Frequently Asked Questions - Sense CM461 Caple

How to adjust the coffee grind?
To adjust the grind, pull out the machine and turn the knob on the right side. Turn clockwise for a finer grind (stronger coffee) and counterclockwise for a coarser grind (lighter coffee).
What to do if the machine does not dispense water?
Check that the water tank is filled and correctly positioned. If the water shortage light is on, fill the tank. Also ensure the descaling filter is fully immersed before first use.
How to clean the steam wand?
Dismantle the steam wand after turning off the machine and waiting 20 minutes for it to cool. Clean it with a sponge and hot water. Then reassemble it. Do not use harsh detergents.
When should the descaling filter be replaced?
The filter should be replaced every 3 months or after 80 to 100 liters of water dispensed. A special light flashes as a pre-alarm at 80 liters then stays on at 100 liters to remind you to change it.
How to program the amount of coffee in the cup?
Press the Coffee button for 5 seconds until its light flashes. Press START/STOP to start dispensing. When the desired amount is reached, press START/STOP again to save.
Why is the wash light on?
After 10 coffees dispensed, the machine requires a mandatory wash. Place a container under the dispensing spouts, press the Wash button then START/STOP. The wash cycle runs automatically.
How to use the steam function to make a cappuccino?
Press the Steam button, wait until the light stays on steadily. Immerse the steam wand in cold milk and press START/STOP. Hold it down to heat and froth the milk. Swirl the container for a better result.
What does the generic alarm mean?
The generic alarm may indicate a blockage of the brew group, an open coffee grounds lid, or a sensor problem. Check that the lid is closed and the water tank is present. If the problem persists, turn the machine off and on again or contact support.
How to empty the coffee grounds bin?
Open the compartment lid after removing the drip tray. Extract the grounds bin, discard the residue and wash it with hot water or in the dishwasher. Then replace it in its compartment.
What to do if the machine does not turn on?
Check that the main switch on the back of the machine is in position '1'. Ensure the appliance is plugged in and the power cord is properly attached. If the problem persists, contact the support service.

3. INSTALLATION OF THE MACHINE

"BUILT-IN" INSTALLATION IN MODULAR FURNITURE

For the good operation of the machine when built-in to modular furniture, the latter must have suitable characteristics.

In conformity with safety standards, protection against contact with electrical parts and parts protected with just functional insulation must be provided through the correct housing of the machine.

All the parts that provide protection, including any covering panel (for example, if the machine is positioned at the end or beginning of the modules), must be fastened in such a way that they cannot be removed with the aid of a tool.

It is also a good idea to install the machine at a certain distance from refrigerators or freezers because the heat it emits could affect their operation.

Components for the installation of the machine

The machine must be installed in compartments that are 460 mm high and between 560 and 568 mm wide. The following installation components are supplied with the machine.

NOTE: If the machine is not used for 45 minutes, it returns to standby mode.

REGULATION OF THE GROUND COFFEE

Caple Sense CM461 - REGULATION OF THE GROUND COFFEE - 1
ATTENTION: The fineness of the coffee grind is calibrated at the factory.

This fineness has a strong influence on producing good coffee. Too “coarse” a grind produces coffee that flows quickly without creaminess and body. On the other hand, too fine a grind produces coffee that “drips” with a very intense taste and a “burned” smell. Keep in mind that producing a cup of espresso coffee takes from 20 to 30 seconds.

To regulate the grind, you must pull out the machine as shown in figures 8.1 to 8.3. Turn the regulation knob on the right side, as shown in Fig. 8.11.

Caple Sense CM461 - REGULATION OF THE GROUND COFFEE - 2

natural_image Technical line drawing of a mechanical device with a circular knob and directional arrows indicating motion (no text or symbols)

Turning the knob clockwise produces a finer grind and stronger coffee. Turning the knob counter-clockwise produces a coarser grind and lighter coffee. The grinding fineness can be read on the cover of the container.

Wash function on first start-up

The wash function is only mandatory when the machine is powered up for the first time. The wash key illuminates. By pressing the START button, the machine performs a wash cycle. It is now ready to be used

For subsequent start-ups see below

8. DISPENSING COFFEE

Place a cup under the dispenser, adjust the height of the dispenser nozzle with the handle: turning it raises or lowers the nozzles, as shown in Fig. 9.1.

Caple Sense CM461 - DISPENSING COFFEE - 1

When you want a double coffee, you can place two cups under the dispenser at the same time.

The rest of the paragraph explains how to dispense one coffee. The procedure is similar for double coffee, stretched coffee and two stretched coffees.

Press the button for the selection you want (in Fig. 7.1 it is espresso coffee).

START STOP

Press the START/STOP button within 10 seconds of your selection and wait for the coffee to be dispensed. Dispensing ends automatically when the quantity of coffee for the selection has been reached. This quantity is preset in the machine but can be changed, see paragraph 13.

You can stop dispensing at any time by pressing the START/STOP button.

Caple Sense CM461 - DISPENSING COFFEE - 4

ATTENTION: if the START button is not pressed within 10 seconds, the function is disabled. If you wish to dispense a beverage, you will have to repeat the procedure.

Caple Sense CM461 - DISPENSING COFFEE - 5

USEFUL TIPS FOR PREPARING AN EXCELLENT ESPRESSO

- The dispensing time for an excellent espresso is about 15-25 seconds. The factors that influence the dispensing time are the fineness of the grind and the quantity of ground coffee. If necessary, the fineness of the grind and dose of ground coffee can be changed. (See chapter 8, First use). - Coffee is a hygroscopic substance, which means that its characteristics are closely linked to the climate (humidity). So, remembertogrind the coffee earser when the air is very humid and finer when the air is drier.

NOTE: Fresh coffee beans have a limited life and should not be left in the machine for long periods of time. Older beans become soft and can clog the grinder mechanism. Once opened, coffee beans should be stored in a air tight container out of direct light. For best results, always use fresh coffee beans

9. DISPENSING HOT WATER

To dispense hot water, suitably position the water/steam nozzles, see Fig. 10.1

Caple Sense CM461 - PROGRAMMING THE QUANTITY OF GROUND COFFEE - 3

FOR EXPERT USERS ONLY:

PROGRAMMING THE GRINDING TIME

The grinding time for strong coffee is programmable and medium and light coffee are calibrated accordingly.

To enter programming mode, when the machine is in standby mode:

  • press the START/STOP button for 5 seconds; the LED s on the upper left line light up to indicate the grinding time;
  • to increase the time, press the coffee regulation button and to, decrease it, the START/STOP button. At the end of the operation, just press the on/off button to exit and confirm the changes.

NOTE If the quantity of coffee has been incorrectly adjusted preventing dispensing, the coffee machine will perform checks until the correct dispensing is achieved. The machine will begin grinding the coffee and the general alarm symbol will illuminate. This procedure terminates then the coffee is dispensed and new coffee parameters are then stored. You may be asked to perform a cleaning operation, if so please proceed with this (see chapter 7). If the problem persists please contact Caple Service.

12. PROGRAMMING THE QUANTITY OF COFFEE IN THE CUP

All the cycles have a preset quantity, except for water and steam.

The machine is already calibrated at the factory to dispense the ideal quantity of coffee for an espresso cup.

While dispensing the beverage, you can stop dispensing before the preset time by pressing the START/STOP button.

The procedure for programming the quantity of coffee, and other beverages, in the cup is as follows:

• press the coffee key for 5 seconds until the LED flashes.

Diagram showing various kitchen and cleaning icons with labels like 'START STOP' and a bottle, likely representing a food safety or cleaning system.

- press the START/STOP key to start dispensing. The two LEDs flash for its duration.

14. SIGNALLING AND ALARMS

No water warning

Diagram showing various symbols and icons including bowls, containers, arrows, and circles with plus/minus signs

The machine has a sensor that checks for water in the tank. If there is no water, the machine turns on the indicator light and will not work until the tank is filled.

Replace filter warning

Diagram showing various food and beverage icons including bowls, containers, water droplets, water drop, sunburst, patterned dish, and empty container with plus signs.

After the machine has dispensed 80 litres of water, the LED for the filter symbol begins to flash (pre-alarm), Fig. 14.2.

If the quantity of dispensed water reaches 100 litres, the LED will turn steady-on (alarm).

Caple Sense CM461 - SIGNALLING AND ALARMS - 3

The replacement of the filter is recommended within 3 months from when the LED remains steady-on.

To switch-off the alarm (or the pre-alarm), put the appliance in stand-by condition, hold the START/STOP button for 5 seconds; the alarm led will switch-off and the counter of dispensed water will reset.

START STOP

Mandatory washing and presence of coffee grounds

Diagram showing various icons representing food, beverage, and kitchenware with corresponding symbols below

After dispensing 10 cups of coffee, the wash light turns on steady red, while the grounds drawer LED flashes with a red light. This condition persists even when the machine is turned off and on. To reuse the machine, you must wash the coffee unit following the below steps:

1 - Press START
2 - Wait for the wash icon to go off
3 - Open the door and empty the coffee grind waste
4 - Wait for the grounds icon to go off
5 - Re install the coffee grounds holder
6 - Close the door

Now the machine is ready to make 10 more cups of coffee.

For emptying the tray of "used" coffee grounds see Chapter 16 "CLEANING".

Coffee probe broken warning

Diagram showing various electrical symbols and components, including power sources, meters, diodes, and a sunburst device.

The machine has a function that warns you when the coffee unit probe is broken.

Try to turn the machine off and on.

Caple Sense CM461 - Coffee probe broken warning - 2

ATTENTION: if the alarm persists, contact the Caple service centre.

Generic alarm warning

Collection of icons representing various weather and environmental symbols, including containers, lights, water droplets, solar panels, and sun.

The generic alarm indicator lights up (Fig. 15.5) for a variety of possible reasons:

  • The automatic coffee dispensing unit is blocked;
  • The movement of the automatic coffee dispensing unit did not occur correctly;
    • The door for removing the coffee grounds is open;
  • The volumetric counter did not detect the passage of water;
  • The temperature probe is not working correctly. If the generic alarm light turns on:
  • Check that the grounds emptying door is closed.
  • Check that there is water in the tank.

Turn the machine off and on. If the problem persists, contact service.

15. RECIPES

Italian cappuccino

This is a normal espresso with the addition of milk heated by steam, which softens the taste of the coffee and creates a consistent and pleasant surface foam. It is served in a large cup. Place the cold milk in a tall pitcher and use the steam jet, if available. Add just the foam to the espresso coffee by tilting and shaking the pitcher or use a spoon. You can dust the top of the foam with cocoa.

Viennese cappuccino

This variant is the product of the age-old Austrian tradition. Prepare a stretched espresso (extracted for 30-35 seconds), add warm milk and put whipped cream on top. It is served in a cup of intermediate size between an espresso cup and a cappuccino cup.

Garnish with chocolate flakes.

Cold espresso chilled in a shaker

Frothy and very refreshing, its a real pleasure on hot days. Prepareanespresso, addsugar, immediatelypouritin ashakerwithlargecubesoficeandshakeforseveral seconds. It is served in a tumbler orfl ute glass.

Irish coffee

An energising pick-me-up. In a tall, heated glass, mix eight parts hot coffee, one part of whiskey and cane sugar.

Add freshly whipped cream by sliding it on the lower part of a spoon: this creates a light layer of cool cream on top of the hot coffee.

Mexican coffee

Intense and exotic.

In a small cup, mix one dose of double cream, a teaspoon of cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg, sugar and whip.

Pour a teaspoon of chocolate syrup in a medium cup, add a little more cinnamon and the coffee and mix well.

Garnish with a teaspoon of vanilla-flavoured cream.

Cappuccino ice cream

In a pan, heat two cups of espresso, 34 cup of whipping cream and 12 cup of sugar; bring to a boil.

When the compound is lukewarm, place it in the refrigerator for 4-5 hours.

Put two or three scoops in a bowl and garnish to toasted coffee beans.

Let cool in the refrigerator for 12 hour before serving.

  • If the machine has not been used in a long time, we recommend changing the water in the tank
    • Periodically clean the water tank of any lime encrustations.
    • The tank can be washed in the dishwasher.
  • If using the Brita decalcifying filter, we recommend replacing the filter every 2000 espresso coffees or at least every three - six months.

17. TROUBLESHOOTING

The operator should make sure that the problem is not caused by:

  • No electricity
  • No water in the tank
  • No coffee in the machine
  • Incorrect closure of the access door to the coffee ground tray.

For any other causes, have the machine checked by Caple Service, tel 0844 800 3830 or email
