The amounts above are approximate only. Actual amounts may vary due to the type of filter
used, the coffee bean size, roast, blend and freshness, or amount and type of pre-ground
coffee used.
4. Select the Brew Strength or ‘PRE-GROUND’ Coffee Setting
Press the STRENGTH | FLAVOUR button. The LCD screen will flash the current strength setting
and the
and
buttons will illuminate and flash. Use these buttons to cycle through 7
strength settings from ‘MILD’, ‘STRONG’ to ‘INTENSE’ or for the ‘PRE-GROUND’ coffee setting.
Press the STRENGTH | FLAVOUR button to select. The LCD screen will flash the current flavour
setting.
Note: If using pre-ground coffee, select the ‘PRE-GROUND’ coffee setting. This will disable
the burr grinder. Add pre-ground coffee to the Longlife-Filter or a paper filter 85/215 mm).
We recommend 1 level tablespoon of pre-ground coffee per 150 ml cup of water. Adjust the
amount according to your individual taste. The maximum capacity for pre-ground coffee is 16
level tablespoons. Exceeding this amount may cause overflow.
5. Select the Flavour Setting
Press the STRENGTH | FLAVOUR button until the LCD screen flashes the current flavour
setting and the
and
buttons illuminate and flash. Use these buttons to cycle through
5 flavour settings from ‘LITE’ to ‘BOLD’. These settings vary the steeping time of the coffee
and water. The ‘LITE’ setting steeps for less time to produce a light-flavoured cup. The ‘BOLD’
setting steeps for more time for a bolder, more full-flavoured coffee.
Press the STRENGTH | FLAVOUR button to select. The LCD screen will cease to flash once
selected.
Note: Steam may emit from the rear steam vent during grinding and brewing. This is normal.
The count-down timer will then begin. The time displayed is an estimate only and will depend
on the amount, strength and flavour settings you have selected.
The LCD screen will display:
a) ‘PRE-HEATING’ as the water is heated to the optimal temperature. The pre-heating time
will depend on the starting temperature of the water in the water tank.
b) ‘STEEPING’ as coffee and water are steeped together.
c) ‘BREWING’ as the coffee is dispensed into the cup.
To stop the cycle at any time, press the START | CANCEL button. You will hear a winding
noise. This is normal.
CAUTION
Never open the swing-out door and remove the coffee basket while brewing. Hot water and
coffee can cause injury.
