Coffee The Way You Like It; Grinder Setting - Miele CVA 6405 Operating Instructions Manual

Coffee the way you like it

To set the coffee machine for the type
of coffee you are using, you can
change the amount of coffee, set the
brewing temperature or switch on the
"Pre-brewing option in the "Parameters"
, menu. This can be done for each
type of drink.
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 with a good crema.
The crema should have an even nut-
brown colour.
There are various ways to tell whether
the coffee grinder is set correctly.
The coffee is too coarsely ground, if
– espresso or coffee flows into the cup
very quickly.
– the crema is very pale and uneven.
Set a finer grinder setting.
The coffee is too finely ground, if
– espresso or coffee only trickles into
the cup.
– the crema is dark brown.
Set a coarser grinder setting.

To avoid damaging the grinder:
Only ever adjust the grinder by one
setting at a time.
Grind the coffee beans again if you
want to adjust the grinder to the next
setting.
^ Open the front of the coffee machine.
^ Push the slide control one setting to
the left (for finer grinding) or one
setting to the right (for coarser
grinding).
^ Close the front.
^ Make a coffee.
Then move the slide control again.
The altered grinder setting will not be
used until after the second coffee has
been dispensed.
