cold water pumped in this way cools down
the heating system. During the pumping
cycles, the excess steam contained in the
heating system is released along with hot
water into the drip tray. The release of
steam and the accompanying noise are
required for the appliance to cool down.
Caution: during and after use, the metal
parts of the nozzle (E) and the cappuccino
accessory (F) are very hot.

Recipes
Savour your espresso just as you like it:
when you want to relax or to round off a
good meal.
Here are a few recipes which you will be
able to create with your espresso machine.
. Original espresso
• Take one measuring spoonful of good qua-
lity well roasted espresso coffee, and run it
directly into the pre-heated cup.
If you use good, finely ground coffee, the
cup will be crowned by a fine head of froth.
• Add sugar if desired and treat yourself.
Original espresso is drunk without milk but
plenty of sugar.
. Cappuccino
For a state of the art cappuccino, the ideal
quantities are as follows: 1/3 coffee, 1/3 hot
milk, 1/3 milk froth. The quantity of hot milk
+ froth obtained should be about double the
amount of coffee prepared.
• Use large cups which have been pre-hea-
ted.
• Fill them with coffee to the equivalent of
one cup of espresso and top up with milk
which has been frothed up using the cap-
puccino accessory.
• Lastly, sprinkle with drinking chocolate
powder.
. Café crème
• Prepare a classic espresso in a large cup.
• Add a cloud of cream to make an espresso
with milk.
You can also replace the cream with hot
milk.
. Caffe corretto *
• Prepare a cup of espresso in the normal
way.
