4 Preparing to make
beverages

4.1 Filling with tap water

The quality of the tap water largely deter-
mines the flavour of the coffee. Fill the
water tank only with fresh, cold tap water
that has not been carbonated. Change the
tap water daily. Please observe the maxi-
mum filling level.

4.2 Filling with coffee beans

The 2-chamber bean container allows you
to use two varieties of coffee beans. You
switch between the bean chambers with
the "Bean Select" tilt lever.
Attention! Freeze-dried and caramelised
coffee beans can clog up the grinder.
Coffee powder can also damage the
grinder.
Roasted coffee beans lose their aroma after
a few days. For this reason, do not fill too
many coffee beans into the bean chamber.

Preparing to make beverages

Caution! When you switch bean cham-
bers, a small amount of the other coffee
beans will remain in the grinder. The
next two coffee beverages will be pre-
pared still with remains of the previous
variety. Persons with caffeine intolerance
should only consume the third coffee
beverage.

4.3 Filling with coffee powder

You can also prepare your coffee bever-
ages with coffee powder.
Use the enclosed coffee spoon for dosing.
Fill a maximum of one coffee spoon full
of coffee powder into the ground coffee
chute.
Attention! Instant products can clog up
and block the brewing unit.
If no coffee beverage is prepared within
3 minutes of opening the ground coffee
chute, the appliance switches to operation
with coffee beans. The coffee powder is
then discharged into the coffee grounds
container.

4.4 Using the milk container

You can use the included milk container
or a conventional milk pack to prepare
milk froth or warm milk (depending on the
model).
Always use cold milk. Only fill as much
milk into the milk container as will be
used immediately. You can store the milk
container in the refrigerator.
