Brewing temperature
The ideal brewing temperature will
depend on:
–
the type of coffee,
–
whether an espresso or a coffee is
being prepared, and
–
the altitude of the region.
If the coffee system is located at more
than 6562 ft. (2000 meters) above sea
level, the brewing temperature needs to
be set lower due to the change in
pressure. This is because the boiling
point for water at a high altitude above
sea level is lower than the boiling point
for water at sea level.
The coffee system has five brewing
temperatures.
Tip: Not all types of coffee can
withstand high temperatures. Certain
types are too delicate - the crema on
top would not be as good and the taste
would be impaired.

Pre-brewing
When the pre-brewing function is
turned on, the freshly ground coffee is
first moistened with a little hot water.
Then the remaining water is forced
through the moistened coffee at high
pressure. This helps release the flavor
of the coffee.
You can set pre-brewing for a normal
length of time or an extra long length of
time. Alternatively, you can turn off the
"Pre-brewing" function.
The machine is supplied with the
"Pre-brewing" function turned off.
^ Select "Pre-brewing" and touch OK.
^ Select the setting you want and touch
OK.
The setting is now saved.
