4. PREPARING SPECIALITY COFFEES
Your SPRADA machine oers a wide range of options for making
speciality coees to suit individual tastes. However, most of the
basic functions and controls are common to all the various speciality
coees:
• The turn/press selector knob on the left-hand side (left rotary
knob) (Fig 1/B): the left rotary knob is used to control the strength
and amount of your coee. Turning the left rotary knob alters
the amount of coee served in ml. Pressing the left rotary knob
alters the strength of your coee (bean symbol, Fig 1/D). The
more beans shown on the display, the stronger the coee.
• The turn/press selector knob on the right-hand side (right rotary
knob) (Fig 1/C). Turning the right rotary knob allows you to select
a drink or menu item on the display. Pressing the right rotary
knob tells the machine to begin preparing the drink shown on the
display or, if a menu item is shown on the display, takes you to
the sub-menu of the menu item selected. Pressing the left knob
will take you back to the previous menu level.
• Adjustable spout (Fig 1/E): the spout can be adjusted vertically
to suit the height of your cups or glasses.
The speciality coee selected is shown as a text item on the display,
e.g. “Espresso”.
Turning the right rotary knob allows you to go through the list of
speciality coees and select the one to be prepared.
Note: The current settings for your selected speciality coees
are shown at the bottom of the display.
Each speciality coee can be prepared in two ways:
• You can select the standard settings from the “Recipe” menu (a
sub-menu of the “Setting” menu). These are the factory settings,
which can be changed to suit your individual tastes by following
the steps outlined in Points 4.1 to 4.8.
• Alternatively, you can change the setting when making each
individual preparation, as described in Points 4.1 to 4.8. The
standard settings then remain unchanged.
The individual settings allow you to change:
• the aroma/strength;
• the amount poured into each cup or glass (in ml);
• the amount of coee (for drinks with milk) in ml;
• the amount of milk or froth (for drinks with milk) in ml;
• the temperature.
The procedures for preparing the various drink options are outlined
in Points 4.1 to 4.8.
