15. The coffee-maker will indicate when it is ready with a
beep and a hand will be displayed on the screen.
N.B. You can turn off the beep by proceeding as indicated in
chapter 18 PROGRAMMING YOUR COFFEE-MAKER.
10 SUGAR CUBE COMPARTMENT
If you normally use sugar cubes, you
can store them in the coffee-maker.
Lift the sugar cube compartment
cover and place the cubes inside. This
compartment can be removed for
cleaning and to make the filling proc-
ess easier.
IMPORTANT! Take care not to place
the sugar cubes in the ground coffee
dispenser by mistake.
11 ADJUSTMENTS
A) By adjusting the grinding level
You can regulate the size of the ground coffee.
This size has a direct effect on the coffee made
by the coffee-maker and it is advisable to test
the grinding level until you obtain the type of
grind you prefer. To adjust the grinding level, use the regula-
tor inside the coffee bean tank.
* Fine grind: The coffee will brew more slowly since it needs
more time and pressure to obtain the coffee. Turn the regula-
tor to the left (anticlockwise). The finer the grind, the creamier
the coffee will be.
important! If you grind the coffee too finely (grinding level
regulator full to the left), the coffee will brew very slowly.
* Coarse grind: The coffee will brew more quickly. Press and
turn the regulator to the right (clockwise).
IMPORTANT!
The adjustment must be made when the grinder is in op-
eration.
Use coffee bean blends specially prepared for espresso cof-
fee. If you do not obtain the desired result, try different blends
until you get the one you prefer. Store any coffee not placed
in the tank in a hermetically closed compartment in a cool
place.
IMPORTANT! Do not use high roast coffee; this type of
coffee is roasted with sugar (caramelised) and may dam-
age the coffee-maker.
