and ‘MAX’ indicators on the reservoir. The reservoir is removable. Take the reservoir out of the unit. Open the lid, ll the water reservoir, and carefully place it back in the appliance. Turn the appliance back on. SETTINGS There are dierent ways to set the unit to your likings. We recommend that you rst try the unit with the factory settings. If these are not to your liking, use the instructions in the instruction manual to personalise the unit to your liking and align it to the coee beans you want to use. Besides the settings, the type and quality of the coee beans inuence the taste and intensity of your espresso. Adjusting coarseness There are number markings on the grinder that indicate the coarseness of the ground coee. There are 15 settings. You have to adjust the coarseness while the appliance is grinding. If you rotate it while the unit is in standby mode, a bean might get into the grinder and stop it. First, try the coarseness at position 8 and taste the coee. You can then adjust the coarseness based on this taste. A grinding coarseness that is too ne gives the coee a bitter taste. If it is too coarse, the coee will be weak and watery. The nest grind is indicated by 1. The coarsest grind is indicated by 15. Setting grinder volume You can set the grind time to your personal preference. The standard setting is 14 seconds. The amount of ground coee you make depends on the type of bean and the coarseness setting.47 DO725K www.domo-elektro.be

1. Hold the portalter against the push button of the grinder support. Grinding will start. Hold the

portalter against the button and do not release it until the desired amount of ground coee is reached.

2. You will hear a signal. The new amount of ground coee for the grind button is now set.

Note: the minimum grind time is 5 seconds. If you grind for less than 5 seconds, the unit will not record that as the new amount. The standard factory setting will be retained.

Setting coee volume You can adjust the amount for the single and double buttons.

1. Press and hold the button down for which you want to set the volume (single or double).

2. You will hear a signal and preparation starts.

3. When you obtain the desired amount, release the button. The preparation stops and you will hear an

alert, which indicates that the amount is set as the new volume for the button.

BAR If the pressure gauge indicates a pressure between 0 and 5 bar while brewing coee, the pressure is too low. In this case, check the following:

1. Are the coee beans fresh?

2. Have you put enough pressure on the tamper? When pushing the ground coee,

you should use a force of ±15-20 kg.

3. Select a ner grinding setting.

BAR If the pressure gauge indicates a pressure between 12 and 20 bar while brewing coee, the pressure is too high. In this case, check the following:

1. Are the holes in the lter blocked?

2. Have you put too much pressure on the tamper? When pushing the ground

coee, you should use a force of ±15-20 kg.

3. Select a coarser grinding setting.

Restore factory settings

• If you want to restore the single button to its factory settings, press the hot water button and the single button simultaneously until you hear a signal.

• If you want to restore the double button to its factory settings, press the hot water button and the double button simultaneously until you hear a signal.48 DO725K

• If you want to restore the grinder to its factory settings, press the hot water button, the single button, and the double button simultaneously until you hear a signal.

TIPS FOR A PERFECT ESPRESSO

• Read the instruction on the coee bean packaging. It often provides recommendations. Save your coee beans in a closed container in a cool place, e.g. your fridge. Do not overll the bean reservoir. Coee beans exposed to air lose their taste within a few days. With ground coee, this can even occur within a few hours.

• To achieve the optimal coee temperature, we recommend that you heat up the unit and the cup. Use the same method as for preparing coee, but do not add ground coee to the lter of the portalter. Keep your cups above the unit, which acts as a cup warmer.

• Grind 7-9 grams of coee for a perfect espresso. You can adjust the grinding time. How long the unit takes to provide 7-9 grams of ground coee depends on the coarseness setting and type of coee bean. 7-9 g

• Always make sure that the ground coee is evenly spread out in the lter. This improves the permeation eect. Water by its nature ows along the easiest path with least resistance (i.e. the least coee). Now press with the tamper with a force of 15-20 kg. You can practice with a scale to estimate how much pressure you need with the tamper. Remove any excess coee from the edge to prevent loose ground coee dropping into your cup. 15-20 kg

• The perfect espresso is 35 ml and takes 25-30 seconds to complete. If it takes more or less time to nish, adjust the coarseness of the ground coee. If it takes less time, your grind is probably too coarse and the coee will taste weak. If it takes more time, your grind is too ne and the coee will taste too bitter. 35 ml 25-30 sec

• The best result is obtained with a pressure between 9 and 12 bar. The ‘Settings/Pressure gauge’ section explains how to obtain this.

• Finally, check the colour of the cream. Ideally, it should be a light brown colour and evenly distributed. Does the coee taste too bitter or too acid?

• The grinding coarseness is too ne.

• You use too much ground coee in proportion to the amount of water.

• You tamped the coee with too much force. Does the coee taste too weak or watery?

• The grinding coarseness is too coarse.

• You use too little ground coee in proportion to the amount of water.

• You did not tamp the coee hard enough. STEAM NOZZLE You use the steam nozzle to froth milk to achieve the perfect cappuccino or latte.

1. Fill the water reservoir. Insert the plug in the power socket and press the on-o button.

2. Fill a jug with cold, full-cream milk. Be careful not to overll the milk jug. Frothing the milk will

increase its volume.

3. Place a collection beaker under the steam nozzle or turn it toward the drip tray. In standby mode,

turn the rotary knob to the preheat setting. The indicator will light ash, meaning the steam is now heating up.

4. When the indicator light remains lit continuously, the appliance has warmed up. Turn the knob to the

max indication. First, a few drops of water will come out of the steam nozzle, then steam will form. Turn the steam nozzle towards the milk jug.

Note: the steam emitted by the steam nozzle is very, very hot, so keep your hands away from the unit while it is in operation.

5. Bring the milk jug up to the steam wand and insert the steam nozzle a few millimetres into the milk.

As the milk expands in volume, keep lowering the jug slightly until the steam nozzle tip is just below the surface of the milk. If you insert the steam nozzle too deeply into the milk, it heats the milk but does not froth air into the milk and no foam will form.

Note: do not use the steam feature for more than 5 minutes at a time.

6. When you obtain the desired amount of foam, turn the rotary knob to the o-position.

7. Clean the steam nozzle after every use.

Note: the steam nozzle may still be really hot. The unit must cool down after using the steam feature. Some vapour will drip onto the drip tray, which is normal.

1. Place a cup under the steam nozzle.

2. Press the hot water button. Hot water will ow from the steam nozzle.

3. When there is ±200 ml of hot water in your cup, the machine will stop automatically. If you want less

water, you can stop the machine by pressing the hot water button again.

appliance. Push the grinder in and turn it clockwise until you hear a click.51 DO725K www.domo-elektro.be

DESCALING When? Descale the unit regularly, on average every 4 to 6 months. Regularly descaling ensures the quality of your coee will be consistent, lowers energy consumption, and extends the espresso machine’s working life. After a usage of 1,000 cycles, the four indicator lights will ash red twice to indicate that the appliance needs descaling. How? You can use descaling product for coee machines or water and citric acid.

1. Fill the water reservoir to the maximum mark with the descaling product, diluted according to the

instructions on the product packaging. If you use citric acid, ll the reservoir with 2 l of water and 3 to 4 tablespoons of citric acid.

2. Place the portalter with lter but without ground coee in the unit.

3. Place a collection container of at least 2 litres under the brewing head and the steam nozzle.

4. Insert the plug in the power socket, turn on the unit, and let it heat up.

5. Press and hold the hot water button for 5-10 seconds until you hear a signal. The appliance is then in

6. During this descaling process, descaling liquid ows out of the brewing head and the steam nozzle.

This process takes 10-15 minutes. Once complete, the appliance will automatically switch o.

7. The unit must now be ushed with clean water to ensure no lime residue remains. Rinse the water

reservoir and ll it with clean water. Empty the collection container.

8. Repeat the descaling procedure, but now with clean water in the reservoir.
