21. TIPS FOR BETTER COFFEE
Height adjustable coffee-spout
Adjust the height of the coffee-spout to the size of your cups.
Grinding
Please refer to chapters 6 and 7.
Hotter Coffee / Pre-warm cups
You should warm cups in advance with hot water or steam.
The smaller the quantity of coffee, the more important it is to
warm your cups (see chapter 9a).
Hotter Cream and Milk
Adding milk or cream from the refrigerator considerably lowers
the temperature of the coffee. Preheat milk and cream with the
steam function then brew your coffee (see chapter 11).
22. TROUBLESHOOTING
A. NO COFFEE COMES OUT OF THE COFFEE SPOUT
Concern: Beans in bean container are not properly feeding into
the grinder because they are stuck together.
Solution: Stir beans before grinding and while grinding turn the
grinding selector to the coarsest setting. See chapter 7.
Concern: You used ground coffee in the ground coffee funnel.
The ground coffee was too fine.
Solution: Use ground coffee which is ground somewhat coarser.
Concern: No water is transported through the system.
Solution: Remove water container and make sure that the
con-necting valve is free of any particles (like a coffee bean etc).
Concern: The ground coffee funnel or the internal brewing chamber
is clogged.
Solution: Place a cup underneath the coffee spout. Turn the
DIAL to highlight the RINSE symbol. Push the DIAL to rinse the
coffee spouts. Repeat the process if necessary until the blocked
coffee is pushed into the used coffee container.
B. INSUFFICIENT FROTHED MILK PRODUCTION
Concern: Milk is initially not cold enough or your milk is not
suited for thick frothing.
Solution: Make sure milk is cold. Use a different type of milk.
Skim milk will produce the thickest and longest lasting froth.
Whole milk will produce less thick froth.
Concern: The components of the frother are not assembled
properly, or the components are clogged with hardened milk, or
one or more of the components is missing, or the steam nozzle
is clogged.
Solution: (See chapter 13)
a. Remove frother. Check that steam comes out of the
steam nozzle. If not, use a needle and clear blockage from
inside steam nozzle.
b. Clean all other frother parts and assemble properly.
c. If any parts are missing either call Customer Service at:
1-800-220-5701 or use the enclosed mail order form to order
the missing part.
C. GRINDER MAKES AN EXTREMELY LOUD NOISE;
NO BEANS ARE GROUND
Concern: A stone is blocking the burr grinder.
Solution: Call customer service at: 1-800-220-5701.
