"INSERT" (fig. 10), then turn the handle to the right until it is
aligned in the "CLOSE" position;
5. Place a container under the filter holder and the steam
wand (A6);
6. Press the OK button (B5): delivery will start (fig. 11);
7. When delivery has finished, turn the steam dial (A4) (fig.
12) and release the jet for a few seconds so as to rinse the
steam circuit: to ensure best possible results, repeat the
operation 3 or 4 times. The purpose of this procedure is
to purge any water from the circuit before using steam to
prepare a beverage.
The appliance is ready for use.
Please note:
We also recommend rinsing the internal circuits if the appliance is
not used for a long period.
The first time you use the appliance, you need to make 4-5 cups
of coffee before the appliance starts to give satisfactory results.
Pay particular attention to the quantity of pre-ground coffee
in the filter ((C2) or (C3)) (see instructions in section "4.1 Step
1 - Grinding").
Proceed as described in section "The "perfect dose"".
4. PREPARATION OF COFFEE
4.1 Step 1 - Grinding
1. Put coffee beans in the container (A2) (fig. 13). It is best to
grind only a quantity of beans sufficient for immediate use,
so that the coffee will always be fresh.
2. Select the grinding level (fig. 14). The factory setting is 5
(medium ground). If this is too fine or too coarse, adjust
the level according to personal taste and to the type of cof-
fee being used (the adjustment must be made only when
the coffee mill is in operation).
Please note: A grinding level between 3 and 6 is recommended
for most coffees. A grinding level of 1 or 2 is very fine and should
be used with special coffees only (light roasted)
3. Place the ground coffee filter (C2) or (C3) in the filter holder
(C1) (fig. 15); If the 2-cup filter is in use, press the 2x button
(B3): this will also double the quantity of espresso coffee
delivered from the spout.
4. Set the quantity by adjusting the dial (B2), starting from
the minimum position (fig. 16).
Refer to the section on "Adjusting the quantity of ground coffee
in the filter" for further indications.
5. Attach the filter holder to the outlet of the coffee mill
(A19), aligning it with "INSERT", then turning it to the right.
Grinding begins when the filter holder reaches the CLOSE
position, then stops automatically.
Adjusting the quantity of ground coffee in the filter
MEDIUM
LIGHT
X-LIGHT
Different varieties of coffee bean give different results when
ground: consequently, the initial adjustment of the dosage re-
quires special care.
This illustration shows how to regulate the dosage, based on the
roast colour: this should be taken as a general guide, given that
in practice, the final adjustment can vary according to the com-
position of the beans.
1. Set the dosage starting from the minimum position.
2. Looking at the roast colour of your particular beans, turn
the dial slowly to find the right adjustment.
4.2 Step 2 - Tamping
1. Following the grinding step, bring the tamping lever (A20)
down completely (keeping the filter in place under the
outlet) (fig. 17). For a perfect result, repeat the step twice.
2. Keep the tamping lever fully down when removing the
filter holder (fig 18) and then return the lever to its initial
position.
3. Having checked that the dosage is as required (see "The
"perfect dose""), attach the filter holder to the brewer out-
let (A18) (fig. 19).
Please note: Coffee left on the edges of the filter after pressing
does not in any way compromise the quality of the brewing and
therefore the end result.
The "perfect dose"
•
A reference mark inside the coffee filters identifies the per-
fect quantity.
Laser marking
-
Laser marked filters: the perfect quantity corresponds
to the top line of the mark.
-
Filters with relief mark: the perfect quantity corre-
sponds to the line in relief.
•
Make sure the coffee is at the right level after tamping. It
might be necessary to adjust the level a few times using the
dial (B2) before the ideal dosage is achieved.
