Possibility of requesting other cups of coffee:
After coffee preparation is requested, the control light (21) starts blinking and continues until dispensing has finished
to indicate that the operation is in progress. When the control light goes back to being on steadily, you can ask for
the immediate preparation of another cup of coffee by pressing one of the buttons (24, 25).
Grinding
The machine has a factory-set grinding level, which takes into account the average characteristics of the most
popular coffee blends. If the coffee comes out too quickly (excessively coarse grinding) or too slowly (excessively
fine grinding), you can adjust the grinding level by unlocking the coffee container through the lever (11) Fig. 4
and turning it to the desired position of the adjustment scale: turn in a clockwise direction in order to obtain finer
ground coffee or an anti-clockwise direction for coarser ground coffee (THIS OPERATION MUST BE CARRIED
OUT WHILE THE MACHINE IS SWITCHED OFF).
You should also try other coffee blends, as not all blends are suitable. The grinding level variation will only be
noticeable after making two or three cups of coffee.
In the case of blends with particular characteristics, correction can be made as follows:
- if the coffee comes out too slowly (drop by drop), adjust to a coarser grinding level by turning the coffee
container anti-clockwise by one or two clicks;
- on the contrary, if the coffee comes out too quickly and is not creamy, adjust to a finer grinding level by
turning the container clockwise by one or two clicks.
After having adjusted the grinder, make sure that the lever (11 Fig. 4) has gone back to its original position,
checking that the coffee container can no longer turn.
Water Quality
In addition to the coffee blend, grinding and right water temperature, water quality is also very important in the
preparation of a top quality espresso.
We therefore recommend using water with a low limestone content which, as well as guaranteeing a better
tasting coffee, protects the machine interior from the formation of incrustations.
Empty the water reservoir every day and fill it with fresh water.
Never use water with added carbon dioxide (sparkling water).
Operating Time
The machine can remain switched on all day long. However, in the case of prolonged inactivity, we recommend
switching it off by pressing switch (22). Once it is switched back on it will be ready for use in a few minutes.
If the appliance is not switched off via button (22), it will automatically shut down after approx. 3 hours from the
last time it was used.
Switching the Machine Off
Only switch the machine off when the coffee and/or the other operating cycles have been completed.
Hot Water
The hot water supply circuit is separated from the coffee circuit, so as to provide neutral-tasting hot water for tea,
stock, infusions, etc.
Place the glass or cup directly under the steam/hot water spout and slowly open the tap in an anti-clockwise
direction. The hot water will be dispensed automatically. Close the tap in order to end the supply.
