Water:

• Open the cover on the left side of the machine and remove the Water

Reservoir.

• Rinse and ll the Water Reservoir with cold water up to the maximum

mark and click into place on the machine.

Caution: only fill the Water Reservoir with cold, clear water! Never use
carbonated water or other liquids!

Note: The machine will not function if the water level is too low. The
display will indicate “Fill up water”.

Beans:

• Open the cover on the right-hand side of the machine. Remove the Bean

Container lid and ll with untreated, roasted coee beans. Close the lid
and the cover.

Caution: Do not use beans treated with supplements, such as sugar,
either during or after roasting. Supplements can damage the grinding
mechanism.

Note: The machine automatically detects when the bean level is low
and will not function. The display will indicate “Fill up beans”.

2. Set up

2.3 Adding water and beans

2.4 The Cappuccinotori (Milk Frother)

The SPRADA One Touch is supplied with an insulated Milk Cooler Thermos
which attaches directly to the machine to make delicious milky coffee and
hot milk drinks.

Connect one end of the pipe to the top of the Milk Cooler Thermos. Make
sure it is pushed down firmly into the grommet on the removable lid of the
container.

Connect the other end of the pipe to the grommet on the right-hand side
of the Height Adjustable Spout.

Unscrew the top of the Milk Cooler Thermos and make sure that the steel
pipe is firmly inserted in the grommet from the inside. This ensures that
milk is sucked up right to the bottom of the container.

Fill the Thermos with cold milk.

Screw the lid back on the Milk Cooler Thermos and make sure the pipe is
not stretched tight as this might impede the flow of milk. The milk in the
container should remain cold for some hours because of the high quality
insulation.
