Steam Function - Krups XP52 Serie Manual De Instrucciones

English
n Remove the used espresso coffee grounds using the ejection system by pressing the "EJECT" button
located between the two coffee outlet nozzles (fig.11). Wash the filter holder under running water,
pressing "EJECT" to eliminate the remnants of grounds.
The filter holder now can be filled again to prepare other espressos.
IMPORTANT: If you want a strong or light espresso, vary the amount of coffee or water (a full
spoon for a strong espresso and a less full spoon for a light espresso). But in both cases, be
sure to tighten your filter holder as much as possible.
WITH AN "E.S.E." ESPRESSO POD
"ESE" for "Easy Serving Espresso" is a packaged pod (44 mm diameter) of 7g of selected
coffee, ground and compacted between two paper filters, specially designed to make Italian
style ristretto (tight) espressos.
These instructions allow for simple and clean use of your machine.
n 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.
n 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.
n If the pod is not positioned correctly, the result in the cup will not be satisfactory.
n Never use two pods together.
n Then, follow steps shown in pictures 7 to 11.
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-bodied
espresso than with an E.S.E. pod.
n 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.
n Place a soft pod in the filter holder. Never use two pods together. If the pod is not positioned correctly,
the result in the cup will not be satisfactory.
n Then, follow steps shown in pictures 7 to 11.

6. STEAM FUNCTION

Steam is used to foam 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.
Warning: during and after using the appliance, the metal parts of the steam nozzle can become very hot.
USING THE STEAM NOZZLE TO FROTH MILK
n Fill the water tank and turn the machine on (fig. 1, 2, 3 and 4).
n Turn the switch to the "steam preheating" position. The indicator light will flash (fig.12).
n Move the steam nozzle towards the outside of the appliance.
