Factoid 1
Caffeine is tasteless. A "strong" coffee or espresso is mostly the
result of the amount of coffee in relation to the amount of water.
The longer a bean is roasted, the less caffeine it has. "Arabica"
beans have less caffeine than "Robusta" beans. "Arabica" beans
have more flavor than "Robusta" beans, which are mostly used
in high-volume coffees and instant coffees.
Factoid 2
Espresso is the way the bean is roasted, not the bean itself. You
can use many different roasts to produce espresso coffee. You
can also use the espresso roasted coffee to make a larger cup
of coffee. In the U.S., espresso roasting results mostly in a dark-
er roast than espresso roasting in Europe.
5. PLEASE, DON'T... (or you will void your warranty
protection):
• Never fill instant coffee into the grinder or ground coffee fun-
nel; it can damage the functioning of the brewing chamber.
• Never fill sugar coated coffee beans into the bean container.
• Never fill frozen beans into the bean container. If you store
beans in the freezer, let them thaw for 3 to 4 hours before fill-
ing them into the bean container.
• Never fill anything other than coffee beans into the bean con-
tainer (no chocolate, no rice, no nuts, no spices, nothing other
than coffee).
• Never fill anything but fresh, cold clean water into the water
container (exception: see chapter 17.2).
• Never use mineral or carbonated water. You can use tap
water, spring water, distilled water and reverse osmosis water.
• Never repair or open the machine yourself. All repairs should
be performed only by an authorized service center.
PLEASE, DO...
• Fill water tank with fresh, cold water only (no distilled water, no
mineral water, no carbonated water).
• Remove foreign particles from coffee beans, such as small stones
or pebbles.
• Let frozen beans thaw for 3 to 4 hours before filling them into the
bean container.
