The ESE standard is a system accepted by lead-
ing pod producers and enables espresso coee
to be prepared simply and cleanly.
1. Place the lter for coee pods (with the symbol on
the bottom) in the lter holder.
2. Insert the pod, centring it as far as possible on the lter
(g. 11). Always follow the instructions on the pod pack to
position the pod on the lter correctly.
Proceed as described in points 4 to 6 in the previous section.
Please note:
• While the appliance is making coee, delivery can be in-
terrupted at any moment by pressing the coee button
pressed previously.
• At the end of delivery (within 3 seconds), to increase the
amount of coee in the cup, press and hold the coee but-
ton pressed previously. Delivery is automatically interrupt-
ed after a few seconds.
• To remove the lter holder, turn the handle from right to
left.
Danger of burns!
To avoid splashes, never remove the lter holder while the
appliance is delivering coee. Always wait for a few seconds
after delivery.
10.4 Programming the quantities of coee in
the cup
The appliance is set by default to automatically deliver standard
quantities. To change these quantities, proceed as follows:
1. Place one or two cups under the lter holder spouts.
2. Press and hold the button you want to programme (
or ). The coee maker starts delivering coee and
the other coee button ashes to indicate that the appli-
ance is in programming mode.
3. Once the required quantity of coee has been delivered
into the cup, release the button. Delivery stops and the
light ashes to indicate that the quantity has been saved
correctly.
4. When the two coee lights come on steadily, the appliance
is ready for use.
11. H OW TO MAKE CAPP UCCINO
1. Prepare the espresso coees as described in the previous
paragraphs, using suciently large cups.
2. Press the button (g. 12). The light ashes;
3. In the meantime, ll a recipient with about 100 g of milk
for each cappuccino to be prepared.
The milk must be at refrigerator temperature (not hot!).
In choosing the size of the recipient, bear in mind that the
milk doubles or triples in volume (g. 13).
Please note:
You are recommended to use semi-skimmed milk at refrigerator
temperature.
4. Wait for the light corresponding to the button to
come on steadily, indicating that the boiler has reached
the ideal temperature to produce steam.
5. Position an empty container under the cappuccino maker
and open the dial for a few seconds to eliminate any air left
in the circuit. Close the dial again.
6. Place the recipient containing the milk under the cappucci-
no maker.
7. Dip the cappuccino maker in the milk for a few millimetres
(g. 14).
Turn the dial to the position. Steam is delivered
from the cappuccino maker, giving the milk a creamy
frothy appearance. To obtain a creamier froth, immerse the
cappuccino maker in the milk and rotate the container with
slow upward movements.
8. When the milk has doubled in volume, immerse the cap-
puccino maker deeply and continue heating the milk (g.
15). When the required temperature (the ideal is 60°C) and
froth density is reached, interrupt steam delivery by tur-
ning the steam dial clockwise.
9. Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espresso
coee prepared previously.
The cappuccino is ready. Sweeten to taste and if desired,
sprinkle the froth with a little cocoa powder.
Please note:
• to prepare more than one cappuccino, rst make all the
coees then at the end prepare the frothed milk for all the
cappuccinos.
• to exit the steam function, press any button. The lights
and ash to indicate that the temperature is
too high to make coee (see section “Cooling the boiler”).
You should not deliver steam for more than
60 seconds.
