Setting The Portion Sizes - Miele CVA 620 Operating Instructions Manual

Setting the portion sizes

Important: the water piping must be rinsed
through and the machine cleaned thoroughly
before the first drink of coffee is prepared. Use
the rinse button for this, (see "Cleaning and
care"), and then prepare hot water afterwards,
(see "Preparing drinks").
The flavour of the coffee produced depends on the
type of coffee, how finely the beans are ground and
the quantity of water used. Espresso, coffee and tea
cups vary in size. To ensure the machine uses
exactly the amount of water to suit your taste and
your cups, there is a choice of four different portion
sizes:
three portion sizes for espresso/coffee (max. 250 ml)
and one for tea (max. 300 ml).
The coffee portion buttons are designed for the
following types of coffee:
The small/espresso button a dispenses a standard
size espresso to be served in a standard espresso
cup.
The medium coffee button b dispenses coffee for
a standard size coffee cup. It uses the same
quantity of ground coffee as an espresso, but adds
more water.
The large coffee button c dispenses a large
coffee, suitable for a large coffee cup or mug.
Again, only the volume of water is increased,
resulting in a milder flavour.
The volume of water dispensed by each button can
be altered to suit your needs.
Have the correct size of cup available to carry out
the following steps.
