Operation and Functions

Operating Fields

The device has six operating fields:

Touch the field (22) to switch the device on and off.

Touch this field (30) to start / stop the grinding process for a single espresso or adjust the quantity of espresso powder.

Touch this field (23) to start / stop the grinding process for a double espresso or adjust the quantity of espresso powder.

Touch this field (24) to start / stop the brewing process for a single espresso or adjust the quantity of water.

Touch this field (26) to start / stop the brewing process for a double espresso or adjust the quantity of water.

Touch this field (25) to adjust the temperature.

The operating fields are simultaneously control lamps which indicate by flashing or being lit that the respective functions are active.

The operating fields also have other functions assigned to them and they are explained in detail in the corresponding chapters.

Control Lamps

The device has two control lamps:

STEAM / HOT WATER

This control lamp (27) lights up as soon as the device has reached operating temperature.

The dual-circuit thermoblock heating system makes it possible to brew espresso at any time and froth milk with steam without having to wait for the temperature to adjust.

CLEAN / DESCALE

This control lamp (29) lights up when the device needs to be descaled and during the descaling process.

Steam Power Control

team power control (8) is used to regulate the emission of steam and hot water (Picture C):

- In this position no steam is emitted.

In this position steam is emitted.

In this position hot water is emitted.

When you switch on the device, always make sure that the steam power control is in the

- position!

Hotplate

On the hotplate (7) you can preheat your cups or keep espresso that you have made warm. As soon as the device heats up, the hotplate is automatically heated at the same time.

Programming Your Own Settings

The grinding fineness and the amount of coffee powder which is ground in each grinding process can be set individually. The amount of water for the single or double espresso can likewise be individually programmed separately.

New settings cancel the factory default settings and are retained even if there is a power cut or when the device is disconnected from the mains power. To restore the device to the factory settings, touch the fields ⏻ (22) and ≡ (25) simultaneously until they all flash and a beep is heard.

Setting the Grinding Fineness

Twist the bean container (I) to the right or left so that the scale mark on the device points to the position with the grinding fineness you want (Picture D).

PLEASE NOTE: During operation, only twist the bean container from a coarse to a fine setting. Otherwise the grinder (3) could be damaged.

30 different levels can be chosen:

– all the way to the left: coarsest grinding level
– all the way to the right: finest grinding level

We recommend starting with grinding fineness level 15 and gradually working your way up to the perfect setting for your own personal taste.

When you do this, note that grinding fineness levels 20 – 30 are for coarse espresso powder. A coarse grinding fineness affects the flavour of your espresso because coarsely ground espresso powder shortens the extraction time, which makes the espresso weaker.

When you switch to another grinding strength, there will still be espresso powder with the previous grinding strength in the grinder.

Setting the Quantity of Espresso Powder

In the factory, 10-12 g are preset for a single espresso and 16 g for a double espresso.

The device only saves the grinding time when it reaches at least 5 seconds (5-6 g). Shorter figures are ignored. This prevents the programming from being changed accidentally.

I. Make sure that the bean container (I) is filled with enough espresso beans and is inserted correctly (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Adding Espresso Beans”).
2. Place the portafilter (16) with the corresponding sieve insert (17, 21) into the coffee powder outlet (12) (Picture E).

1. Keep touching and holding the field 🎨 (single espresso, 30) or 🎨 (double espresso, 23) until the desired quantity of espresso powder has been dispensed. The corresponding field and the field 📄 (25) flash.
2. Let go of the field. This grinding time is saved. A beep is heard.

Setting the Water Quantity

In the factory, 60 ml are preset for a single espresso and 90 ml for a double espresso. Note that during extraction some of the water remains in the espresso powder, so a full 60 or 90 ml does not end up in the espresso cup.

The device only saves the water quantity if it is between 20 – 125 ml for a single espresso or 20 – 250 ml for a double espresso.

I. Make sure that the water tank (6) is filled with enough water (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Filling the Water Tank”).
2. Fill the portafilter (16) with espresso powder (see the "Preparation" chapter – "Filling the Portafilter"). When you do this, note which water setting you want to adjust – single or double espresso!
3. Insert the portafilter into the device (see the "Preparation" chapter – "Inserting the Portafilter into the Device").
4. Place a cup under the portafilter.
5. Keep touching and holding the field ☐ (single espresso, 24) or ☑ (double espresso, 26) until the desired quantity of water has been dispensed. The corresponding field and the field ☐5) flash.
6. Let go of the field. This quantity of water is saved. A beep is heard.

Setting the Water Temperature

Four different brewing temperatures can be chosen: 90 / 92 / 94 / 96°C. A brewing temperature of 92°C is preset in the factory.

To change this setting, proceed as follows:

I. Touch the field ≡ (25) for approx. 3 seconds. A beep is heard and the field flashes.

If no setting is made within the next 60 seconds, the process is cancelled and the previous setting is retained.

1. The temperatures are saved behind the operating fields. Touch the field you want:

(30) - 90°C (23) - 92 °C (24) - 94 °C (26) - 96 °C

The field ■ flashes and the corresponding chosen temperature field also lights up.

1. Touch the field again. A beep is heard and the setting is saved.

Preparation

Inserting / Removing the Drip Tray

The device is supplied with a drip tray (13) because espresso may drip from the portafilter (16) after the cup has been removed.

I. Insert the drip tray into the bottom of the device. Insert it at a slight angle so that the drip tray can lock in place. Make sure that it fits correctly in the device.
2. Place the storage plate (15) on the drip tray.
3. To remove the drip tray, tilt it forwards slightly and carefully pull it out of the device.

Behind the drip tray there is a small drawer for the cleaning utensils (18). Insert this into the designated compartment (11) before you insert the drip tray.

Filling the Water Tank

PLEASE NOTE!

- Do not pour milk or other liquids into the water tank. Only ever use water!

I. Take the water tank (6) off the device by pulling it upwards.
2. Open the water tank lid (5).
3. Pour water into the water tank. Make sure that you fill it at least up to the MIN marking and no higher than the MAX marking.
4. Close the water tank lid.
5. Insert the water tank into the device by sliding it into the device from above. Make sure that the locking lugs of the water tank sit in the recesses which are provided for them on the device. You must feel it engage.

If the device notices that the water tank does not have enough water in it, all operating fields flash and a beep is heard.

Adding Espresso Beans

I. Make sure that the bean container (I) is inserted correctly (see the “Cleaning and Care” chapter – “Cleaning the Grinder”).
2. Remove the lid (2) from the bean container.
3. Fill the bean container with espresso beans. Do not overfill it!
4. Place the lid back on the bean container.

When you switch to another type of espresso, there will still be coffee powder from the previous type in the grinder (3). The grinder may need to be cleaned beforehand (see the “Cleaning and Care” chapter – “Cleaning the Grinder”).

Inserting / Removing the Sieve Insert

I. Insert the appropriate sieve insert (17, 21) into the portafilter (16).
2. To remove the sieve insert from the portafilter, use the cleaning needle (20) if necessary. This can be slid between the portafilter and sieve insert to lever out the sieve insert.

Filling the Portafilter

I. Touch the field ⏻ (22) to switch on the device.
2. Make sure that the bean container is inserted correctly (see the “Cleaning and Care” chapter – “Cleaning the Grinder”) and is filled with sufficient espresso beans (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Adding Espresso Beans”).
3. If the control lamps in the fields (30) and (23) are lit white, the grinder (3) is ready to operate.
4. Place the portafilter (16) with sieve insert into the coffee powder outlet (12) (Picture E).
5. Touch the field 🎨 (single espresso, 30) or 🎨 (double espresso, 23). The field flashes during the grinding process. Freshly ground espresso powder drops into the portafilter. Once the set quantity of espresso powder has been ground, the grinding process stops automatically. The field is constantly lit.
6. Press the espresso powder down well in the portafilter with the tamper.
7. Remove excess espresso powder from the rim of the portafilter.

You can also add espresso powder that has already been ground to the portafilter. Bear in mind that this can also be pressed down well with the tamper.

PLEASE NOTE: If the espresso powder is pressed down too firmly, the water cannot flow through it. The brewing process is then aborted, a warning signal is heard and all fields light up.

Inserting the Portafilter into the Device

I. Hold the filled portafilter (16) firmly by the handle and insert it at a 45^ angle into the portafilter mount (10).
2. Twist the portafilter to the right, as far as it will go. The handle points straight forwards.

Removing the Portafilter from the Device

I. Hold the portafilter (16) by the handle and turn it approx. 45^ to the left.
2. It is released and can be pulled down and out of the device.

Emptying the Sieve Insert

I. Tap out the portafilter over a dustbin or knock box. When you do this, make sure that the sieve insert does not fall out at the same time.
2. Remove the sieve insert (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Inserting / Removing the Sieve Insert”).
3. Clean the sieve insert (see the “Cleaning and Care” chapter).

Do you not have a suitable knock box available? But is opening the dustbin each time too much hassle for you? Not a problem! This is no longer a problem with our BEEM Knock Box (article number 03994). This attractive knock box has a silicone-covered knocking bar – this protects the portafilter and makes it easier to clean later on. And with a capacity of 650 ml, the BEEM Knock Box offers plenty of space for several rounds of making coffee.

Tips

To enjoy an aromatic espresso or coffee, please note the following tips:

• Always preheat the cups on the hotplate (7).
- Rinse out the cups with hot water immediately before using them.
- Always fill the water tank (6) with fresh water. Do not use any water that has been in the water tank for longer than 12 hours.
- After the device has heated up, first allow hot water for 1 – 2 double espressos to run through the sieve insert (17, 21) and the portafilter (16) before you fill them with espresso powder.
- If you want to make milk froth, once the device has heated up first allow hot steam to run through the steam nozzle (9).
- If possible, always use freshly ground espresso powder to achieve an optimum flavour.
- Do not press down the espresso powder in the portafilter too firmly. If the espresso powder is pressed too much, the process may be aborted or the processing time may be increased, thus producing increased levels of bitter compounds.
• Empty and clean the sieve insert after each use.
- Regularly clean and descale the device (see the “Cleaning and Care” chapter – “Descaling”). A dirty and / or furred-up device compromises the flavour.

Recipes for Speciality Coffees

Cappuccino

Cappuccino is normally made from one third espresso, one third hot milk and one third milk froth.

The cup should be thoroughly preheated as the drink is prepared in several steps.

I. First prepare the espresso (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Making Espresso”).
2. Then place the cup down on the hotplate (7) so that the espresso remains as hot as possible.
3. In comparison to the espresso, pour twice the amount of milk into the small milk jug and froth up half of the milk (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Preparing Milk Froth”). The other half of the milk remains liquid.
4. Hold back the milk froth with a spoon or plastic spatula and pour the hot milk over the espresso.
5. Scoop the milk froth out of the frothing container with a spoon and spread it as a crest on the cappuccino.

Latte Macchiato

Latte macchiato traditionally comprises three layers: a bottom layer of hot milk (2/3), a top layer of frothed milk (1/3) and an espresso which is poured through the milk froth. As milk containing fat has a higher density than espresso, the coffee floats on the milk.

The espresso cup and the latte macchiato glass should be thoroughly preheated as the drink is prepared in several steps.

I. Pour the milk into the small milk jug and froth up a third of the milk (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Preparing Milk Froth”). The rest of the milk is just heated and remains liquid.
2. Pour the hot milk and the milk froth into the latte macchiato glass.
3. Then place the latte macchiato glass down on the hotplate (7) so that the milk remains as hot as possible.
4. Prepare the espresso (see the "Preparation" chapter – "Making Espresso").
5. Pour the hot espresso through the milk froth at the edge of the glass.

Caffè Americano

Caffè Americano is a type of coffee beverage which is prepared by diluting an espresso with hot water. As it contains the same amount of acid and caffeine as a normal espresso, it has a less strong flavour and is a popular alternative to a traditional coffee at the end of a meal.

An original Caffè Americano is mixed 1:1.

I. First prepare hot water (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Dispensing Hot Water”). Allow this to run into a coffee cup.
2. Place the coffee cup under the portafilter and prepare an espresso (see the "Preparation" chapter – "Making Espresso").

Cleaning and Care

PLEASE NOTE!

- Do not use any toxic, corrosive or abrasive cleaning agents or scouring sponges to clean the device. These may damage the surface.

I. Take the portafilter (16) out of the device and empty it (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Removing the Portafilter from the Device”).
2. Remove the used sieve insert (17, 21) (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Inserting / Removing the Sieve Insert”).
3. Empty the drip tray (13) after each use (see the "Preparation" chapter – "Inserting / Removing the Drip Tray").
4. Clean all used accessories with detergent and warm water.
5. Wipe the housing with a damp cloth. If necessary, use a little detergent to remove more intense soiling.
6. Check the connecting cable regularly for any damage.

Cleaning the Steam Nozzle

To prevent any blockage, the steam nozzle (9) must be cleaned after each use.

I. Turn the steam nozzle over the drip tray (13).
2. Switch on the device by touching the field ⏻(22). The device switches to preheating mode. The control lamp STEAM / HOT WATER (27) flashes.
3. Once the device has reached the correct temperature, the control lamp STEAM / HOT WATERR lights up
4. Move the steam power control (8) to position 🔍 (Hot water). Water starts to be dispensed and milk residues are rinsed out of the steam nozzle.
5. Wipe down the steam nozzle with a damp cloth.

If the steam nozzle has become clogged, you can release the blockage with the cleaning needle.

Cleaning the Grinder

I. Make sure that the device has been disconnected from the mains power.
2. Turn the bean container (I) anticlockwise until the scale mark on the device and the scale arrow with the lock symbol on the bean container are aligned (Picture F).
3. Pull the bean container up and off.
4. Empty the bean container and carefully remove the rest of the beans from the grinder (3).
Make sure that the catch at the bottom of the bean container is fully closed (Picture G).
5. Place the bean container back on the grinder: The scale arrow with the lock symbol on the bean container and the scale mark on the device must be aligned. Twist the bean container clockwise until the grinding fineness scale is at the front.

If the bean container is not fitted correctly, the fields (30) and (23) light up red.

1. Plug the mains plug into the plug socket.

2. Switch on the device by touching the field (22). The device switches to preheating mode. The field flashes slowly and the fields and light up. Once the preheating has ended, all operating fields and the control lamp STEAM / HOT WATER (27) light up. The device is ready to operate.

3. Touch the field (30) or (23), possibly several times, to grind the rest of the beans in the grinder. Once the rest of the coffee beans have been ground, you can tell this from the change in the grinding noise.

4. Pull the plug out of the plug socket again.

5. Take off the bean container.

II. Grab the small clip on the grinding collar and twist the grinding collar to the left. It is released from its locking mechanism and can be removed.

1. Clean the grinding collar with the cleaning brush. If necessary, you can also use a little water and cleaning agent.

2. Clean the grinder on the inside with the cleaning brush.

3. Place the grinding collar back on the grinder and twist it to the right until it slides down on the grinder and you feel it engage.
4. Place the bean container back on and fill it again (see the “Preparation” chapter – “Adding Espresso Beans”).

Descaling

Limescale deposits have an adverse effect not only on the quality of the coffee and the water, but they also cause power losses and shorten the lifespan of the device. The thicker a limescale layer is, the more difficult it is to remove.

The device indicates via the control lamp CLEAN / DESCALE (29) when the device needs to be descaled.

If on average you prepare 1 –2 double espressos, we recommend the following regular descaling regime:

• Very hard water (over 26 °dH): roughly every 3 months
• Medium-hard water (15–21 °dH): roughly every 4 months
- Very soft water (0–3 °dH): roughly every 8 months

For descaling we recommend the BEEM Premium Descaler Concentrate. The efficient, food-safe and environmentally friendly BEEM Premium Descaler Concentrate is available from selected specialist stockists, via our website www.beem.de or from our customer service department on request.

Descaling with the BEEM Premium Descaler Concentrate

I. Fill the water tank (6) up to the MAX marking with a concentrate/water solution of no more than 1:20 (one part concentrate to 20 parts water). There should be at least 1 litre in the water tank.
2. Make sure that the drip tray (13) is empty and is fitted in the device correctly and the portafilter (16) with the double sieve insert (21) has been inserted in the portafilter mount (10) (see the "Preparation" chapter).
3. Place a suitable vessel under the portafilter and under the steam nozzle (9).
4. Touch and hold the fields ☐ (24), ☐ (26) and ☐ (25). The device starts the descaling process.

When the control lamp CLEAN / DESCALE (29) flashes quickly, perform the following steps:

1. Move the steam power control (8) to position 🎨 (Steam).
   The control lamp CLEAN / DESCALE lights up and the field ⏻ (22) and the control lamp STEAM / HOT WATER (27) flash.
   The water pump operates, hot water emerges from the portafilter mount and the steam nozzle for approx. 2 minutes.

2. Once water stops coming out, turn the steam power control to position

IMPORTANT: The following two steps must be performed within the next 5 minutes for the descaling process to be continued.

1. Empty the water tank and refill it with clear water.

2. Empty the two vessels.

The whole system is then cleaned:

1. Move the steam power control to position (Hot water).

The control lamp CLEAN / DESCALE lights up and the field ⏻ and the control lamp STEAM / HOT WATER flash.

The water pump operates, hot water emerges from the portafilter mount and the steam nozzle for approx. 2 minutes.

1. Once water stops coming out, turn the steam power control to position ●. The control lamp CLEAN / DESCALE goes out. The other fields light up, a beep is heard and the field 🔒 is lit constantly.

The descaling process has been completed.
