The longer the coffee is brewed, the more

bitter substances and undesired aromas

are released� This has a negative effect on

the taste and makes the coffee less easily

digestible� So for extra strong coffee the

TE506/TE509 has a special aromaDouble

Shot function� When half the quantity

has been prepared, coffee is ground and

brewed again so that only the pleasant,

aromatic scents are released�28

The aromaDouble Shot function is activated

with the following settings:

Fill the appropriate container using only

pure, cold, uncarbonated water and only

roasted beans (preferably espresso or

coffee bean blends for fully automatic coffee

machines)� Do not use coffee beans that

have been glazed, caramelised or treated

with other additives containing sugar, since

they will block the brewing unit�

Tips on energy saving

● Switch off the fully automatic espresso

machine when not in use� To do this,

press the e off / j button (13)� The

appliance rinses and switches off�

● If possible, do not interrupt coffee or milk

froth dispensing� Cutting the coffee or milk

froth dispensing process short results in

higher energy consumption and in more

residual water collecting in the drip tray�

● Descale the appliance regularly to avoid

a build-up of limescale� Limescale residue

results in higher energy consumption�

Tip: Refer also to the quick reference guide

in the storage compartment (5c)�

Depending on usage, the following

messages will appear on the display at
