Ground coffee
You can choose to use a second coffee variety, for example decaffeinated coffee, with the filter funnel for ground coffee.
Basic information about ground coffee:
U
Activate the ground coffee mode in the programming mode (MENU) to prepare speciality beverages with ground coffee.
U
Never add more than two level measuring spoons of ground coffee.
U
Use ground coffee which is not ground too finely. Very fine coffee can block up the system so that the coffee only comes out in drips.
U
If you did not fill the machine with a sufficient amount of ground coffee, ADD POWDER is displayed and the C8 stops the operation.
U
The desired speciality coffee must be prepared within approximately one minute after filling with the ground coffee. Otherwise the C8
stops the operation and is once more ready for use.
