Preparing Hot Water - Krups Nespresso 893 Manual Del Usario

We recommend turning the function selector
to position for about 5 sec. before the
first coffee and after the last coffee of the day
in order to quickly rinse the system and thus
avoid particles of coffee sticking together.
Then wait 30 sec. before starting the
appliance again.
• Remove the capsule holder then place the
capsule upside down in the capsule holder
(10) ; each one contains a single dose of
fresh coffee for a cup of espresso.
• Replace the capsule holder and press until
the handle is facing you or very slightly
offset to the left (11).
• Place the pre-heated cup under the "coffee"
outlet.
• Set the function selector to position
(12).
Once the espresso is finished, reset the
function selector to
holder and throw away the used capsule (13).
To ensure that your next espresso is prepared
at the optimum temperature, replace the
empty capsule holder to retain its heat.

Making steam
Steam makes the milk frothy for a cappuc-
cino, and also preheats cups or any kind of
liquid; the noise you hear during this

Please note :
Before making steam, make sure that the
capsule holder on the machine is empty
to prevent the coffee becoming dried out
and blocking the hole in the coffee outlet.
Frothing milk for a cappuccino
You can make the milk frothy in order to whip
up a cappuccino. For best results, use the
accessory specially designed for this purpose.
Fit it onto the steam nozzle (15).
Please note:
This accessory must only be used for this
purpose.
• Pour about 100 ml of skimmed milk into a
small high-sided container (maximum
capacity 0.5 L) which will fit beneath the
steam nozzle; the container must also be
chilled (do not rinse it in hot water before
use).
• First prepare an espresso, but only fill the
cup halfway.
• When the yellow temperature indicator light
goes out, dip the the steam nozzle in the
container holding the milk in such a way
that its end is completely immersed in the
milk.
• Turn the function selector to position

container and make sure that the nozzle
does not touch the bottom, as this would
prevent steam from escaping. Once the
operation is finished, turn the function
selector to position

selector just for a second to position

which might remain in the end of the
nozzle. Clean the nozzle immediately with a
