Tips
To enjoy an aromatic espresso or coffee, please note the following tips:
•
Always preheat the cups on the hotplate (1).
•
Rinse out the cups with hot water immediately before using them.
After the device has heated up, fi rst allow hot water to run through the sieve insert (6, 7, 10)
•
and the portafi lter (8, 9) before you fi ll them with espresso / coffee powder, coffee pads or
coffee capsules.
•
Experiment with the amount of espresso / coffee powder to suit your own personal taste. As
a guideline, you can reckon on 7 g of espresso / coffee powder for a normal cup of espresso
or coffee.
•
If possible, always use freshly ground espresso / coffee powder to achieve an optimum fl avour.
•
The grinding fi neness of the espresso / coffee powder also has an infl uence on the aroma and
the crema. Here too you can experiment with different grinding fi nenesses.
•
Do not press down the espresso / coffee powder in the sieve insert too fi rmly. If the espresso
/ coffee powder is pressed too much, this may increase the processing time, thus producing
increased levels of bitter compounds.
•
Clean and descale the device regularly (see the "Cleaning and Care" chapter – "Descaling"). A
dirty and / or furred-up device compromises the fl avour.
