This system allows immediate, simple, clean and comfortable use of your machine.
Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4). During the pre-heating phase, the
indicator light will flash.
Tear the excess paper off the pod, put the E.S.E. pod in the filter holder with the red writing facing
down (fig.6).
Be sure to place all the paper inside the filter holder, otherwise there might be leaks.
If the pod is not placed correctly, the coffee you'll get in the cup will not be satisfactory.
Never use two pods together.
Follow the steps in figures 7 to 11 in the preparation of an espresso.
WITH A SOFT POD
Your machine is also compatible with soft pods (usually 60 mm in diameter). Given that this
kind of pod is not specifically designed for espresso machines, you will get a less full-bo-
died espresso than with an E.S.E. pod.
Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4). During the pre-heating phase, the
indicator light will flash.
Place a soft pod in the filter holder. Never use two pods together. If the pod is not placed correctly,
the coffee you'll get in the cup will not be satisfactory.
Follow the steps in figures 7 to 11 in the preparation of an espresso.
The steam is used to foam up milk (for example to make a cappuccino or a cafe latte).
To produce steam, the pump works by emitting an intermittent noise.
After using the steam function, the appliance cools automatically by pumping cold water
through the heating system. During the pumping cycles, the excess steam in the heating system
is released with the hot water into the drip tray.
The steam and noise that accompany this phase are important for cooling the appliance.
NOTE:
during and after using the appliance, the metal parts of the steam nozzle can
be very hot.
USING THE STEAM NOZZLE TO FROTH MILK
Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4).
Turn the switch to the “steam preheating” position. The indicator lamp flashes (fig.12).
Turn the steam nozzle towards the outside of the appliance.
Pour 60 to 100ml of very fresh, very cold milk into a small container of about 1/2 litre and which can
go under the steam nozzle. The milk and its container should be quite cold.
We recommend that you use pasteurised or UHT milk and that you avoid untreated milk.
As soon as the indicator lamp stops blinking, plunge the steam nozzle into the milk.
Turn the switch to the “steam” position (fig. 13).
For good results, hold the nozzle at the bottom of the container for about 25 seconds while the milk
heats (without however touching the bottom). Then bring the container down gradually so that the
nozzle moves up towards the surface (without ever coming out of the milk) (fig.14).
Once the froth has been formed, turn the switch to the “stop” position (fig.15).The appliance will
now automatically cool itself by launching 3 intermittent pumping cycles. Once this is automatic
operation is complete, you can make a coffee.
