1 Important information on the appliance and instructions
You will find in this manual all of the important information concerning the preparation, use and maintenance of your automatic espresso/coffee maker. Important safety guidelines are also included.
Read these instructions carefully before using the appliance for the first time and keep them: Krups may not be held responsible for any incorrect use.
1.1 Your Automatic Espresseria
Espresso or lungo, ristretto or cappuccino, your automatic espresso/coffee maker has been designed to allow you to taste the same coffee at home as in a coffee bar at any time of the day. With its Thermoblock System, 15 bar pump and using only freshly ground coffee, your Automatic Espresseria will allow you to make a full flavoured drink, topped with a deliciously thick, golden froth, a product that comes from the natural oil of the coffee beans. Espresso coffee has a richer aroma than a normal, filter coffee. In spite of its stronger taste, stronger initially and longer lasting, espresso coffee in fact contains less caffeine than filter coffee (approximately 20 mg less per cup). This is due to the shorter percolation.
With its simplicity of use, the visibility of its tank/holder and its automatic cleaning and descaling programmes, your Automatic Espresseria will prove very easy to use.

3 First use of your Automatic Espresseria

Danger : Connect the appliance to a mains socket of 230 V that is earthed.
Failure to do so means that you run the risk of fatal injury due to electricity!
Respect the safety guidelines (see point 1.3).
Installing the appliance
Place your machine on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface. Ensure that the location
chosen is sufficiently ventilated as the appliance gives off heat.
3.1 Before using for the first time
Before using the appliance for the first time, check the hardness of your water so that you can adapt the appliance to suit. This operation is also to be carried out when you use your machine in a place where the hardness of the water is
different or if you notice a difference in the hardness of the water.
To check the water hardness, use the stick supplied with your machine or contact your local water authority.
Measuring the water hardness
| Fill a glass of water and immerse the stick in it for several seconds.Wait for a minute before reading the water hardness.The red zones on the stick indicate the degree of hardness: no red zone = class 0, One red zone = class 1, etc. (see illustration). | ![]() |
| The hardness class observed (from 0 to 4) will be requested during the initial set up of the machine described in point 3.3 in the "water hardness" sub-menu. Use the data in the table below for this purpose : |
| Degree of hardness | Class 0 Class 1 Class 2 Class 3 Class 4 | ||||
| °dH | <3°>4° | >7°>14°>21° | |||
| °e | <3,75° | >5° | >8,75° | >17,5° | >26,25° |
| °f | <5,4° | >7,2° | >12,6° | >25,2° | >37,8° |
| Setting the appliance | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |
Table 2: The water hardness classes for the initial setting of the appliance (point 3.3).
Installing the filter cartridge (optional)
The Krups Aqua Filter System F088 cartridge improves the taste of your water. It is made of an anti-scale substance like activated carbon, which reduces chlorine, impurities, lead, copper, pesticides, etc. present in water (Reduction of the carbonate hardness of up to 75%*, chlorine up
to 85%*, lead up to 90%*, copper up to 95%*, aluminium up to 67%*). Minerals and trace elements are conserved.

4 Use
Respecting the instructions below will ensure good results. Several tests will probably be required to find the mix and roasting of the coffee beans to your taste.
The quality of the water used is also a factor in the taste of your coffee. Ensure that the water is fresh from the tap, that it is cold and that it does not smell of chlorine.
Do not use stagnant water.
Caution : Your appliance is only designed to use coffee beans. When preparing your first coffee, after several days without using the machine or after carrying out maintenance, a little steam or hot water will come out of the steam nozzle. Keep at a safe distance from the steam nozzle and place a cup underneath the outlets to avoid any risk of burns or splashes with the steam or hot water. The main commands are described below :
The coffee outlet
The height of the coffee outlet is adjustable. Raise it to fit or remove taller
cups more easily.
The steam nozzle
The steam nozzle can be moved to the left or right and tilted forward slightly,
which allows the cup underneath to be removed more easily.
The drip tray
This tray collects the water used by the appliance or spilled during preparation. The machine warns against this by means
of a mechanical float system (22) when the tray needs to be emptied.
4.1 Switching on the appliance
| Press the ON/OFF button (1). | ![]() |
| →A welcome message is displayed on the screen, then another warning that the appliance is preheating. Next a question will appear on the screen asking if the appliance needs to be rinsed or not. | Note: If the machine has not been used for several days, it must be rinsed. |
If required, rinse it (see point 3.4) or validate the "No" proposition by pressing "OK".
→ The screen then displays the drink selection menu.
If you want to prepare an espresso or a coffee, read the instructions in point 4.2. To prepare a cappuccino, refer to point 4.3.

To stop the drink being dispensed, because the cup is full or any other reason by turning the knob. |
| Wait for the end of the dispensing and the message "Drink ready" to be displayed on the screen before removing the cup. |
Caution: DO NOT REMOVE THE HOLDER BEFORE THE END OF THE CYCLE (i.e. 15 seconds after the coffee has started to be dispensed).
4.3 Preparation of a cappuccino
Cappuccino is a drink prepared with an espresso and frothed milk. Cappuccino lovers prepare the frothed milk first and then add the espresso as the espresso loses its exceptional aroma very quickly. The proportion of frothed milk to the espresso is the same but of course you can adapt it to your own taste. We
recommend that you use very fresh semi-skimmed milk.
! Tip : Preferably use a cappuccino cup as it is not as high and can contain a large volume; it is therefore easier to remove it from the steam nozzle.
Preparation of frothed milk with steam
| Press the Steam button (5).→ The machine preheats. A message then invites you to place a recipient under the steam nozzle. | ![]() |
| Place a recipient or a cappuccino cup filled halfway with fresh cold milk (6 to 10°C) underneath the steam nozzle (21) and press the Steam button. | ! Note: If the end of the steam nozzle does not reach the milk, raise the cup until the frothing is complete. |
| As soon as steam production is started, the remaining production time is displayed in seconds on the screen. Two options are available:A) You can increase or reduce the time displayed with the knob and wait until the steam production stops automatically.B) You can stop the steam production at any time by pressing the Steam button. | Important: the production of steam does not stop immediately after pressing the Steam button.Press the button early enough to avoid overflows. |
| Remove the cappuccino cup and place it underneath the coffee tube (20). | Important: Remove the nozzle and pass it underneath running water immediately (see point 5.1). Fit it again and place a recipient underneath and press the Steam button in order to remove any residues of milk from the inside. Let the steam flow for at least 10 seconds. |
| Add an espresso or a coffee depending on the drink you wish to prepare following the instructions described in point 4.2. | |
| Remove the cup and add a little sugar or chocolate shavings to your taste. |
4.4 Using the auto-cappuccino accessory (optional)
The XS 6000 auto-cappuccino accessory facilitates the preparation of a cappuccino or caffe latte (white coffee) with your Automatic Espresseria. The
accessory includes a brushed stainless steel milk jug, a riser tube and a connector tube, and a special nozzle.

5 Maintenance and cleaning
Danger : Any contact of the conductive parts of the appliance with humidity or water may lead to fatal injuries due to the presence of electricity!
Before cleaning your machine, unplug it from the mains socket and leave it to cool down.
Before moving or tilting the appliance,
ensure that the drip tray is empty to avoid water or the cleaning or descaling product from being spilt.
Tip : When cleaning or descaling the steam nozzle, water may be splashed quite forcefully. Place a paper towel on the drip tray and the steam nozzle.
5.1 Regular maintenance
Certain parts of your machine require regular maintenance :
The used coffee collector (7): the used coffee collector collects the used coffee. On the screen, a message indicates when the collector needs to be emptied. In general it needs to be emptied after preparing 9 coffees. From time to time, pass the collector under running water to clean it. Dry it thoroughly.
Important : Ensure that the used coffee collector is completely emptied to avoid any overflow. If the collector is not fitted correctly, the warning message will remain on the screen. If the used coffee collector is fitted in less than 6 seconds, the appliance will ask for confirmation, using the OK button, that it has been emptied. No preparations can be made until the message is cleared.
The cleaning drawer (8): this drawer is used to eliminate any deposits of used coffee from the appliance. Remove the cleaning drawer before emptying the used coffee collector. If the drawer is very dirty, pass it under running water then dry it.
The drip tray (23): the drip tray collects the used water as well as water spilt du-
ring preparations. A message on the screen indicates when the tray needs to be emptied. The appliance also has a mechanical water gauge (22). If the tray is dirty, clean it by passing it under running water.
Coffee circuit : the coffee circuit pipes must be rinsed if the appliance has not been used for several days.
Every time that the appliance is switched on, a message on the screen asks if you wish to rinse it (rinsing procedure, see point 3.4).
Ensure that the steam nozzle (21) is cleaned thoroughly after several uses: remove it and pass it under running water. It may be removed for cleaning (see illustration). Use a rinsing brush and a little washing up liquid. Dry all parts thoroughly and ensure that the air inlets are not blocked. Use the cleaning wire supplied with your machine to unblock the holes if necessary.
