Adjusting the coffee mill

The coffee mill is set by default to prepare coffee
correctly and should not require adjusting initially.
However, if after making the first few coffees you
find that delivery is either too fast or too slow (a
drop at a time), this can be corrected by adjusting
the grinding adjustment knob (fig. 8).

NB! The grinding adjustment knob must

These adjustments will only be evident after
making at least 2 cups of coffee. If delivery is still
too fast or too slow, repeat the correction proce-

Manual rinsing

For hotter coffee, before making the coffee rinse
the appliance by pressing the
water flows out of the spout, heating the internal
circuit and making the coffee delivered hotter.
Danger of burns! During rinsing, a little hot
water comes out of the coffee spouts and is col-
lected in the drip tray underneath.

Making coffee using coffee beans

Important! Do not use caramelised or can-
died coffee beans as they could stick to the coffee
mill and make it unusable.
1. Fill the container (A3) with coffee beans (fig.
9).
2. Place under the coffee spouts:
- 1 cup, if you want 1 coffee (fig. 10);
- 2 cups, if you want 2 coffees.
3. Lower the spouts as near as possible to the
cup. This makes a creamier coffee (fig. 11).
4. Press the icon corresponding to the number
of coffees required (1 cup
(fig. 12 and 13). The selected quantity and
taste are displayed.
5. Preparation begins. One or two cups appear
on the display and gradually fill as preparation
progresses.
Once the coffee has been made, the appliance pre-
pares for use again.
