Note:
The machine will automatically default to the steam function when the appliance

position. The various functions, (espresso, steam, and hot water) cannot be operated
at the same time.
To use the hot water function:
1. Press the SELECT button. The HOT WATER indicator will illuminate.
2. Direct the steam wand towards the drip tray or into your heat-resistant vessel.
3. Turn the control dial to the right steam position. Hot water will be coming out of the
steam wand.

Do not take more than 1 litre of hot water in a cycle. The machine is not intended for
producing large amounts of hot water, for filling a pot of coffee or tea. The water will
decrease in temperature, when taking too large amounts.

TIPS FOR BEST RESULTS

Preparing perfect coffee is an art you will learn quite easily using your new espresso
machine. This chapter will give you good advice for your perfect coffee delight.
For optimal flavour when using a 1 CUP filter, you should extract approx. 30ml. When
using a 2 CUP filter, you should extract approx. 60ml.
The taste of your coffee should be adapted to your individual liking. The type of cof-
fee beans is crucial as well as the grind size (fine or coarse). Additionally, the pressure
applied when tamping the coffee in the filter basket will have an influence. Thus, you
should give it a try.
SELECTION AND STORAGE OF COFFEE BEANS
Store coffee beans, coffee powder, or espresso pads in an air-tight and dry container on
a cold, dark place. Vacuum seal if possible. However, you should not place the coffee
into the refrigerator or freezer.
Buy coffee beans in small batches to reduce the storage time.
It is best to grind directly before the extraction to maximise flavour. Consume coffee beans
within a month. Consume pre-ground coffee within a week to avoid loss of flavour.
