Dear customer,
Please read these operating instructions through carefully. Above all,
observe the safety instructions! Please
keep these operating instructions for
later reference, and pass them on to
any subsequent owners of the
appliance.
The form and function of your AEG
coffee machine guarantee you
• straightforward operation and
• excellent, individual taste
• with the easiest of maintenance and
care.
The excellent, individual taste is achieved by
• The pre-brewing system: prior to the
actual brewing process, the ground
coffee is moistened to extract its full
aroma,
• The individually adjustable quantity of
water per cup that can be varied between a small espresso and a large “fro-
thy“ coffee,
• The grinding texture that can be adjusted to suit the roasting of the beans,
• The facility to choose between normal
or strong coffee,
• And last but not least, through the
guaranteed crema, that small crown of
froth that makes an espresso incomparable for connoisseurs.
Incidentally: The time that the water is
in contact with the ground coffee is
considerably shorter for espressos than
for conventional filter coffee. As a
result, less bitterness is released from
the coffee, it is this that makes
espresso coffee so much pleasanter!
