1) Remove the water tank ⑨ and fill it with water: Fill it with water to at least the Min marking. Never fill it past the Max marking.
2) Replace the water tank ⑨ in the machine.
Heating after a long time of inactivity / during first use
If you have not used it for some time, preheat the appliance as follows:
1) Fill the water tank ⑨ with tap water. 2) Place either the large 19 or the small espresso sieve 20 in the sieve holder 18:
- Make sure that the small indentation on the large 19 or small espresso sieve 20 is located above the indentation on the sieve holder 18 when inserted.
- Then turn the large 19 or small espresso sieve 20 slightly to ensure it cannot fall out.
NOTE
▶ Wait until the espresso sieve 19 20 has cooled down before taking it out! In order to remove the espresso sieves 19 20 from the sieve holder 18, turn the inserted espresso sieve 19 20 until the indentation on the espresso sieve 19 20 is located directly above the indentation on the sieve holder 18. You can now remove the espresso sieve 19 20.
3) Place the sieve holder 18 in the appliance by inserting the "INSERT" mark, which is located next to the hot water shower 14, into the appliance and then turning it clockwise until the handle of the sieve holder 18 is facing the front ("LOCK" mark).

8) After about 1 minute, stop the pump by pressing the "Espresso" button again.
9) Wait until the "Espresso" control lamp 15 lights up continuously (if it is not already lit). The warming-up is concluded. You can now prepare espresso.
Heating up before every use
Before you can prepare an espresso or cappuccino, the appliance must be heated up.
1) Switch the appliance on using the On/Off switch ①. The red operating lamp ⑯ lights up. The "Espresso" control lamp ⑮ flashes green. Make sure that the steam control ⑦ is turned in the direction of the "●" as far as the stop. 2) Place the sieve holder 18 in the appliance by inserting the "INSERT" mark, which is located next to the hot water shower 14, into the appliance and then turning it clockwise until the handle of the sieve holder 18 is facing the front ("LOCK" mark). 3) Press the "Espresso" button ☐ ③ so that the appliance draws water from the water tank ⑨. As soon as water starts exiting the openings in the sieve holder, press the "Espresso" button ☐ ③ again to stop the pump. 4) Wait until the "Espresso" control lamp 15 lights up continuously. 5) Press the "Espresso" button ☐③ again and allow hot water to flow through for 20 seconds before stopping the pump again.
The preheating process is completed. You can now make an espresso/cappuccino.
Preparing espresso
NOTE
▶ Always ensure that the espresso sieve 19 20 is clean and free of coffee powder residues.
1) When the appliance is heated up: To prepare an espresso, place the small espresso sieve 20 into the sieve holder 18. To prepare two espressos, place the large espresso sieve 19 into the sieve holder 18.
2) Fill the small espresso sieve ⑳ with espresso powder up to the Max marking. This corresponds to approx. 7 g of powder or a level measuring spoon ②1. Or...
Fill the large espresso sieve ⑲ with espresso powder up to the Max marking. This equates to about 7 g + 7 g of powder or two level measuring spoons ⑳.
3) Tamp down the espresso powder using the compactor on the measuring spoon 21. Add more espresso powder, if required, until the espresso sieve 19 20 is full up to the Max marking. Tamp the coffee powder down once again.
NOTE
▶ Compaction of the coffee powder is an essential process for the preparation of an espresso. If the espresso powder is compacted very strongly, the espresso runs through more slowly and more crema is generated. If the espresso powder is not so strongly compacted, the espresso runs through more quickly and it creates very little crema.
4) Place the sieve holder 18 in the appliance at the "INSERT" mark, then turn it clockwise until the handle of the sieve holder 18 is facing the front ("LOCK" mark).
5) Place one (or two) cup(s) under the sieve holder openings. We recommend that you rinse the cups out with hot water beforehand, so that the espresso does not cool so quickly. You can place the cups onto the storage space 6.
6) As soon as the "Espresso" control lamp ⑮ lights up continuously, press the "Espresso" button ☐ ③. The espresso flows into the cup(s).
WARNING
Never remove the sieve holder Ⓗ while the espresso is coming out!
The resulting spray of hot espresso would lead to injury!
▶ Always press the "Espresso" button ③ again to stop the espresso output before removing the portafilter ⑱
7) Once the cups are filled up to the required amount (about 20 ml per cup), press the "Espresso" button ☐ ③ to stop the water being pumped through.
You can now drink the espresso.
8) Switch the appliance off with the on/off switch ①.
NOTE
If the "Espresso" ③ or "Steam" 🔊 ④ buttons are not pressed for about 30 minutes, the appliance switches off automatically.
9) After every use, remove the used espresso powder from the espresso sieve 19 20. Remove the sieve holder 18 from the appliance. To do this, fold the sieve blocker 17 upwards so that the espresso sieve 19 20 cannot fall out of the sieve carrier 18. Now empty the espresso sieve 19 20 by turning the sieve holder 18 and the blocked espresso sieve 19 20 over and knocking the espresso powder out. Always dispose of the espresso powder in an environmentally friendly manner, e.g. with the organic waste.
NOTE
Clean the hot water shower 14 (the hot water comes out of this) after each use. See also the section "Cleaning and Care".
NOTE
▶ Empty the drip tray ⑫ regularly, at the latest when the red float ⑬ is visible in the hole of the drip grille ⑪.
Preparing cappuccino
WARNING
Be careful when working with steam for the milk froth production!
The hot steam or hot splashes can lead to injuries!
▶ Always operate the steam control ⑦ slowly.
1) Fill a container for frothing (preferably made of stainless steel) to one third with cold milk.
2) Ensure that the steam control ⑦ is closed (turn it as far as it will go in the direction "●").
3) Push the milk frother ⑩ out to the side. Always hold it by the handle ⑧.
4) Press the "Steam" button ⏻ ④. Wait until the "Steam" control lamp ⑤ lights up continuously.
5) Hold an empty container under the milk frother ⑩. Slowly turn the steam control ⑦ in the direction “☐/▲”. Pressurised water/spray comes from the nozzle. This cleans the nozzle and the water circuit inside the appliance.
6) Wait 15 seconds and turn the steam control ⑦ towards "●" until no more steam comes out of the nozzle. Pour the water in the container away.
7) Now hold the frothing container in your hand to feel the milk temperature and guide the nozzle of the milk frother ⑩ gently into the milk. Hold the frothing container at a slight angle.
8) Slowly turn the steam control ⑦ in the direction " 🔊/▲▲".
9) Move the frothing container around in a circular motion while keeping the tip of the nozzle under the surface of the milk: deep enough that the milk does not spray out, but shallow enough to create a thick froth. Done properly, a deep buzzing sound is audible.
10) As the milk froth rises, push the nozzle deeper into the milk to froth up the next "layer" and to avoid a burnt taste in the froth.
11) Finally, insert the nozzle completely and close the steam control ⑦ approximately halfway, so that the milk is heated. Hold the frothing container at a slight angle, so that the milk gently swirls around while it is being stirred with the nozzle.
12) Once the milk froth has reached the desired consistency and temperature, turn the steam control ⑦ to off (up to the stop in the direction of the "●").
13) Now you can remove the nozzle from the milk.
14) Proceed as described in the section "Cleaning the milk frother".
NOTE
For cappuccino, always use bigger cups than for espresso because frothed milk will be added.
15) To prepare cappuccino, proceed exactly as you would for espresso (see section "Preparing espresso"; preheating is no longer necessary). Allow the water to flow through for about twice as long as an espresso (about 40 ml).
NOTE
The "Espresso" control lamp ⑮ may flash rapidly, if you press the "Espresso" button ⑦ directly after preparing frothed milk. This means that the appliance is too hot to prepare a perfect espresso. You can either continue making an espresso anyway or allow the appliance to cool down. As soon as the "Espresso" control lamp ⑮ lights up continuously, the optimum temperature range for espresso has been reached again.
16) Switch the appliance off with the On/Off switch ①.
NOTE
If the "Espresso" ③ or "Steam" ④ buttons are not pressed for about 30 minutes, the appliance switches off automatically.
17) Now add the frothed milk into the previously prepared espresso. The cappuccino is now ready. You can add sugar or sprinkle it with cocoa powder according to taste.
NOTE
▶ Always clean the milk frother 10 after every use. See also the section "Cleaning and Care".
Tips for the milk froth
■ Generally, any type of milk can be frothed, including soy and rice milk. However, some types of milk can only be frothed to a certain extent.
■ Low fat or skimmed milk does not burn as easily as whole milk, however, a too low fat content adds to the risk that the milk will not be well frothed. Therefore use a milk with a fat content of 3.5% or 1.5%, if possible.
■ Well-cooled milk can be better frothed than less cold. For the best results, use milk at a temperature of about 7°C.
■ Do not froth the milk a second time, otherwise it may burn.
- Allow frothed milk to stand for about 30 seconds before you pour it onto the espresso. This allows the larger bubbles to burst; the still liquid milk sinks to the bottom. You can then pour the fine froth onto the espresso.
Drawing hot water
You can also use the milk frother 10 to draw hot water; for example, to dilute a coffee (café americano) or prepare tea.
1) Switch the appliance on using the On/Off switch ①. The red operating lamp ⑯ lights up. The "Espresso" control lamp ⑮ flashes green. Make sure that the steam control ⑦ is turned in the direction of the "●" as far as the stop. Wait until the pointer of the temperature indicator ② is approximately half way between 80°C and "☐" and the "Espresso" control lamp ⑮ lights up continuously.
2) Hold a heat-resistant container under the milk frother ⑩.
3) Turn the steam control ⑦ at least half way towards "☐/☐".
4) Press the "Espresso" button ☐ ③. Hot water will come out of the milk frother ⑩.
5) Press the "Espresso" button ☐ 3 again to stop the flow of hot water.
