Brief descriptionThis machine has a container for coffeebeans so that they can be freshlyground on demand for every cup tobenefit fully from the flavour.The ground coffee can also bemoistened with hot water(Pre-brewing), to develop the aroma.Then hot water is forced at highpressure through the ground coffee.If the machine is used by variouspeople with different tastes andpreferences, you can programmespecific settings for up to tenindividual users (User profiles).You can also add a portion of readyground coffee should someone prefera cup of decaffinated coffee, forexample.To prevent water from remaining in thepipes, any water left is expelled,resulting in a little trickle after the coffeehas been dispensed. The coffee is thenready.The used coffee grounds areautomatically emptied into the wastecontainer. There is no need to removethe grounds manually after each cup.The size of cup can be programmed inso that the correct amount isdispensed. If you decide to use asmaller cup than the programmed cupsize, preparation can be halted at anytime by pressing the control on theright.If two cups of coffee or espresso arerequired at the same time, the controlon the right must be pressed twicebriefly. The machine will fill the cups intwo stages with a slight pause inbetween.The machine can be programmed togrind from 6 to 14 g of coffee,depending on the type. Theprogrammed-in amount of coffee willbe the same for all sizes of cup(espresso, coffee, large coffee).The fineness to which the coffee isground can be adjusted.The lighting can be switched onindependently of operation. The upperand lower lighting can also be dimmedindependently of one another.For safety reasons, the electricitysupply to the brewing system and thecoffee grinder cuts out when themachine door is opened. The machinealso features a system lock to preventchildren from operating the machine.The easy to use programming facilityallows, amongst other things, thelanguage in the display to be changedand the water hardness to beprogrammed in.To ensure that the flavour can developfully and be maintained for longer themachine has an additional function toautomatically rinse and pre-warm thesystem when the machine is cold. Thesame function is used to flush coffeeremains out of the system and thespouts after use.12

The smaller the volume ofcoffee/espresso, the more important it is to pre-warm the cup.If you have not got a Miele plate warmer:^ Place the cup under the hot water spout.^ Turn the right hand control to "Hot water" and then press thecontrol.^ Allow a little hot water to run into the cup to warm it. Pressthe right hand control again to switch off the water.^ Leave the cup to warm for a while and then pour the wateraway.Adjusting the height of the coffee spoutsMaking coffeeYou can adjust the height of the coffee spouts to suit theheight of the cup so that the espresso or coffee will not cooldown as quickly as it would if the spouts were further awayfrom the cup. The crema will also be a better quality if thecoffee does not have so far to go!^ Gently pull the coffee spouts downwards (see illustration).21

Making coffeePreparing espresso and coffee from freshly ground beans^ Place a cup under the coffee spouts.The coffee is always dispensed simultaneously from bothspouts.^ Turn the right hand control to espresso or coffee and thenpress the control.The machine will now grind the coffee beans, pre-brew theground coffee (if the programme option "Pre-brewing" hasbeen set to "On") and the coffee will then be dispensed fromthe coffee spouts.Do not open the machine door during the brewingprocess. This will damage the machine.To ensure that any coffee residues from the factory testingprocess are removed from the brewing system, pleasethrow away the first two cups of coffee.Cancelling preparation^ To cancel the coffee making process, press the right handcontrol.Preparation will be stopped immediately.You can programme the size of portion dispensedfor espresso, coffee and cappuccino according toindividual and national tastes (see "Setting theportion sizes").22

This is because the machine will use allthe ground coffee which has been added to the chute toprepare one coffee.24

Making coffeeCappuccino and milk frothUsing for the first time or after descalingBefore the coffee machine leaves the factory, the pipework iscompletely pumped out. This also happens during thedescaling process. For this reason, water must be pumpedinto the pipework before using the machine to make acappuccino or to froth milk for the first time or after descaling:^ Place an empty cup under the Cappuccinatore spout.ESPRESSOFROTHCOFFEE MAINTENANCE ...CAPPUCCINO STANDARD n ...HOT WATER SETTINGS F ...^ Turn the right hand control to "Froth" and then press thecontrol.The Cappuccinatore will now draw water in for a while inorder to fill the pipework. A trickle of water will come out ofCappuccinatore spout.^ Once the machine has stopped, start the "Froth" processagain.After a while steam will come out of the Cappuccinatorespout and there will now be water in the system. You can nowprepare a cappuccino or froth milk.25

Making coffeeCappuccinoTo prepare a cappuccino you will need a large china orporcelain cup and a jug of milk.Froth is best made from cold, skimmed orsemi-skimmed milk (1.5% fat).Because the milk needs to be frothed, only one portionof Cappuccino can be prepared at one time.^ Place a jug of milk under the Cappuccinatore suction tubeand a cappuccino cup under the Cappuccinatore spout.ESPRESSOFROTHCOFFEE MAINTENANCE ...CAPPUCCINO STANDARD n ...HOT WATER SETTINGS F ...^ Turn the right hand control to "Cappuccino" and then pressthe control.The milk will be drawn up the suction tube, frothed in theCappuccinatore, and then dispensed into the cup whilst thebeans are grinding.When you have sufficient froth in the cup, stop themilk frothing process by pressing the right handcontrol.^ Then place the cappuccino cup under the two coffeespouts and press the right hand control.Your cappuccino is now ready!26

Making coffeeFrothing milkTo froth milk separately, use a cold, stainless steel jug thatnarrows towards the top. Froth is best made from cold,skimmed or semi-skimmed milk (1.5% fat).^ Fill the glass jug supplied with cold milk and place it underthe Cappuccinatore suction tube. Place the stainless steeljug under the Cappuccinatore spout.ESPRESSOFROTHCOFFEE MAINTENANCE ...CAPPUCCINO STANDARD n ...HOT WATER SETTINGS F ...^ Turn the right hand control to "Froth" and then press thecontrol.The milk will be drawn up the suction tube, frothed in theCappuccinatore, and then dispensed into the stainless steeljug.When you have sufficient froth in the jug, stop themilk frothing process by pressing the right handcontrol.After frothing milk or making cappuccinoAlways clean the Cappuccinatore systemimmediately after use, as it is harder to clean oncemilk has dried on. Dried on milk can block theCappuccinatore system resulting in poor frothing results oreven preventing it from working (see "Cleaning and care").27

Setting the coffee grinderA good espresso or coffee with a thick, even crema (froth)depends not only on the quality, pressure and temperature ofthe water and the quality of the coffee beans, but also on thequantity of beans and how finely they are ground.The crema should have an even colour with dark stripesrunning through it.You can set the amount of coffee beans to be ground in themain menu (see "Settings: Customising your machine -"Amount of coffee").Always adjust the amount of beans to be ground onestage at a time only and then let the machine grind thisquantity before adjusting the amount again. Otherwise themachine will be damaged.There are various ways to tell whether the coffee grinder is setcorrectly:– If espresso or coffee flows too quickly into the cup, itmeans that the coffee has been ground too coarsely andthe pressure is not sufficient. The grinder should be set ona finer setting.– If espresso or coffee only trickles into the cup, the coffeehas been ground too finely and the coffee will be bitter. Thegrinder should be set on a coarser setting.– If the crema is evenly coloured but pale, this is also a signthat the coffee beans have been ground too coarsely.– If the crema is very dark brown on one side, graduatingalmost to white on the other, it suggests that coffee beanshave been ground too finely.28

To alter the grinder settingSetting the coffee grinder^ push the slide control to the left (for finer grinding) or to theright (for coarser grinding).You should be able to feel the notches when moving the slidecontrol.If the slide refuses to move,^ close the machine and dispense a cup of espresso coffee.Then try the slide control again.29

The water hardness level indicates how much calciumis dissolved in the water. The higher the calcium content, theharder the water, and the harder the water, the more often themachine will need to be descaled.The machine measures the amount of water which has beentaken in (including the amount required for producing steam).The amount of water which the machine can use before itneeds to be descaled will depend on the water hardnesslevel set. Less water will be used in hard water areas than insoft water areas.Your local water authority will be able to tell you the hardnessof water in your area. Alternatively, you can measure thehardness yourself using the enclosed test strip:45

Settings: Customising your machine^ Dip the strip in your drinking water for approximately asecond, then shake off any excess water. The result will beevident after about a minute.If the water is harder than 40 °d / 7.0 mmol/l, limescale willbuild up more rapidy than with soft water.

Cleaning and careAlways allow the machine to cool down before cleaning.Danger of scalding.Do not clean the machine with a steam cleaner as this willdamage the machine.Never use cleaners containing chlorides, acids, soda orscouring agents. These would damage the surface.RinsingIt is important to clean the machine regularly, as the usedcoffee grounds will soon go mouldy.With the exception of the brew unit and the coffee beancontainer, all removable parts can be cleaned in adishwasher. If the parts are cleaned frequently in adishwasher, they can become discoloured from regularcontact with food residues (e.g. tomatoes) in the dishwasher.If you have set the automatic rinsing function to off becauseyou do not want the machine to rinse the brewing systemautomatically, you will need to rinse the system throughmanually. This needs to be done before making the first drinkof the day and also after making the last drink of the day.ESPRESSOFROTHCOFFEE MAINTENANCE ...CAPPUCCINO STANDARD n ...HOT WATER SETTINGS F ...^ Turn the right hand control until "Maintenance" ishighlighted and then press the control.MAINTENANCEBack ARINSE CAPPUCCINATORERINSE SYSTEMCLEANING^ Turn the right hand control until "Rinse system" ishighlighted and then press the control.Water will run out of the coffee spouts and the hot water spoutand the piping will be rinsed through.

Water containerCleaning and careEmpty the water container daily and fill with fresh, colddrinking water just before use.When cleaning, make sure that there is no soiling in thearea around the valve. Otherwise the container will not sitcorrectly and this could result in water leaking from themachine.Waste container^ Clean the surface the water container sits on thoroughly.After a certain period of time a reminder to empty the wastecontainer will appear in the display. The waste container mustbe cleaned when this message appears. However it is betterto clean the waste container every day to prevent coffeegrounds from turning mouldy.There will probably also be water in the waste container leftover from the rinsing process.Lining the waste unit with one or two pieces ofkitchen paper towel will make it easier to tip thegrounds out.^ Pull the waste container forwards to remove it.^ Clean the waste container with hot water and a littlewashing-up liquid or in the dishwasher and dry with a cloth.55

Cleaning and careDrip tray^ Also clean the now accessible area in the machine wherethe waste container sits, thoroughly.^ Push the waste container fully back into the machine.There is a sensor in the drip tray which causes a message toappear in the display when the drip tray is full and needs tobe emptied. Remove the tray and empty and clean it whenthis message appears.However, to avoid a build-up of odours, the drip tray shouldbe cleaned every day.After running the last rinse you should leave the drip trayin position for a while before cleaning it so that you catchany remaining from the system.^ Open the machine door and carefully remove the drip trayfrom the machine.There is a grid in the drip tray. This grid prevents the waterfrom spilling out of the drip tray when it is being carried.^ Clean the drip tray and the grid with hot water and a littlewashing-up liquid, or in the dishwasher and dry with acloth.Make sure that the metal contact discs at the top of thedrip tray are cleaned and dried properly. These metaldiscs send a signal to the machine when the drip tray isfull or if it is not in the machine. The discs will not conveythese messages if they are dirty or damp.56^ Push the drip tray with the grid along the right hand edgeback into the machine.^ Close the machine door.
