The way to the perfect coffee enjoyment

COFFEE

•

In addition to being able to select the quantity of coffee powder, the coffee machine also offers special setting options for each

type of product. The parameters of the three following steps in the brewing process can be adjusted:

Prebrew time

This parameter defines how long the coffee-powder will be moistend in the brew chamber. This time is set optimally if no water

drips into the cup.

Relax time

During the relax time it is possible for the coffee powder to expand. During this process, the water already absorbes some of the

flavour in the coffee powder. For the ristretto and espresso, the relax time has to be longer than for a long coffee, for which only

a short or no prebrew and relax time should be set. The relax time is about the same or slightly higher than the prebrew time.

Press after

„Press after" is the most important factor in the prebrew-cycle. Here, the expanded coffee powder will be pressed again. For

shorter coffee products like Ristretto and Espresso the press after time is set higher to reach the right dispensing time. The

basic rule is, that the brewing time should be the same for all products. That means, if the water quantity is low (Ristretto,

Espresso), the outlet time is shorter.

User

COFFEE AROMA

As an exclusive feature for the user, the machine offers the programm „Coffee Aroma". This programm contains all the brewing

steps mentioned above, already preset and adjusted.

Service-Engineer

The trained service engineer and coffee specialist can adjust these steps separately.

Technical Manual

Only use quality coffee. The type, roasting, mixture and strength should meet the wishes of your customers.

Always seal your supplies of coffee and close the bean hopper immediately.

Do not fill the bean hopper if the machine is not going to be used for a longer period of time (overnight, days off, etc.).

After not using the machine for a longer period of time, we recommend that you dispense a double coffee and pour it

away. The next coffee will then be of good quality.

Store your coffee supplies in a cool and dry area. By deep-freezing the coffee beans, you can keep them for

several months without quality loss.
