Customizing Your Coffee; Grinder Setting - Miele CVA6405 Operating And Installation Instructions

To ensure that your coffee system is
ideally adjusted to the type of coffee
you use, you can use the "Parameters"
, menu to change the ground amount,
adjust the brewing temperature or
select the "Pre-brewing" option.
You can customize these settings for
each beverage.
You can also adjust the grinder setting
to suit the type of coffee you are using.

Grinder setting

When the beans are ground correctly
the coffee or espresso will flow evenly
into the cup and have a good crema.
The ideal crema has a hazel coloring.
There are various ways to tell whether
the coffee grinder is set correctly.
The grind is too coarse if
– espresso or coffee flows into the cup
too quickly;
– the crema is very pale and uneven.
Use a finer grinder setting so the coffee
beans will be ground more finely.
The grind is too fine if
– espresso or coffee flows into the cup
very slowly;
– the crema is dark brown.
Use a coarser grinder setting so the
coffee beans will be ground more
coarsely.

Customizing your coffee

To prevent damage to the grinder:
Adjust the coffee grinder one level
at a time.
Let the beans grind before adjusting
another notch.
^ Open the appliance door.
^ Push the grinder slide control to the
left by no more than one level (for a
finer grind) or to the right (for a
coarser grind).
^ Close the appliance door.
^ Prepare a coffee beverage.
Then you can adjust the grinder by
another level.
The adjusted grinder setting will only
take effect after the second coffee
portion.
