Krups XP2240 Manual page 8

Remove the grounds using the ejection system by pressing the "EJECT" button located between the
two coffee outlet nozzles (fig.11). Wash the filter under running water, pressing "EJECT" to eliminate
the remnants of grounds.
The filter holder now can be filled again to prepare other espressos.
WITH AN "E.S.E." ESPRESSO POD
"ESE" for "Easy Serving Espresso" is a packaged pod (44 mm diameter) of 7g of selected
coffee, ground and compacted between two paper filters, specially designed to make Italian
style ristretto (small and strong) espressos.
This system allows immediate, simple, clean and comfortable use of your machine.
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4). During the pre-heating phase, the
indicator light will flash.
n Tear the excess paper off the pod, put the E.S.E. pod in the filter holder with the red writing facing
down (fig.6).
Be sure to place all the paper inside the filter holder, otherwise there might be leaks.
n If the pod is not placed correctly, the coffee you'll get in the cup will not be satisfactory.
n Never use two pods together.
n Follow the steps in figures 7 to 11 in the preparation of an espresso.
WITH A SOFT POD
Your machine is also compatible with soft pods (usually 60 mm in diameter). Given that this
kind of pod is not specifically designed for espresso machines, you will get a less full-bo-
died espresso than with an E.S.E. pod.
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4). During the pre-heating phase, the
indicator light will flash.
n Place a soft pod in the filter holder. Never use two pods together. If the pod is not placed correctly,
the coffee you'll get in the cup will not be satisfactory.
n Follow the steps in figures 7 to 11 in the preparation of an espresso.
3. STEAM FUNCTION
n The steam is used to foam up milk (for example to make a cappuccino or a cafe latte).
n To produce steam, the pump works by emitting an intermittent noise.
n After using the steam function, the appliance cools automatically by pumping cold water
through the heating system. During the pumping cycles, the excess steam in the heating system
is released with the hot water into the drip tray.
n The steam and noise that accompany this phase are important for cooling the appliance.
NOTE:
during and after using the appliance, the metal parts of the steam nozzle can
be very hot.
USING THE STEAM NOZZLE TO FROTH MILK
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4).
n Turn the switch to the "steam preheating" position. The indicator lamp flashes (fig.12).
n Turn the steam nozzle towards the outside of the appliance.
n Pour 60 to 100ml of very fresh, very cold milk into a small container of about 1/2 litre and which can
go under the steam nozzle. The milk and its container should be quite cold.
