9) After about 1 minute, stop the pump by pressing the "Espresso" button again.
10) Wait until the green heating-up control lamp 📄 lights up again. The warming-up is concluded. You can now prepare espresso.
Heating up before every use
Before you can prepare an espresso or cappuccino, the appliance must be heated up.
1) Switch the appliance on using the on/off switch ⏻ 14. The red control lamp „Power” ⏻ 12 lights up. Neither the “Espresso” 📋 15 nor the “Steam” 🔊 16 buttons should be pressed in. Ensure that the steam control ② is turned towards “0” as far as possible.
2) Place the sieve holder 18 in the appliance by inserting the "→ INSERT" mark, which is located next to the hot water shower 10, into the appliance and then turning it clockwise until the handle of the sieve holder 18 is facing the front ("○CK" mark).
3) Press the "Espresso" button ☐ 15 so that the appliance draws water from the water tank ⑤. As soon as water starts exiting the openings in the sieve holder, press the "Espresso" button ☐ 15 again to stop the pump.
4) Wait until the green heating-up control lamp 📄 13 lights up.
5) Press the "Espresso" button 📄 15 again and allow hot water to flow through for 20 seconds before stopping the pump again. The preheating process is completed. You can now make an espresso/cappuccino.
Preparing espresso
NOTE
▶ Always ensure that the espresso sieve 19 20 is clean and free of coffee powder residues.
1) When the appliance is heated up:
To prepare an espresso, place the small espresso sieve 20 into the sieve holder 18.
To prepare two espressos, place the large espresso sieve 19 into the sieve holder 18.
2) Fill the small espresso sieve 20 with espresso powder up to the Max marking.
This corresponds to approx. 7 g of powder or a level measuring spoon ②1. Or:
Fill the large espresso sieve ⑲ with espresso powder up to the Max marking. This equates to about 7 g + 7 g of powder or two level measuring spoons ⑳.
3) Tamp down the espresso powder using the compactor on the measuring spoon 21. Add more espresso powder, if required, until the espresso sieve 19
20 is full up to the Max marking. Tamp the coffee powder down once again.
NOTE
▶ Compaction of the coffee powder is an essential process for the preparation of an espresso. If the espresso powder is compacted very strongly, the espresso runs through more slowly and more crema is generated. If the espresso powder is not so strongly compacted, the espresso runs through more quickly and it creates very little crema.
4) Place the sieve holder 18 in the appliance at the "→ INSERT" mark, then turn it clockwise until the handle of the sieve holder 18 is facing the front ("● LOCK" mark).
5) Place one (or two) cup(s) under the sieve holder openings. We recommend that you rinse the cups out with hot water beforehand, so that the espresso does not cool so quickly. You can place the cups onto the storage space ③.
6) As soon as the green heating-up control lamp 📄 13 lights up, you can press down the "Espresso" button 📄 15. The espresso flows into the cup(s).
WARNING
Never remove the sieve holder ⑱ while the espresso is coming out!
The resulting spray of hot espresso would lead to injury!
▶ Always check to make sure that the "Espresso" button is not pressed in before removing the sieve holder 18.
7) Once the cups are filled up to the required amount (about 20 ml per cup), press the "Espresso" button ☐ to stop the water being pumped through. You can now drink the espresso.
8) Switch the appliance off with the on/off switch ⏻ 14.
NOTE
▶ The appliance turns off automatically after 30 minutes.
9) After every use, remove the used espresso powder from the espresso sieve 19 20. Remove the sieve holder 18 from the appliance. To do this, fold the sieve blocker 17 upwards so that the espresso sieve 19 20 cannot fall out of the sieve carrier 18. Now empty the espresso sieve 19 20 by turning the sieve holder 18 and the blocked espresso sieve 19 20 over and knocking the espresso powder out. Always dispose of the espresso powder in an environmentally friendly manner, e.g. with the organic waste.
NOTE
Clean the hot water shower 10 (the hot water comes out of this) after each use. See also the section "Cleaning and Care".
NOTE
▶ Empty the drip tray ⑦ regularly, at the latest when the red float ⑧ is visible in the hole of the drip grille ⑨.
Preparing cappuccino
WARNING
Be careful when working with steam for the milk froth production!
The hot steam or hot splashes can lead to injuries!
▶ Always operate the steam control ② slowly.
1) Fill a container for frothing (preferably made of stainless steel) to one third with cold milk.
2) Ensure that the steam control ② is closed (turn it as far as it will go in the direction "0").
3) Push the milk frother ⑥ out to the side. Always hold it by the handle ④.
4) Press the "Steam" button 🎨 16 down. Wait for the green steam control lamp 🔊 11 to light up.
5) Hold an empty container under the milk frother ⑥. Slowly turn the steam control ② in the direction "♥". Pressurised water/spray comes from the nozzle. This cleans the nozzle and the water circuit inside the appliance.
6) Wait 15 seconds and then turn the steam control ② towards "0" until no more steam comes out of the nozzle. Pour the water out of the container.
7) Now hold the frothing container in your hand to feel the milk temperature and guide the nozzle of the milk frother ⑥ gently into the milk. Hold the frothing container at a slight angle.
8) Slowly turn the steam control ② towards 🎨.
9) Move the frothing container around in a circular motion while keeping the tip of the nozzle under the surface of the milk: deep enough that the milk does not spray out, but shallow enough to create a thick froth. Done properly, a deep buzzing sound is audible.
10) As the milk froth rises, push the nozzle deeper into the milk to froth up the next "layer" and to avoid a burnt taste in the froth.
11) Finally, insert the nozzle completely and close the steam control ② approximately halfway, so that the milk is heated. Hold the frothing container at a slight angle, so that the milk gently swirls around while it is being stirred with the nozzle.
12) When the milk froth has the desired consistency and temperature, close the steam control ② (turn it towards "0" as far as it will go).
13) Now you can remove the nozzle from the milk.
14) Press the "Steam" button 🎨 ⑯. The steam control lamp 🔊 ⑰ goes out and the heat-up control lamp - lights up.
NOTE
For the preparation of cappuccino, always use bigger cups than for espresso to leave space for the frothed milk.
15) When preparing cappuccino, proceed exactly as you would for an espresso (see section "Preparing espresso": the preheating is no longer necessary). Allow the water to flow through for about twice as long as an espresso (about 40 ml).
16) Switch off the appliance using the On/Off switch ⏻ 14.
NOTE
▶ The appliance turns off automatically after 30 minutes.
17) Now add the frothed milk into the previously prepared espresso. The cappuccino is now ready. You can add sugar or sprinkle it with cocoa powder according to taste.
NOTE
▶ Always clean the milk frother ⑥ after every use. See also the section "Cleaning and Care".
Tips for the milk froth
■ Generally, any type of milk can be frothed, including soy and rice milk. However, some types of milk can only be frothed to a certain extent.
■ Low fat or skimmed milk does not burn as easily as whole milk, however, a too low fat content adds to the risk that the milk will not be well frothed. Therefore use a milk with a fat content of 3.5% or 1.5%, if possible.
■ Well-cooled milk can be better frothed than less cold. For the best results, use milk at a temperature of about 7^ C.
■ Do not froth the milk a second time, otherwise it may burn.
- Allow frothed milk to stand for about 30 seconds before you pour it onto the espresso. This allows the larger bubbles to burst; the still liquid milk sinks to the bottom. You can then pour the fine froth onto the espresso.
