MAKING AN ESPRESSO

TIPS


Before using for the first time, after a prolonged period of inactivity or after descaling, the appliance must be cleaned as described in paragraph USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Release the filter holder by pressing the button lightly before removing it from the appliance (Fig. 1a).
MAKING AN ESPRESSO - Step 1

  • For an espresso with intense flavour, we recommend using freshly ground special espresso coffee which is ideal for the delicacy of this type of drink, along with cups with a capacity not exceeding 50 ml.
  • Keep the ground espresso coffee in the refrigerator; it retains its flavour longer.
  • Do not fill your filter holder to the brim, but use the measuring spoon (1 spoon for one cup, 2 spoons for 2 cups). Remove any excess ground espresso coffee from the edge of the filter holder (Fig. 9b).
    MAKING AN ESPRESSO - Step 2
  • If you do not use the appliance for more than 5 days, rinse and drain the water tank.
  • Before removing the water tank to fill or empty it, always turn the appliance off.
  • Always place the appliance on a flat, stable, heat-resistant work surface.

USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Rinsing before first use

Before using your coffee machine, clean all of the accessories in mild detergent and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry them.

  • Fill the tank with cold water and place it on the appliance making sure it is secure (Fig. 1c).
    Rinsing before first use - Step 1
  • Switch on the appliance by pressing the on/off button d2 .
  • The temperature light flashes and then remains lit. The appliance is ready for use (Fig. 2).
    Rinsing before first use - Step 2
  • Insert the filter holder (without ground espresso coffee) into the appliance: turn it towards the right as far as possible (Fig. 3).
    Rinsing before first use - Step 3
  • Place a container with a volume of more than 1/2 litre underneath the filter holder. Turn the selector dial d1 to the position (coffee) (Fig. 4 and 5). If the water doesn't run off (pump priming), repeat the process from the beginning.
    Rinsing before first use - Step 4
    Rinsing before first use - Step 5
  • Let the water run from the tank. To stop the flow of water, turn the selector dial d1 to the position (Fig. 6) and unplug the appliance.
    Rinsing before first use - Step 6
  • Remove the tank, empty it and rinse it carefully. Then securely place it back into the appliance (Fig. 1b and 7)
    Rinsing before first use - Step 7
    Rinsing before first use - Step 8

PREPARING AN ESPRESSO


If the espresso machine is being used for the first time, the appliance must be cleaned as described in Paragraph USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

In order to release all the aromas of the coffee and ensure your complete satisfaction, this machine pre-brews each coffee. The pump works 3 seconds, stops the following 3 seconds and then the cycle continues until the end of the preparation.

PREHEATING THE ACCESSORIES

  • For the best results, we recommend that you preheat the accessories (filter holder and cups) without ground coffee. To do so:
  • Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (Fig. 1, 2, and 3).
  • Put the filter holder in place, place the cups below.
  • As soon as the appliance reaches the required temperature, the light stops flashing.
  • Then turn the selector dial to the position "coffee" (Fig. 8).
    PREHEATING THE ACCESSORIES - Step 1
  • When the cups are filled with hot water, turn the selector dial to the "off" position (Fig. 9).
    PREHEATING THE ACCESSORIES - Step 2
  • Remove the cups.
  • Unlock the filter holder: press the button while turning the filter holder to the left and remove it from the appliance (Fig. 10).
    PREHEATING THE ACCESSORIES - Step 3

Note: When the appliance is hot, the espresso cups can be preheated on the cup warming plate.

With ground coffee

The type of coffee you choose will determine the strength and taste of your espresso: the finer your coffee is ground, the stronger the espresso.

  • Before removing the removable tank, place the selector dial d1 in the position (Fig. 6).
  • Fill the tank with cold water and fit it back into the appliance (Fig. 7).
  • Switch on the appliance by pressing the on/off button d2.
  • The light flashes during the preheating phase and then remains lit. The appliance is then ready for use.
  • Release the filter holder by pressing the button lightly and turning it towards the left (Fig. 8). Using the measuring spoon, place the ground coffee into the filter holder: one measuring spoon (filled to the top) per cup for a good espresso (Fig. 9a).
    Making espresso with ground coffee - Step 1
  • Remove any excess ground coffee from the edge of the filter holder (Fig. 9b).
  • Insert the filter holder in the appliance by turning it to the right up to the stop (Fig. 11).
    Making espresso with ground coffee - Step 2
  • Put one or two cups on the drip tray grid under the filter holder (Fig. 12).
    Making espresso with ground coffee - Step 3
  • Turn the selector dial d1 to the position (coffee) (Fig. 4).
  • After a few moments, the coffee will start to flow.
  • When your cups are full, move the selector d1 to the position (Fig. 6).
  • Remove the cups.
  • Unlock the filter holder: press the button lightly while turning the filter holder to the left and remove it from the appliance. Throw away the used grounds using the ejection system by pressing the "Push" button under the filter holder (Fig. 15). Wash the filter holder under running water, pressing the "Push" button to eliminate the remaining grounds (see also Paragraph CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE - Filter holder for a more thorough cleaning).
    Making espresso with ground coffee - Step 4

It is normal that every time the selector dial d1 returns to the position there is a slight noise of running water or steam. This is due to a specific device which eliminates the pressure built up within the system.

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 an immediate, simple, clean and comfortable use of your machine.

  • Before removing the water tank, remember to place the selector dial d1 in the position (Fig. 6).
  • Fill the tank with cold water and fit it back into the appliance (Fig. 7).
  • Switch on the appliance by pressing the on/off button d2.
  • The light flashes during the preheating phase and then remains lit. The appliance is then ready for use.
  • Unlock the filter holder by pressing the button lightly and turning it towards the left (Fig. 14). If required, remove the excess paper around the pod following the dotted lines (Fig. 13).
    Making espresso with an E.S.E espresso pod
    Place the E.S.E pod with the red writing facing downwards (fold the corners of the filter paper back). Ensure that the paper is placed inside the filter; otherwise this could cause it to leak.
    For a richer and thicker cream, the E.S.E pod must be positioned correctly. The pod is designed to make one cup of coffee. The use of 2 E.S.E pods on top of one another is not recommended.
  • Insert the filter holder into the appliance tightening it by turning it towards the right as far as possible (Fig. 11).
  • To prepare your espresso, follow the same procedure as for preparing an espresso with ground coffee.

With a soft pod

Your machine is also compatible with soft pods (generally 60 mm in diameter). As this type of pod is not specifically designed for espresso machines, you will obtain a weaker espresso than with an E.S.E pod.

  • Before removing the water tank, remember to place the selector dial d1 in the position (Fig. 6).
  • Fill the tank with cold water and fit it back into the appliance (Fig. 7).
  • Switch on the appliance by pressing the on/off button d2.
  • The light flashes during the preheating phase and then remains lit. The appliance is then ready for use.
  • Unlock the filter holder by pressing the button lightly and turning it towards the left (Fig. 14). Place a soft pod into the filter holder. The pod is designed to make one cup of coffee. The use of 2 pods on top of one another is not recommended.
  • Insert the filter holder into the appliance tightening it by turning it towards the right as far as possible (Fig. 11).
  • To prepare your espresso, follow the same procedure as for preparing an espresso with ground coffee.

STEAM FUNCTION

Steam is used to froth the milk (for example when preparing cappuccinos).

  • To produce steam, turn the selector dial d1 to the position (Fig. 16) (to obtain more steam, the temperature needs to be higher than when making coffee).
    STEAM FUNCTION - Step 1
  • The ON/OFF button LED flashes again then remains lit. The appliance is then ready for use.
  • Put the milk in a container. For best results, we recommend using a container with a narrow neck (a small jug for example).
  • Immerse the steam nozzle into the milk.
  • Turn the selector dial d1 to the position (steam) (Fig. 17): the steam pours into the milk.
    STEAM FUNCTION - Step 2
  • In order to obtain good frothy milk, use circular movements and move from top to bottom, making sure that the steam nozzle remains straight in the middle of the container (Fig. 25c). The pump operates intermittently; this is normal.
    STEAM FUNCTION - Step 3
  • For best results, we recommend that you use pasteurised or UHT milk and that you avoid untreated or skimmed milk.
  • During the operation, it is normal for the temperature light of the ON/OFF button to light up and then turn off.
  • Once the froth has been formed, switch off the appliance (selector dial d1 in position).
  • When the selector dial d1 is in position, the appliance will automatically cool down. During the cooling down phase, the LED of the ON/OFF button will flash, and hot water and/or steam will run into the drip tray. When the optimal temperature for preparing an espresso is reached, the LED remains lit.


Once the steam has been stopped, clean the steam nozzle immediately as described in Paragraph CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE - Steam nozzle.


The steam nozzle is still hot! Be careful not to burn yourself.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

The appliance

  • Unplug the power supply before cleaning and let the appliance cool down.
  • Clean the outside of the appliance from time to time with a damp sponge. Wash the tank, the drip tray and its grid regularly and dry them.
  • Rinse the inside of the tank regularly.
  • When a fine white film obscures the tank, carry out a descaling operation (see Paragraph DESCALING).
  • Do not use alcohol or solvent based cleaning products.
  • To clean the hot water drip-through grid, regularly carry out an espresso preparation without coffee.
  • Use only a damp cloth without detergent or abrasive products.

Filter holder

Your appliance is equipped with a removable filter ejecting holder, which we recommend that you maintain in perfect working condition. We recommend that you clean it after each use. These removal/fitting operations must be carried out when the machine has cooled down.

  1. Removing the filter holder:
    • Remove the filter holder from your machine.
    • Dispose of the used grounds or pod by pressing the "Push" button (Fig. 15).
    • Rinse under running water.
    • Remove the bottom of the filter holder by rotating clockwise while turning the 2 fixed coffee outlets.
  2. Cleaning and rinsing the filter holder:
    The filter holder may then be cleaned using a household washing-up liquid and a scourer; it should be rinsed afterwards with running water. For best results, you may press the eject button several times while rinsing. We recommend shaking the filter holder vigorously in order to release any water that may have collected inside.
  3. Fitting the filter holder:
    Replace the bottom of the filter holder by turning it anticlockwise to lock it in place.

The drip tray

When the level gauge indicates that the drip tray is full, it must be emptied after first removing the grid (Fig. 18). The presence of water is normal and is not the sign of a leak. If required, clean the drip tray and its grid with water and a little non abrasive detergent. Rinse and dry.
Cleaning the drip tray

Steam nozzle (Figs 25a, 25b)

Cleaning the steam nozzle

This accessory consists of 2 parts: one part which is the plastic support and the other which is the metal protection cylinder.
Before cleaning, unlock the nozzle from the articulated arm by turning it to the left.
Then slide the metal cylinder along the plastic support.
Clean these two parts with tap water and some mild washing-up liquid.
Rinse and dry.
Once the parts have been properly cleaned, put the metal cylinder back on the support.
Make sure that you don't damage the silicone seal which makes the nozzle watertight.
Insert the nozzle on the articulated arm then twist to the right.

DESCALING

  • Regular descaling of your appliance, as described in paragraphs for coffee and steam functions, will guarantee its long service life. The frequency of descaling should be adapted to the hardness of your water. Ask your local water authority company for advice.
  • During the operation, do not stand your appliance on a marble surface. The descaler agent may damage it.
  • To make this clearer, please find below a summary table of the frequencies of the descaling operations according to the hardness of water and use:
    DESCALING FREQUENCY
    Av. number of coffees per week Soft water (<19°th) Hard water (19-30°th) Very hard water (>30°th)
    Less than 7 Once a year Every 8 months Every 6 months
    From 7 to 20 Every 4 months Every 3 months Every 2 months
    More than 20 Every 3 months Every 2 months Every month

If in doubt, we recommend carrying out a descaling operation every month. Any repair of the coffee maker due to:

  • lack of descaling
  • scale build-up

will not be covered by the guarantee.

Descaling the coffee function

  • Unplug the appliance.
  • Insert the filter holder (without ground coffee) into the appliance and lock it by turning it towards the right as far as possible (Fig. 3).
  • Place a container with a volume of more than 1/2 litre underneath the filter holder (Fig. 5).
  • Make sure that the selector dial d1 is in position.
  • Empty the tank and place it back securely in position (Fig. 1b - 1c).
  • Fill the tank with a mixture of three parts water to one part white vinegar or a mixture of 1/2 litre water and a sachet of citric / sulphamic acid.

  • When the temperature light of the ON/OFF button remains lit, you can switch to the position (coffee) (Fig. 4).
  • Let the mixture flow through (1/3).
  • Turn the selector dial to the position.
  • Wait for 2 minutes and then repeat the operation twice.
  • Now follow the instructions for descaling the steam function.

Descaling the steam function

  • Place a container under the steam nozzle.
  • Turn the selector dial d1 to the position (steam heating) (Fig. 16) (to obtain more steam, the temperature needs to be higher than when making coffee).
  • The LED of the ON/OFF button flashes and then remains lit.
  • Turn the selector dial d1 to the position (steam extraction) (Fig. 17): the steam pours into the liquid. Let the rest of the mixture flow for 2 minutes.
  • During the operation, it is normal for the water temperature light to light up and then turn off.
  • After a few moments, move the selector dial to position (d1).
  • When the selector dial d1 is in position, the appliance will automatically cool down. During the cooling down phase, the LED of the ON/OFF button will flash, and hot water and/or steam will run into the drip tray.

Rinsing

  • After descaling, perform 2-3 rinsing operations with clear water (without ground coffee), as described in Paragraph "Using for the first time".
  • Remember to rinse the steam nozzle (figs. 25.a, b). The appliance is descaled and ready to be used again.
