21. TIPS FOR BETTER COFFEE
Pre-warm your cups
A warm cup will keep the coffee hot longer. Hold your cup
underneath the frother and push the Hot Water Button (Fig. 4a)
for a few seconds. Discard the water into the drawer.
Move the coffee spout close to the cup
This way the coffee will loose less aroma.
Sugar and cream
Cold milk reduces the temperature of your coffee. If you like your
coffee "with cream" or with "cream and sugar", add it to the cup
first and steam it for a few seconds. Then add the coffee.
Extremely hot coffee
If you like your coffee extremely hot, the Impressa F9 can
accommodate you. Brew your coffee, but reduce the cup size by
approx.
1
⁄2 oz., e.g. if you plan to brew a 6 oz. cup, change the
cup size in programming to 5
1
⁄2 oz. (165 ML). After brewing your
coffee, push the Steam Button (Fig. 4b) and wait until the light
stops blinking. Move the cylinder of the frother up for steaming
(Fig. 18). Now immerse the tip of the frother into your cup. Push
the Steam Button again and inject steam for about 10 to 20 sec-
onds. Your coffee will be extremely hot.
Please note: Some of the aroma of the coffee will be lost in this
process.
