Espresso coffee
Your new Krups espresso machine has been constructed to make cafe quality espresso, cappuccino and latte at
home. Espresso coffee is richer in aroma and stronger than normal coffee. It is typically served in small preheated
espresso cups. Hot water is passed through the ground coffee to obtain this delicious foamy, black coffee, with its
_um -_u - u-- d-U
revitalizing effect.
You can recognize an espresso by its characteristic aroma and its typical light brown «crema» found on top of
the coffee. But this requires high pressure and an excellent espresso coffee which has been well roasted and
cOiTectlygtound. If you cannot buy ground espresso coffee, use a coffee grinder to grind the beans. The coffee
must not be ground too fine. It must be slightly granulated. If itis too fine, you risk blocking the grid of the
brewing head and the filter.
To guarantee complete success for your espresso, you must also use freshly-drawn water (so that it has not had time
to stagnate in the air), without any chlorine odor and at a fairly coldtemperature.
Before using your machine for the first time
Click here to see steps 1-11.
Before using your appliance for the first time, clean the water heating system (without coffee in the filter holder and
filling the water container once or twice as folJows:
. Open the lid and lift out the water container using the handle (1). Fill the water container with fresh, cold water
(2).
. Replace the water container back into the appliance by positioning it firmly in the water container compartment
(3) and close the lid.
The water level in the water container can be checked at any time using the window provided for this purpose, so if
necessary you can add more water (4).
.Turn on the appliance (5). The red operating light and the orange temperature control indicator light will both
come on.
.Place one of the filter baskets in the filter hold (11). Then put the filter holder on the appliance's brewing head.
.To ensure that the filter holder is in the correct position, turn the handle so it points to the left at a 45 degree angle
(6), place the filter holder flat against the brewing head, then turn thehandle towards the right (7) as far as it can go
(8).
.Place a container, as large as possible,beneath the filter holder (9).
.As soon as the orange indicator light goes off, turn the selector to the .he setting (9) and anow an the water in
the water container to run through.

1. Espresso function
For best results, we recommend that you first pre-heat the accessories (filterholder, filter basket and cups) without
putting in ground coffee. To do this:
.Fill the water container with fresh, cold water (1) (2) (3) and turn on the appliance (5).
.Put the filter holder and an empty filter basket in place (11) (6) (7) (8), and place the espresso cups underneath.
As soon as the appliance reaches the correct temperature the orange indicator light will go out.
.Turn selector to the LP setting (9).
-
.When the cups are full of hot water, reset the selectorto the 0 setting.
After making your first espresso and the appliance is hot, the espresso cups can then be pre-heated on the cup
warming plate.
Preparing an espresso:
.Fill the water container (1) (2) (3) and turn on the appliance (5).
.Put the filter basket for one or two cups intothe filterholder (11).
.Place some ground coffee in the filterbasket, at thesame time tamping it down firmly; the coffee should reach the
lip of the filter (12) (13).
.Remove any ground coffee which is lying around the rim of the filter (4).
.Replace the filter holder into the machine. Turn the filter holder until it is firmly locked into place (15).
.Place one or two espresso cups beneath the filter holder.

.Then turn the selector tot he .!:e setting (10).
. When the cups are full, reset the selector to the 0 setting.
.Remove the filter holder with the filter basket from the machine, and remove the coffee grounds (17).
The filter basket can be refilled to make more espressos.
If you are preparing more than one cup of espresso,disregard the orange thermostat light. It simply indicates that
the thennostat is regulating the temperature.
2. Steam function For Preparing Cappuccinos and Lattes
The thumping noise which occurs while steam isbeing produced comes from the intennittent regulation of the
p'lmp and has no effect on the proper working of the appliance.
If you wish to make an espresso immediately after using the steam function, the appliance must first be
allowed to cool down in order to achieve the correct temperature for preparing an espresso.
.To do this, place a container below the filter holder (without coffee) and position correctly, then turn the selector
to the .besetting (10).
.AlIow the water to follow through until the orange indicator light comes on. Then turn the selector to 0 the
setting.
After this, you can make another espresso.

.Frothing Milk
The Perfect Froth attachment makes it easy to produce frothy, steamy milk for making a cappuccino or latte.
.Mount the Perfect Froth attachment to the end of the steam nozzle (18).
.Fill the water container with fresh, cold water (1) (2) (3) and turn on the appliance (5).
. Move the steam nozzle to the exterior of the appliance.
.Take a stainless steel frothing pitcher and filI it 1/3 to 1/2full with fresh,cold milk. The milk and frothing pitcher
must be well chiIled (so itis not advisable to run the frothing pitcher under hot water before frothing the milk). We
recommend using skim or 2% milk ifyou prefer a stiff, dense froth. Use regular milk if you prefer a more creamy
type of froth.
.Turn the selector to the .nro setting (19).
Once the appliance reaches the right temperature, the orange temperature control light will go out.
. Hold the frothing pitcher under the steam nozzle equipped with the Perfect Froth attachment in such a way that
the tip is immersed in the milk.
.Turn the selector to the \!!!I setting (20). Keep the pitcher straight during this operation. Do not allow the tip of
the nozzle to touch the bottom because this could obstruct the passage of the steam.
Note: Do not bring mi1kto a boil (this wilIhappen if large bubbles start forming at the surface of the mi1k).
.Once the froth has been produced, turn the selector to the f\Jijsetting (19) for the folIowing cleaning operation in
order to prevent the milk from drying on the steam nozzle:

Cleaning the Machine
.Never wash your espresso machine accessories in the dishwasher.
After use, the water container must be emptied.
.Removable drip tray
After using the appliance, remove the overflow grid and empty the removable drip tray (21) (22). If several
espressos are being prepared one after the other, the drip tray should be emptied from time to time (about once
every 7 -8 espressos). If necessary, clean the drip tray and its grid (21) (22) with water and a little non-abrasive
dishwashing liquid, rinse and dry. When reassembling the machine, ensure that the plastic baffle lining is in the
right place (23).
. The brewing head, the filter basket and the filter holder
These must be cleaned after each use. Allyou need to do is wipe a damp cloth over thebrewing had of your
appliance and to wash the other accessories in water and a little nonabrasive dishwashing liquid, rinse and dry.
If the brewing head is heavily clogged up, unscrew the strainer using a coin, clean it and refit it, pressing down
firmly (24).
When your espresso machine is not being used, do not leave the filter holder on the appliance to prevent wear on the
gasket.
.The cup warming plate: remove this to clean it with water and a little non-abrasive dishwashing liquid, rinse and
dry (25).
. Steam nozzle: wipe with a damp cloth after each use.
Important:
Clean the steam nozzle each time you have immersed it in milk, otherwise the inside of the nozzle becomes clogged
with milk particles. Allow the steam to escape into a wet cloth for one or two seconds after frothing milk. This will
flush out any milk residue.
.Perfect Froth attachment: For more through cleaning of the Perfect Froth attachment, you can be dismantle it.
.Remove parts A and C from the metal tube B (27).
.Clean all three parts with hot water. Ifneed be, unclog the opening of part A using a fine needle. Be careful not
to enlarge the opening.
.Be careful with the little plastic nozzle cap (part A) when you replace the Perfect Froth attachment.
.Jfthe steam nozzle becomes clogged for any reason, use a paperclip to clear out any milk residue from the steam
nozzle (26).
. Percolation head gasket
From time to time this gasket must be cleaned:
.Put the filter basket in the filter holder and place the filter holder in the machine.
.Place a container under the filter holder.
.Turn on the appliance.
.Turn the selector to the setting .!:B.
.When the hot water starts to filter through, turn the filter holder slowly from left to right so that the water filters
through between the gasket and the filter.
Descaling
.Descaling of your espresso machine should be done fairly frequently with citric or tartaric acid.
However, we would advise you to use the Krups descaling solution which is available from Krups, Descaling
depends on the hardness of the water, but also on the frequency ofuse. Then follow the following method:
.Unscrew the strainer from the head of the appliance and clean it.
.Dissolve 2 teaspoons of the descaling product or a packet of KRUPS descaling solution, in 17 ounces of
lukewarm water and pour the whole batch intothe empty water container.
.Place a container under the brewing head. Run through about 1/3of the liquid
immediately, setting the selector to the LP position (9). Then turn machine back to the 0 position.
-
.Wait for 10 - 15 minutes to allow the descaler to take effect.
.Again, start the machine .h!? and allowthe rest of the liquid to run through. Turn back to 0 position.
.Refill tank with fresh water and turn to the J:!? position. Turn back to 0 position. Repeat with fresh water one
more time.
.Replace the strainer on the head of the appliance (see section on For more thorough cleaning of the Perfect Froth
attachment, please refer to the section on « Cleaning the Machine ».
