Betjeningsvejledning

Brygning af espresso:

  1. Sørg for, at maskinen er afkølet og ikke tilsluttet stikkontakten.
  2. Fill the glass carafe with fresh, cold water to the desired level (2 or 4 cups). Pour this water into the water reservoir and close the lid securely.
  3. Using the measuring scoop, add finely ground espresso coffee to the portafilter. For 2 cups, fill to the '2' line; for 4 cups, fill to the '4' line.
  4. Let tamp the coffee grounds with the flat end of the measuring scoop to create an even, compact surface.
  5. Insert the portafilter into the brewing head and turn the handle to the right until it is firmly locked.
  6. Place the glass carafe on the removable drip tray, ensuring it is aligned under the portafilter spouts.
  7. Plug in the machine and turn the control knob to the 'Brew' position. The power indicator light will turn red.
  8. Wait for the espresso to brew into the carafe. The brewing process will stop automatically once all the water has passed through.

Skumme mælk:

The frothing arm allows you to create creamy froth for lattes and cappuccinos.

  1. After brewing your espresso, ensure there is still water in the reservoir for steaming.
  2. Fill a small, heat-resistant pitcher or mug with cold milk (dairy or plant-based). Do not fill more than halfway, as milk expands when frothed.
  3. Position the frothing arm into the milk, ensuring the tip is just below the surface.
  4. Turn the control knob to the 'Steam' position. The frothing arm will begin to release steam.
  5. Move the pitcher up and down gently, keeping the frothing arm tip just below the surface, to create froth.
  6. Once the milk has reached your desired temperature and froth consistency, turn the control knob to the 'Off' position.
  7. Immediately wipe the frothing arm with a damp klud for at forhindre mælkerester i at tørre ind.

Vedligeholdelse og rengøring

Regelmæssig rengøring sikrer optimal ydeevne og levetid for din espressomaskine.

Daglig rengøring:

  • Portafilter: After each use, remove the portafilter, discard used coffee grounds, and rinse thoroughly under warm water.
  • Glaskaraffel: Vask med varmt sæbevand efter hver brug.
  • Frothing Arm: Immediately after frothing, wipe the frothing arm with a damp cloth. To clear any internal milk residue, place a mug with a small amount of water under the frothing arm and briefly turn the control knob to 'Steam' to flush it out.
  • Drip Catcher/Removable Tray: Tøm og skyl drypbakken dagligt.
  • Ydre: Tør maskinens ydre af med en blød, damp klæde. Brug ikke slibende rengøringsmidler.

Afkalkning:

Med tiden kan der ophobes mineralaflejringer i maskinen, hvilket påvirker dens ydeevne. Afkalk din maskine hver 2.-3. måned, eller oftere, hvis du har hårdt vand.

  1. Forbered en afkalkningsopløsning i henhold til afkalkningsproduktets anvisninger, eller brug en blanding af hvid eddike og vand (forholdet 1:1).
  2. Hæld afkalkningsopløsningen i vandbeholderen.
  3. Placer en tom kande på drypbakken.
  4. Turn the machine on and run a brew cycle until half of the solution has passed through.
  5. Sluk maskinen, og lad den stå i 15-20 minutter.
  6. Tænd maskinen igen, og lad den resterende opløsning køre gennem bryggecyklussen.
  7. Skyl beholderen og kør 2-3 cyklusser med frisk, rent vand for at skylle eventuel resterende afkalkningsopløsning ud.
