Preparing The Coffee (Using Coffee Beans) - DeLonghi EAM 4000 B Operating Instructions Manual

5 PREPARING THE COFFEE (USING COFFEE BEANS)

1) Before delivering the coffee, always make sure that the green
lights are on steady, that the water tank and the coffee bean
container are full.
2) Adjust the right-hand knob (Fig. 7) to set the desired taste of the coffee.
Turning the knob clockwise increases the quantity of coffee beans that
the machine will grind, and thus makes the taste of the coffee stronger.
When using the machine for the first time, the correct position of the
knob can be found by trial and error. Make sure not to turn it too far
clockwise, otherwise the coffee will be delivered too slowly (in drops),
above all when preparing two cups of coffee.
3) Adjust the left-hand knob (Fig. 8) to set the quantity of coffee requi-
red. Turning the knob clockwise makes a longer coffee. When using
the machine for the first time, the correct position of the knob can be
found by trial and error.
4) Place one cup under the spouts to make 1 coffee (Fig. 9) or 2 cups
for 2 coffees (Fig. 10). For a creamy coffee, lower the spouts to bring
them as close to the cups as possible (Fig. 11).
5) Press the button (Fig. 12) to make one cup of coffee or the
button (Fig. 13) to make 2 coffees. At this point the machine grinds
the beans, runs a short pre-infusion cycle, a pause and then comple-
tes the delivery.
Once the desired quantity has been reached, the machine automati-
cally stops delivering the coffee and discharges the grounds into the
special container.
6) After a few seconds, when both the green
are on again, another coffee can be made.
7) To switch the machine off, press the
machine automatically runs a rinse cycle: a little hot water will come out of
the spouts and will be collected in the drip tray underneath - be careful, to
avoid being scalded ). If the machine is not switched off using the
ton, it will switch itself off and run a brief rinse cycle 3 hours after the last
operation
NOTE 1: : If the coffee is delivered a drop at a time or not at all, turn the
grinding coarseness regulator (fig. 17) one click clockwise (see para. 6). Turn a
click at a time until the coffee is delivered satisfactorily.
NOTE 2: If the coffee is delivered too fast and is not creamy enough, turn the
right-hand knob (fig. 7) clockwise. Proceed by trial and error to find the correct
position of the knob. Make sure not to turn the knob too far clockwise, otherwise
the delivery may become too slow (in drops), above all when making two cups of
coffee. If, after several coffees, the cream is still not satisfactory, also turn the grin-
ding adjustment knob (Fig. 17) one click clockwise (see par. 6).
NOTE 3: Tips on making hotter coffee:
1) ) If, when the machine has just been turned on, a short cup of coffee is required
(less than 60cc), use the hot rinsing water to pre-heat the cups (see the suggestion
in par. 4.3, point 5). 1) If, when the machine has just been turned on, a short cup
of coffee is required (less than 60cc), use the hot rinsing water to pre-heat the cups
(see the suggestion in par. 4.3, point 5). If, on the other hand, more than 2/3
minutes have elapsed since the last coffee was made, before preparing another
coffee the infuser must be pre-heated, pressing the
and indicator lights
button. (Before switching off, the
button (Fig. 14).
