Making Espresso; Making Cappuccino - WMF Lumero Instrucciones De Uso

Making espresso

First, assemble the collection tray to ensure the right distance between the cup and portafilter. To do
this, remove the drip tray (I) and take the collection tray out of the device. Remove the top edge of
the collection tray (J), reverse and place in the opening
where the collection tray was previously. Position the collection tray and then secure the drip tray (I).
1. Fill the water tank with drinking water using the required amount of water; do not fill beyond the
MAX marker.
2. Insert the portafilter for ground coffee (1 or 2-cup insert) into the portafilter holder.
⋅ Before adding the ground coffee, make sure that the portafilter is clean and there are no
coffee grounds from previous use.
⋅ Fill the portafilter a little at a time to prevent spillages.
Note: In general, use one level spoon of ground coffee (around 9 grams) for an espresso with the
measuring spoon provided, or weigh out around 14 grams for 2 cups. However, you can adjust the
amount to suit your taste. We recommend filling the portafilter so it is heaped then clearing off the
excess coffee.
3. Distribute the ground coffee evenly and press down with the tamper. Pressing down the ground
coffee correctly is very important in order to make a good espresso. If it is pressed down too firmly,
the coffee runs through too slowly and is strong. However, if it is not pressed down enough, the
coffee runs through too quickly and is weak.
4. Remove excess coffee from the edge of the portafilter and secure the portafilter holder into place
on the coffee machine.
5. Use the handle to insert the portafilter holder on the front left side of the device (8 o'clock posi-
tion).
Engage the wide recesses on the portafilter holder with the recesses on the brewer head. Turn the
handle as far as possible to the right to ensure the portafilter holder engages properly.
6. Place a cup of the desired size under the outlets for the portafilter. It is recommended that you
warm the cups before making coffee by rinsing them in hot water.
7. Press the 1 or 2-cup button -> to start the brewing process.
Note:
▪ During preparation, you can press the same button again at any time to stop the pouring process.
▪ To remove the portafilter holder, twist the handle from right to left.
▪ Risk of burns! If no coffee comes out of the machine, the portafilters are probably blocked. In this
case, do not remove the portafilter holder and wait for about a minute until the pressure in the
machine has reduced.

Making espresso with coffee pods
The device is compatible with all common coffee pods.
Note: For larger coffee pods, we recommend using the 1-cup portafilter. For espresso pods, use the
pod portafilter.
1. Insert the portafilter for coffee pods into the portafilter holder.
2. Place the pod as centrally as possible in the portafilter. Follow the instructions on the packaging of
the coffee pods for correct placement of the pod in the portafilter.
3. In order to start the brewing process, prepare the device by carrying out steps 1–2 under "Prepar-
ing espresso" and press the 1 or 2 cup button ->
Risk of burns!
Allow the device to cool down! To avoid getting splashed with hot liquid, never remove the portafilter
holder while the machine is making coffee! When it is finished, always wait a few seconds and then
release the portafilter holder.

Making cappuccino

Make espresso as described above using big enough cups.
1. Move the knob to the preheat steam symbol (G2) ->
Wait for the machine to heat up. The control light on the knob then lights up continuously in
white.
2. Fill a mug with cold milk. Fill a mug just one third full with cold milk to make sure there is enough
space for frothing the milk.
Note:
▪ A tall, narrow mug is best since the entire steam nozzle should be in the milk without touching
the bottom of the mug. When choosing the size of the milk container, keep in mind that the milk
volume will increase by two to three times.
▪ The best milk to use is semi-skimmed at fridge temperature.
3. Twist the steam nozzle so that it is not above the collection tray.
4. Hold the mug of milk directly below the steam nozzle so that the end of the nozzle is just below
the surface of the milk.
5. Adjust the milk froth knob to steam generation (G1) ->
6. Carefully move the mug up and down, making sure the end of the steam nozzle is in the milk at all
times. Do not take the steam nozzle out of the milk as it could splash.
7. Continue until you obtain the desired milk froth.
8. Adjust the knob to (G3 > ).
9. Spread the milk froth over the cup(s) of espresso.
Note:
▪ If you wish to make more than one cappuccino, first make all the espressos, then make the milk
froth.
▪ The steam output stops automatically after 60 seconds.
▪ Clean the steam nozzle immediately after use to ensure it does not get clogged up with milk
residue. See "Cleaning the steam nozzle".
