Frequently Asked Questions - Intuition Preference+ EA875U KRUPS

How to descale my Intuition Preference+ EA875U machine?

Use the automatic descaling program. Fill the tank with a mixture of water and Krups descaler, then run the cycle via the menu. Then rinse with clean water.

Why is my coffee not hot?

Check that the temperature is set to 'high'. If the problem persists, run a rinse cycle or descale the machine. Limescale buildup can reduce the temperature.

How to clean the milk system?

After each use, activate the milk circuit cleaning program via the menu. You can also disassemble the steam wand and soak it in hot soapy water.

What to do if the red light flashes?

The red light usually indicates a need for descaling or an empty tank. Check the manual for the exact code. Perform descaling or fill the tank.

How to adjust the grind fineness?

Turn the adjustment knob inside the bean compartment. Start with a medium setting, then adjust to your taste. Be careful not to change the setting while grinding.

The machine makes an abnormal noise, what should I do?

A loud noise may be due to very hard beans or a foreign object in the grinder. Stop the machine, empty the bean hopper and check for obstructions. If the noise persists, contact customer service.

Can I use ground coffee in this machine?

Yes, you can use ground coffee via the compartment provided (next to the bean hopper). Use a measuring scoop and respect the quantities.

How to fully turn off the machine?

Press the on/off button for 2 seconds. The machine will perform a rinse cycle and then turn off. You can also unplug it if not using for a long time.

What to do if the screen shows 'Tank empty' when it is full?

Remove the water tank, empty it, and replace it correctly. Sometimes a sensor is stuck. Clean the bottom of the tank and the sensor with a damp cloth.

How to get a cappuccino with lots of foam?

Use very cold whole milk. Plunge the steam wand into the milk and froth by slightly tilting the pitcher. Your machine's LatteCrema function optimizes the texture.

GETTING STARTED & APPLIANCE SETUP

TURNING THE MACHINE ON

Danger: Connect the appliance to a grounded 230V socket. Not following this instruction puts you at risk of fatal injuries due to the presence of electricity!

Respect the safety information in the "Safety precautions" booklet.

GETTING STARTED (SEE 1.1 FIRST USE)

When using the machine for the first time, you will be asked to select various settings.

Follow the directions that appear on the screen.

Priming the machine allows the water circuits to be filled, so that the machine can operate. Preheating and automatic rinsing will take place.

PUTTING THE MACHINE ON STANDBY

Depending on the preparation, the machine performs automatic rinsing while on standby. The cycle only lasts a few seconds and stops automatically.

TIPS AND TRICKS

Water quality has a strong influence on the quality of the aromas. Limescale and chlorine can alter the taste of coffee. To preserve the aromas of your coffee, we recommend you to use the Claris – Aqua Filter System cartridge, or bottled water with dry residues below 800 mg/L (look on the bottle's label). See the “FILTER AND WATER HARDNESS” section.

When preparing drinks, we recommend using preheated cups (by running them under hot water) of an appropriate size for your desired quantity.

The roasted coffee beans can lose their aroma if they are not protected. We advise that you use an amount of beans equivalent to your consumption over the next 2-3 days and that you choose 250 g bags.

The quality of the coffee beans is variable and tastes are subjective. Arabica will give you fine, floral aromas, while Robusta, which has a higher caffeine content, is more bitter and full-bodied. It is common to mix the two types of coffee to get a more balanced coffee. Contact your roaster for further advice.

We do not recommend using oily and caramelised beans as these can damage the machine.

The fineness of the ground beans influences the strength of the aromas and the quality of the crema. The more finely ground the beans, the smoother the crema. Grinding can also be adapted for the desired drink.

INTUITIVE LIGHT INDICATOR

WHAT DOES THE INTUITIVE LIGHT INDICATOR DO?

Your Intuition machine features smart, bright technology to make your day easier: Intuitive Light Indicator (J). This technology has a dual functionality:

1. The machine automatically detects and controls the levels of coffee beans, water and coffee grounds. When you need to fill or empty your containers, or when maintenance is required, the red light alert comes on, signalling you to follow the information on the screen.
2. You can also customise your experience using the Intuitive Light Indicator. You can choose a colour for each profile. When a profile has been selected, the Intuitive Light Indicator will change to the colour belonging to that profile, making everything simple to understand and ensuring super-fast and intuitive navigation. See the chapter entitled "MY PROFILE".

LET YOURSELF BE GUIDED.

FILTER AND WATER HARDNESS

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE WATER HARDNESS SETTING?

In order to avoid scale build-up in your machine and to optimise the quality of your coffee, we advise you to adjust the water hardness setting on your machine.

HOW TO SET THE WATER HARDNESS ON YOUR MACHINE?

SETTINGS

• Fill a glass of water. Dip the water-hardness testing stick (8) supplied with the machine in your glass of water. Wait for 1 minute. The squares on the stick will change colour.
• Count the number of coloured squares. This indicates the hardness of the water, from 0 to 4. In the "Water Hardness" menu, press the corresponding number between 0 and 4. Press OK.

IF YOU RUN OUT OF WATER-HARDNESS TESTING STICKS

If you need to repeat this operation, remember to adjust the water hardness setting according to the location of use or information provided by your local water company, using the table below:

Degree of hardness	Classe 0 Very soft	Classe 1 Soft	Classe 2 Average hardness	Classe 3 Hard	Classe 4 Very hard
° 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°
Appliance setting	0	1	2	3	4

WHY INSTALL A FILTER CARTRIDGE?

The Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge optimises the taste of coffee, and reduces scaling and maintenance.

WHEN SHOULD I CHANGE THE CLARIS AQUA FILTER SYSTEM CARTRIDGE?

1. Two months after set-up or when your machine notifies you.
2. When changing the cartridge, we recommend that you turn the grey ring on the top of the filter cartridge to indicate the date + two months.

HOW DO I INSTALL THE CLARIS AQUA FILTER SYSTEM CARTRIDGE?

MAINTENANCE

• Place the cartridge in the water container. Position the cartridge, numbered ring facing up. Use the black tightening accessory, supplied with the cartridge, to position and screw the cartridge in place.

GRINDER: ADJUSTING THE FINENESS OF THE GROUND COFFEE

WHY SHOULD I ADJUST THE FINENESS OF THE GROUND COFFEE?

You can choose the strength of your coffee by adjusting how finely the coffee beans are ground.

Varying the fineness of the grinding enables you to adapt to the different types of bean:

Darkly roasted and oily beans require coarse grinding, while a more lightly roasted bean will be drier and will require finer grinding.

Note: the more finely the beans are ground, the more powerful the aroma.

HOW DO I ADJUST THE FINENESS OF THE GROUND COFFEE?

Turn the grinding fineness adjustment button (K) located in the bean container, depending on the type of bean and the desired strength of aroma. This adjustment must be performed when the mill is in operation, notch by notch. After three preparations, you will notice a distinct difference in taste.

HOW DO I KNOW WHEN THERE ARE NO MORE BEANS IN THE CONTAINER?

Your Intuition machine has a sensor to warn you when the level of coffee beans in the container is running low. A message will appear on the screen and the Intuitive Light Indicator (J) will display red light.

WHAT IF THE ALERT APPEARS WHILE I'M MAKING A DRINK?

Fill the coffee bean container, press OK and the recipe will resume. So no coffee is wasted!

WHAT DO I DO IF I WANT TO CHANGE MY COFFEE OR IF I HAVE RUN OUT OF COFFEE?

If you press OK without adding coffee beans, the machine will try to restart and alert you again. If you press OK again, the machine will make the recipe using all of the remaining coffee. The grinder will then be empty.

Caution: We do not recommend using oily and caramelised beans that are difficult for the grinder to process.

These can damage the machine and prevent the intuitive system from functioning correctly.

If an alert message appears on your screen and the red light comes on when there are enough beans:

. Press the OK button to continue the recipe. - Or, turn off the "no bean" alert to prevent detection while there is still coffee in the coffee bean container.

HOW DO I STOP A DRINK MID-PREPARATION?

STOP

Warning: You can stop the preparation of a drink at any time by pressing the button. When a cycle is interrupted, it does not stop immediately. The machine will be unavailable for a time, as indicated by a message on the screen.

MILK-BASED DRINKS

TIPS

For frothed milk, use pasteurised UHT milk straight from the fridge (3–5°C). It is possible to use special milks (micro filtered, raw, fermented, enriched) or plant-based milks (rice, oat or almond milk), but this can give less satisfactory results in terms of quality and quantity of the froth.

HOW DO I START THE PREPARATION OF A MILK-BASED DRINK?

Refer to “2 PREPARING A MILK-BASED RECIPE” earlier in the instructions, or see the “Starting a milky drink” tutorial stored in your machine.

HELP AND TUTORIALS

TEAS AND INFUSIONS

For your teas and infusions, there are three selection buttons so that you can choose the temperature best suited to each type of tea. The temperature used for green tea will be lower than that used for black tea or infusions.

HOW DO I SET THE WATER TEMPERATURE?

SETTINGS

Go to Settings > Water temperature. You can choose between T1, T2 and T3, where T1 is the coolest and T3 is the hottest.

When you decrease/increase the temperature, this will decrease/increase the temperature for each type of tea but the temperature used for green tea will always be lower than that used for black tea or infusions.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Carrying out proper maintenance will optimise the life of your machine and preserve the authentic taste of your coffee.

The drip tray collects the used water and the coffee grounds collector collects the used ground coffee.

Important: The drip tray collects any water or coffee that escapes from the appliance during and after drink preparation. It is important to always leave it in place and to empty it regularly.

WHEN SHOULD I EMPTY THE DRIP TRAY?

When the floats are in the raised position, indicating that it is too full.

When the machine notifies you

You can empty it more regularly, before the machine notifies you, but ensure that the machine is switched on so that it can record that the collector has been emptied.

Important: Not emptying the coffee grounds collector and drip tray regularly as shown above may damage your machine. Do not put it in the dishwasher.

WHY AND HOW DO I MAINTAIN THE MILK SYSTEM AFTER MAKING MILKY DRINKS?

Important: In order to obtain a consistent foam quality, we recommend that you:

1. After each milky drink:

a. Start the machine's rinsing cycle.

You can start a milk system rinsing at any time. To learn how to do this, see the tutorial stored in your machine: "Performing a rinsing".

HELP AND TUTORIALS

b. Thoroughly clean the tube and nozzle with hot water immediately AFTER EACH USE.

You can use the pipe cleaner inside the metal part of the milk tube.

TROUBLESHOOTING

OPERATION

1. The machine has a fault, the software is frozen OR the machine has a malfunction.

Turn off and unplug the machine, remove the filter cartridge, wait one minute and then restart the machine. Press and hold the ON/OFF button for at least three seconds to start the machine.

1. The appliance does not turn on after pressing the ON/OFF button (for at least three seconds).

√ Check the fuses and the electrical power socket. Check that the plug is correctly inserted into the socket.

1. A power failure has occurred during a cycle.

√ The device will reset automatically when it turns back on.

1. The grinder is running empty.

This is normal if it is occasional and there are no or few coffee beans left. It can run empty for up to ten seconds to determine its consumption and ensure that it is working properly. There are still coffee beans in the container:

The coffee may be too oily and is not drawn into the machine properly. You can try encouraging the beans to fall and see if it works again. However, we recommend changing the coffee (see the bean type function).

It is my usual coffee that has worked well up until now: please contact your KRUPS Consumer Service.

USE

1. The grinder makes an abnormal noise.

There are most probably foreign bodies in the grinder. Try to clear it with a vacuum cleaner, otherwise contact your KRUPS Consumer Service.

1. There is water under the appliance.

Before removing the drip tray, wait for 15 seconds after the coffee has flowed so that the machine finishes its cycle correctly. Check that the drip tray is positioned properly on the machine. It must always be in place even when the machine is not in use. Check that the drip tray is not full.

1. The adjustment button for the grinding fineness is difficult to turn.

Only turn the grinding fineness adjustment button when the grinder is running.

1. The appliance has not produced any coffee.

An incident has been detected during preparation.

The appliance resets automatically and is ready for a new cycle.

1. You have used ground coffee instead of coffee beans.

Use your vacuum cleaner to clear the ground coffee from the bean container.

1. Water flows from the coffee nozzles when the machine is stopped.

This is normal. This is an automatic rinse to clean the coffee nozzles and prevent them from getting clogged.

STEAM AND MILK

1. The milk flow from your machine appears to be partially or completely blocked.

An alert message will appear on the screen if the nozzle is blocked. Clean the «One Touch Cappuccino» block. Refer to point 5 earlier in the instructions. MANUAL DEEP CLEANING OF THE MILK DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM – 5 MIN, or see the tutorial stored in your machine “Cleaning the milk nozzle”.

1. No steam comes out.

a. During the first use of a steam cycle, if no steam comes out correctly:

√ Check that the hole in the tip is not clogged. See section above: "The steam nozzle of your machine appears to be partially or completely clogged". √ Carry out the following protocol once and only once:

Empty the water tank and temporarily remove the Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge. Fill the tank with mineral water high in calcium (> 100 mg/L) and make successive steam cycles (5 to 10 cycles) in a container until a continuous jet of steam is obtained. Put the cartridge back in the tank.

b. The steam nozzle had already worked:

√ Check that the hole in the tip is not clogged. See section above: "The steam nozzle of your machine appears to be partially or completely clogged".

If after performing the above steps, the steam Nozzle still doesn't work, please contact KRUPS Consumer Service.

1. Steam escapes from the grid of the drip tray. Depending on the type of preparation, steam may escape from the grid of the drip tray.
2. Steam appears under the bean container lid. √ Check that the cleaning tablet funnel under the cover (L) is closed.

MAINTENANCE

1. The machine does not require descaling. The descaling cycle is requested after preparing a large number of milky or hot water-based drinks. If you only make coffee, descaling will not be required frequently.
2. Some grounds are in the drip tray. √ A small amount of ground coffee can get into the drip tray. The machine is designed to clear any excess ground coffee so that the percolation area remains clean.
3. The Intuitive Light Indicator remains lit after you have emptied the coffee grounds collector. √ Refitting the coffee grounds collector.
4. After filling the water container, the Intuitive Light Indicator stays on. √ Check the container is positioned correctly in the appliance. The floats at the bottom of the tank must move freely. Check and dislodge the floats if necessary.

DRINKS

1. The coffee flows too slowly.

Turn the grinding fineness button to the right for a coarser grind (depending on the type of coffee used). √ Perform one or several rinse cycles. √ Change the Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge.

1. The coffee is too light or not full-bodied enough.

√ Check that the bean container contains coffee and that it is moving down correctly. √ Avoid using oily, caramelised or flavoured coffees that may not be drawn into the machine correctly. Decrease the preparation volume and increase the strength using the coffee strength function. Turn the grinding fineness button to the left for a finer grind. Make your drink in two cycles using the two-cup function.

1. The Espresso or coffee is not hot enough.

√ Increase the coffee temperature in the machine settings. Heat the cup by rinsing it in hot water before preparing the drink. √ Perform a coffee system rinse before starting your coffee. A coffee rinse on start function can be activated in settings/auto-rinse.

1. Clean water flows through the coffee nozzles before each coffee.

√ At the start of the recipe, there is a pre-infusion of coffee which can cause a small amount of water to flow from the coffee nozzles.

If one of the problems outlined in the table persists, contact KRUPS Consumer Service.
