THE C1000
The C1000 can prepare 1 or 2 cups of excellent, professional-quality espresso
or 1 or 2 cups of regular coffee at a time. The unique pre-wetting function
ensures optimal coffee extraction. The C1000 functions fully automatically at
the touch of a button. You have the choice between normal, strong and extra
strong coffee to suit your personal taste. The integrated burr grinder grinds
beans to the preferred fineness level. A separate filler funnel lets you use
ground coffee. The volume dial lets you prepare any amount of coffee between
1
/2 oz. and 16 oz. at a time. The water level and the used coffee container are
monitored automatically. There are three programmable control buttons for

3. A WORD ABOUT “CREMA COFFEE”
(Pressure Brewed Coffee)
According to the majority of coffee experts, grinding, tamping and brewing
under high pressure is the ideal extracting process for maximum flavor and
aroma. Your C1000 will always produce espresso and coffee with a thick,
foamy layer called "Crema." The Crema traps the fine aromatics and the light
gaseous flavors that register on the palate. The high pressure and the short
brewing time prevent the extraction of bitter oils and release less caffeine than
any other brewing methods. You will always make the absolute freshest and
most aromatic cup of coffee. This is also the reason why many European
restaurants and hotels will serve you freshly pressured brewed coffee only.
Experiment with your new C1000 and prepare yourself the best and most
enjoyable cup of coffee!
