HOW TO PREPARE COFFEE USING THE FILTER
HOLDER FOR PODS (if fitted):
• Preheat the machine as described in the
'Preheating the Coffee Machine' section, making

delivered at a hotter temperature, as well as
guaranteeing that the seal of the filter holder
gaskets is more effective.
• Press the filter holder button and insert the pod into
the filter (fig 14). Follow the instructions on the
pod's box to pur correctly the pod oon the filter.
Note: Use pods which conform to the ESE
standard: this will be indicated on the packaging
by the following symbol:
The ESE standard is a system accepted by the leading
coffee pod manufacturers, and allows espresso coffee
to be prepared simply and without any mess.
• Attach the filter holder onto the machine, moving
from left to right (fig 5).
If the waffle filter holder is used, after using the filter
holder for ground coffee, it is essential to first
remove any coffee grains (fig.24) that may have
stuck to the hot water drip spout. If this cleaning is
not done, water may exit from the sides of the
waffle filter holder while the coffee is being made.
• Proceed as in points 4, 5 and 6 in the previous
section on how to prepare espresso.
• To remove the pod, press the button on the filter
holder and simply lift the pod out

HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO

1.Prepare espresso coffee, using cups that are large
enough for cappuccinos (see "How to prepare
espresso coffee).
2.Turn the selector knob to the
The "cappuccino function" and "boiler on" red lights
will come on. Wait until the orange "OK" light comes
on, to indicate that the boiler has reached the ideal
temperature for producing steam.
3.In the meantime, fill a container with approximately
3 fl. oz of milk for each cappuccino to be prepared.
The milk must be cold from the refrigerator (not
warm!). In choosing the container, bear in mind that
the volume of the milk will increase by 2 or 3 times.
Semi skimmed milk gives best results.
NOTE: We suggest you used semi-skimed milk at
refrigerator temperature.
4.Position the container with the milk in it under the
milk frother (fig. 16).
5.Immerse the cappuccino maker nozzle about 2 cm
deep into the milk and turn the steam knob in an
anti-clockwise direction (fig. 17) (by turning the knob
to a greater or lesser extent, it is possible to vary the
quantity of steam that comes out from the cappuccino
maker). At this point, the milk will begin to increase
in volume and to appear frothy.
6.Once the desired temperature has been reached (the
ideal temperature is 60°C), stop the delivery of steam
by turning the steam knob in a clockwise direction
and at the same time positioning the selector knob at
"O" (fig. 13).
7.Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the
espresso coffee. Your cappuccino is now ready. Add
sugar to taste and, if desired, sprinkle a little
powdered chocolate on top of the froth.
IMPORTANT: always clean the milk frother and steam
nozzle immediately after use. Proceed as follows:
1.By turning the steam knob (fig. 17), allow a little
steam to come out for a few seconds. Then close
firmly by turning clockwise.
2.Hold the upper part tight with one hand and use your
other hand to unscrew the cappuccino maker,
rotating it in a clockwise direction, and remove it
from the nozzle (fig. 18).
3.Remove the steam nozzle by sliding it off the delivery
tube (fig. 19).
4.Wash the cappuccino maker and steam nozzle
thoroughly with tepid water.
5.Check that the two holes (indicated by an arrow)
shown in fig. 19 are not blocked. If necessary, clean
them with the help of a pin.
