5. MAkING AN ESPrESSO

In order to release all the aromas of the coffee and ensure your complete satisfaction, this machine pre-
infuses each coffee. The pump works for 3 seconds, stops the following 3 seconds and then the cycle
continues until the end of the preparation.
PREHEATING THE ACCESSORIES
For the best results, we recommend that you preheat the accessories (filter holder and cups) without
espresso ground coffee. To do so:
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on. (fig.1, 2, 3 and 4).
n Put the filter holder in place, place the cups below.
As soon as the appliance reaches the required temperature, the light stops flashing.
n Turn the switch to the "coffee" position (fig.8).
n When the cups are filled with hot water, turn the switch to the "off" position. (fig.9).
n remove the cups.
n unlock the filter holder: press "OPEN" while turning the filter holder to the left and remove it from the
machine. (fig.10).
Note: When the appliance is hot, the espresso cups can be preheated on the cup warming plate.
WITH GROUND COffEE
The type of coffee you choose will determine the strength and taste of your espresso. Always
use espresso ground coffee. Do not use instant coffee, cafetiere coffee or filter coffee.
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4). During the preheating of the appliance,
the light flashes.
n using the measuring spoon, place the espresso ground coffee in the filter holder: one spoon (full to
the brim) per cup (fig.5).
n remove any excess espresso ground coffee from the edge of the filter.
Important: Do not tamp the coffee down in the filter holder. The coffee is automatically
tamped using the KTS "Krups Tamping System".
n Insert the filter holder in the device by turning it to the right as far as it will go, up to the stop

position and let the water run until
n Turn the switch to the "coffee" position (fig.8).
n When you have the desired amount of coffee, turn the switch to the "off" position (fig.9).
n unlock the filter holder: press "OPEN" while turning the filter holder to the left and remove it from the
machine (fig. 10).
n remove the used espresso coffee grounds using the ejection system by pressing the "EJECT" button
located between the two coffee outlet nozzles (fig.11). Wash the filter holder under running water,
pressing "EJECT" to eliminate the remnants of grounds.
The filter holder now can be filled again to prepare other espressos.
WITH AN "E.S.E." ESPRESSO POD
"ESE" for "Easy Serving Espresso" is a packaged pod (44 mm diameter) of 7g of selected
coffee, ground and compacted between two paper filters, specially designed to make Italian
style ristretto (tight) espressos.
This system allows immediate, simple, clean and comfortable use of your machine.
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4). During the pre-heating phase, the
indicator lamp will flash.
n Tear the excess paper off the pod, put the E.S.E. pod in the filter holder, with the red writing facing
down (fig.6).
Be sure to place all the paper inside the filter holder, otherwise there might be leaks.
n If the pod is not positioned correctly, the result in the cup will not be satisfactory.
n Never use two pods together.
n Then, follow steps of pictures 7 to 11.
WITH A SOfT POD
Your machine is also compatible with soft pods (usually 60 mm in diameter). Given that this
kind of pod is not specifically designed for espresso machines, you will get a less full-bodied
espresso than with an E.S.E. pod.
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4). During the pre-heating phase, the
indicator lamp will flash.
n Place a soft pod in the filter holder. Never use two pods together. If the pod is not positioned correctly,
the result in the cup will not be satisfactory.
n Then, follow steps of pictures 7 to 11.

6. STEAM FuNCTION

Steam is used to foam up milk (for example to make a cappuccino or a cafe latte) thanks to the
cappuccino accessory.
To produce steam, the pump works by emitting an intermittent noise.
After using the steam function, the appliance cools automatically by pumping cold water through
the heating system. During the pumping cycles, the excess steam in the heating system is released with
the hot water into the drip tray. The steam and noise that accompany this phase are important
for cooling the appliance.
Warning: during and after using the appliance, the metal parts of the steam nozzle can become very hot.
USING THE STEAM NOZZLE TO fROTH MILK
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4).
n Turn the switch to the "steam preheating" position. The indicator lamp flashes (fig.12).
