Amount of coffee
The coffee machine can grind and brew
7.5–12.5 g of coffee beans per cup. The
greater the quantity, the stronger the
coffee.
There are various ways to tell whether

The amount of coffee is too low if:
- the espresso or coffee flows into the
cup too quickly
- the crema is very pale and uneven
- the espresso or coffee lacks body
Increase the amount of coffee so that
more ground coffee is brewed.
The amount of coffee is too high if:
- the espresso or coffee flows into the
cup very slowly
- the crema is dark brown
- the espresso or coffee tastes bitter
Decrease the amount of coffee so that
less ground coffee is brewed.
Brewing temperature
The ideal brewing temperature will
depend on
- the type of coffee being used,
- whether an espresso or a coffee is
being prepared, and
- the altitude of the region.
Tip: Not all types of coffee tolerate high
temperatures. Several types are
sensitive to high temperatures, resulting
in an impaired crema and taste.
Pre-brewing ground coffee
When the pre-brewing function is
turned on, the freshly ground coffee is
first moistened with a little hot water.
Then the remaining water is forced
through the moistened coffee at high
pressure. This helps release the flavor
of the coffee.
