Filling The Coffee Bean Container - Miele CM 7550 Operating Instructions Manual

Filling the coffee bean container

Coffee or Espresso can be made from
whole roasted coffee beans which are
freshly ground for each portion. This
requires the coffee bean container to be
filled with coffee beans.
Alternatively, you can make coffee or
espresso with ground coffee (see
"Making coffee drinks with ground
coffee").

Risk of damage to the grinder
due to incorrect operation.
The coffee machine will be damaged
if the bean container is filled with
unsuitable substances such as
liquids, ground coffee or coffee
beans treated with sugar, caramel or
similar.
In addition, green (unroasted) coffee
beans or mixtures of coffee beans
which contain green coffee beans
can damage the grinder. Green
coffee beans are very hard and still
contain residual moisture. These can
damage the coffee machine grinder
as soon as grinding begins.
Only put roasted coffee beans in the
bean container.
Tip: You can use a nut or seed grinder
to grind green coffee beans. These
types of grinder generally have a
rotating stainless steel blade. You can
then add the ground green coffee one
portion at a time to the ground coffee
chute and make the desired coffee
drink (see "Making coffee drinks with
ground coffee").
