Filling The Coffee Bean Container - Miele CM6350 Operating Instructions Manual

Filling the coffee bean container

Fill the coffee bean container with
roasted coffee or espresso beans if you
want to use freshly ground coffee beans
for each cup of espresso or coffee.
Alternatively, you can make coffee or
espresso with ground coffee (see "Mak-
ing coffee drinks from ground coffee").
Important! Risk of damage to the
grinder.
Only put roasted coffee or espresso
beans in the container. Anything
else, including ground coffee, will
damage the grinder.
Do not pour liquids in the bean con-
tainer.
Important! Sugar damages the coffee
system.
Do not use coffee beans that have
been treated with sugar, caramel, or
other substances containing sugar in
the coffee bean container.
Do not use green (unroasted) coffee
beans or mixtures of coffee beans
which contain green coffee beans.
Green coffee beans are very hard
and still contain a certain amount of
residual moisture. These can dam-
age the coffee system grinder as
soon as grinding begins.
Tip: You can use a nut or seed grinder
to grind green coffee beans. These
types of grinder generally have a rotat-
ing stainless steel blade. You can then
add the ground green coffee portion by
portion to the ground coffee chute and
make the desired coffee drink (see
"Making coffee drinks from ground cof-
fee").

a few days as contact with air causes
coffee beans to lose their aroma.
