How to prepare espresso coee using pods
1. Preheat the appliance as described in the section “PRE-
HEATING THE COFFEE UNIT”, making sure the lter holder
is attached. This obtains a hotter coee.
Please note:
Use pods conforming to the ESE standard, indicated on the pack
by the following symbol.
The ESE standard is a system accepted by leading
pod producers and enables espresso coee to be
prepared simply and cleanly.
2. Place the small lter in the lter holder, making sure the
projection is correctly inserted in the slot as shown in g.
13.
3. Insert the pod, centring it as far as possible on the lter
(g. 20). Always follow the instructions on the pod pack to
position the pod on the lter correctly.
4. Attach the lter holder to the appliance. Always turn as far
as it will go (g. 14).
5. Proceed as in points 5, 6 and 7 in the previous section.
9. HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO
1. Prepare the espresso coees as described in the previous
sections, using suciently large cups.
2. Press the button. The corresponding light comes on
(g. 21).
3. In the meantime, ll a recipient with about 3.5 oz/100
grams of milk for each cappuccino to be prepared. In
choosing the size of the recipient, bear in mind that the
milk doubles or triples in volume.
Please note:
You are recommended to use skimmed or semi-skimmed milk at
refrigerator temperature (about 5°C).
4. Place the recipient containing the milk under the cappucci-
no maker.
5. Wait until the light comes on (g. 21). The light comes
on to indicate that the boiler has reached the ideal tem-
perature for steam production. As the boiler heats up, it is
normal for a little water and steam to be given o into the
drip tray.
6. Remove the cappuccino maker by rotating to the left (g.
22). During this operation, avoid touching the boiler outlet
as it is hot. Then place the recipient containing the milk
under the cappuccino maker.
7. Dip the cappuccino maker in the milk for a few millimetres
(g. 23). Turn the steam dial to the ON position (g.
24). Steam is delivered from the cappuccino maker, giving
the milk a creamy frothy appearance. For a creamier froth,
immerse the cappuccino maker in the milk and move the
container with slow upward movements.
8. When the milk has doubled in volume, immerse the cap-
puccino maker deeply and continue heating the milk.
When the required temperature (the ideal is 60°C) and
froth density is reached, interrupt steam delivery by turn-
ing the steam dial to the OFF position and press the
button.
9. Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espresso
coee prepared previously. The cappuccino is ready. Sweet-
en to taste and if desired, sprinkle the froth with a little
cocoa powder.
Please note:
• To prepare more than one cappuccino, rst make all the
coees then at the end prepare the frothed milk for all the
cappuccinos.
• To make coee again after the milk has been frothed,
cool down the boiler rst or the coee will be burnt.
To cool the boiler, place a container under the boiler outlet,
press the button (g. 15) and deliver water until the
OK light goes o. Press the button again and prepare the
coee as described in the previous paragraphs.
You are recommended to deliver steam for a
maximum of 60 seconds and never to froth
milk more than three times consecutively.
Important:
For hygiene reasons, the cappuccino maker should always be
cleaned after use.
Proceed as follows:
1. Deliver a little steam for a few seconds (points 2 and 5 of
the previous section) by turning the steam dial (g. 24).
This causes the cappuccino maker to discharge any milk
left inside. Turn the appliance on again by pressing the ON/
OFF button.
2. With one hand, hold the cappuccino maker spout rmly,
with the other, release the cappuccino maker by turning it
anticlockwise, then pull o downwards (g. 25).
3. Remove the steam connection nozzle from the spout by
pulling it downwards.
4. Wash the cappuccino maker and steam connection nozzle
thoroughly with warm water.
5. Make sure the two holes shown by the arrows in g. 26 are
not blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin.
6. Put the steam connection nozzle back, pressing forcefully
upwards to insert it onto the steam tube.
7. Replace the cappuccino maker by pushing upwards and
turning clockwise.
