Making drinks


Danger of burning and scalding
on the dispensing spouts.
The liquids and steam dispensed are
very hot and can cause scalding.
Keep well away from the area
underneath the spouts when hot
liquids and steam are being
dispensed.
Do not touch hot components.

Coffee

Coffee drinks in detail

You can use your coffee machine to
prepare the following coffee specialities:
- Ristretto is a strong, concentrated
espresso. It is prepared with the same
amount of coffee as for an espresso
but with much less water.
- Espresso is a strong aromatic coffee
with a thick hazelnut brown coloured
froth – known as the crema – on top.
We recommend using espresso
roasted coffee beans to make an
espresso.
- Coffee differs from espresso by the
increased amount of water and the
roast of the beans.
We recommend using coffee beans
with the appropriate roast to make the
coffee.
- Long coffee is a coffee with
considerably more water.
- Long black is made with hot water
and two shots of espresso.
- Caffè Americano consists of equal
proportions of espresso and hot
water. The espresso is made first,
then the hot water is dispensed.
- Cappuccino consists of approx. 2/3
milk froth and 1/3 espresso.

- Latte macchiato consists of 1/3 each
of hot milk, milk froth and espresso.
- Caffè latte consists of hot milk and
espresso.
- Cappuccino Italiano has the same
proportions of milk froth and espresso
as a cappuccino. The difference is that
the espresso is added first and then
the milk froth.
- Espresso macchiato is an espresso
with a small amount of milk froth on
top.
- Flat white is a special variation of the
cappuccino: a much greater amount
of espresso compared to milk froth
creates an intensive coffee aroma.
- Café au lait is a French coffee
speciality made from coffee and milk
froth. Café au lait is normally served in
a bowl.
Hot milk or milk froth can also be made
separately.

Milk and milk alternatives

Milk containing added sugar or plant-
based milk alternatives, e.g. soy
drinks, can clog up the milk tube and
the rest of the milk pipework.
Residues from unsuitable liquids may
adversely affect correct preparation.
Do not use milk with additives.
Animal milk naturally contains
bacteria.
If using animal milk, make sure that it
has been pasteurised, e.g.
pasteurised cow's milk.
After the heating-up phase, the milk will
be drawn up into the central spout
where it is heated by steam and also
frothed for drinks requiring milk froth.
