6 TIPS FOR CHOOSING COFFEE As a general rule, any type of coffee available on the market can be used. However, coffee is a natural product, and its flavour changes according to its origin and blend. Therefore, itis a good idea to try different types of coffee in order to find the most suited to your personal taste. For best results, we recommend

using blends which are made especially for espresso coffee machines. Coffee should always flow out of the portafler, and it should not dispense with a dripping effect. The brewing speed can be modified by slightiy changing the amount of coffee in the filter andlor using a different coffee grind.

When making coffee from pods, Saeco recommends using single-dose coffee pods marked E.S.E. for a great- tasting espresso and an easy clean-up.

BEFORE USING THE HOT WATER/STEAM KNOB, MAKE SURE THAT THE STEAM SPOUT (PANNARELLO) IS POSITIONED OVER THE DRIP TRAY.

7__ HOT WATER Danger of burns! Brewing may be preceded by ÂÀ small jets of hotwater. The spout can reach high emperatures: Never touch it with bare hands.

+ (Fig.4B) - Ifthe machine is of, switch it on by means of the power button (2). The power light (3) wil iluminate. Wait until he machine ready light (5) turns on.

{Fig.17) - Place a container or à cup under the steam spout (Pannarello). Open the knob (7)

(Fig. 18) - Press the brew button (4).

When the desired amount of hot water has been dispensed, press the brew button (4) again.

{Fig.19) - Close the knob (7), then remove the hot water container.

8 STEAM /CAPPUCCINO Danger of burns! Brewing may be preceded by small jets of hotwater. The spout can reach high temperatures: Never touch it with bare hands.

+ (Fig.4B) - Ifthe machine is of, switch it on by means of the power button (2). The power light (3) wil iluminate.

+ Wait until the machine ready light (5) turns on.

+ (Fig.20)- Press the steam button (6). The machine ready light (5) tuns of.

Wait until {he machine ready light (5) tums on again. The machine is now ready to dispense steam.

(Fig.17) - Insert a container below the steam spout and open the knob (7) for a few seconds, so that any residual water flows out ofthe steam spout (Pannarello). Wait until there is a steady jet of steam coming out of the spout. {Fig.19) - Close {he knob (7) and remove the container. Fil 1/3 of a frothing pitcher or large mug with cold mik.

Use cold milk to get better results whenfrothing. Milk [with higher fat content will produce thicker froth.

{Fig.21) - Immerse the Pannarello spout in the milk and open the knob (7). Rotate the container with slow upward movements so that it warms evenly.

{Fig.22) - After frothing the milk, close the knob (7), and remove the pitcher/cup with frothed milk.

10 DESCALING THE MACHINE Limescale is a result of mineral deposits from water. This normally builds up with the use of the appliance. Descaling is necessary every 2-3 working months and/or when you notice any reduction in water flow.

You can use a non-toxic and/or non-harmful

descaling product for coffee machines, commonly available in retail stores. We recommend using Saeco descaling solution.

À Warning! Do not use vinegar or lemon juice as a descaler.
