Dear Customer,

Thank you for having purchased this Krups Espresseria Automatic. We are sure you will enjoy both the quality of
the coffee it makes and how easy it is to use.
Whether you want a short, strong shot of a ristretto, a good espresso, a larger and milder lungo, or a creamy
cappuccino, your automatic coffee / espresso machine has been designed so you can enjoy the same quality at
home as at the bistro, whatever the time of day and right through the week.
Thanks to its Thermoblock System, its 15 bar pump and because it uses real coffee beans that are ground just
before the coffee is made, your Espresseria Automatic will give you a drink containing maximum aroma, with a
fine creamy golden brown top produced by the natural oils contained in coffee beans.
To obtain an espresso at just the right temperature and a nice compact creamy top, we advise you to pre-heat
your cup. After a few trial runs you will find the type of mix and roast of the coffee beans that suits your taste. The
quality of the water used is obviously another essential factor in the coffee you get.
Make sure the water is fresh from the tap (contact with the air tends to make it stale), that it is free from chlorine
odours and relatively cold.
Espresso coffee is richer in aroma than a conventional filter coffee. Despite its stronger, longer-lasting taste,
espresso in fact contains less caffeine than filter coffee.

Put it back in place by pressing firmly and close the lid again – Fig. 3.
Open the coffee bean container lid. Add the coffee beans – Fig. 4.
Close the coffee bean container lid again.

Do not fill the water tank with hot water, milk or any other liquid. If you turn on the appliance when the water tank
is not in place or not correctly filled (under the “min.’ level,), the light will come on and making an espresso or a
cup of coffee will be made impossible.

NEVER PUT GROUND COFFEE IN THE COFFEE CONTAINER.

It is recommended that you do not use oily, caramelised or flavoured coffee beans for this appliance. These kinds
of beans may damage the appliance.

Check that the coffee beans do not contain any foreign particles such as grit, as any damage caused by the
presence of foreign particles will invalidate the guarantee. Do not put water into the coffee bean container.
Remember to fit the drip tray to avoid waste water flowing onto the work surface and staining it or scalding you.
Check that your water tank is clean

The light flashes.
The cycle is finished when the light becomes constant. The appliance is now ready to use.

It is preferable to rinse the 2 circuits out at least once after the appliance has not been used for several days.
Each time you plug your appliance in, it will carry out an cycle.

Preparing the grinder

You can choose the strength of your coffee by setting the coffee bean grinding fineness. The finer the grinding
setting, the stronger and creamier the coffee should be. Set the desired fineness for grinding by turning the
‘Grinding fineness setting’ knob. Turn to the left for finer grind. Turn to the right for coarser grind.

NEVER CHANGE THE SETTING DURING GRINDING.

Never force the grinding fineness setting button.

PREPARING ESPRESSO AND LONG COFFEES

YOUR APPLIANCE IS DESIGNED TO MAKE COFFEE FROM COFFEE BEANS ONLY

When you first make coffee with the appliance or after a long period of absence or a cleaning or scale removal
procedure, a little steam and hot water will come out of the steam nozzle (priming). Splashing or scalding may
occur if the coffee outlets are set too high in relation to the size of the cups.

Note:

The amount of water needed to make an espresso is between 30 and 70 ml.

The amount of water needed to make a coffee is between 80 and 220 ml.

Production of an espresso or coffee

Plug in your appliance.

Press the button . The light will flash during the pre-heating and initialisation cycle.
The light becomes constant. Put a cup under the coffee outlets. You can lower or raise the coffee outlets to suit
the size of your cups – Fig. 7.

You can change the volume of water at any time – Fig. 9.

To stop coffee flowing into the cup, you can either again press one of the or , keys or turn the knob to the min.
position.

The ground coffee is moistened with a little hot water after the grinding stage. A few moments later, percolation as
such starts. Beyond a certain amount of coffee in the cup, we recommend – in order to obtain a stronger coffee –
to divide your preparation into two separate cycles. Example 2 x 70 ml cycles for a cup of 140 ml.

don’t remove the cups after the first cycle.

If you press the button once and the button a second time (or the other way round), the second one isn’t taken
into account

PREPARING STEAM

Steam froths up the milk to make a cappuccino or a caffe latte, for example, and also heats up liquids. As you
need a higher temperature to produce steam than to make an espresso, the appliance runs an additional pre-
heating phase for steam.

Plug in your appliance.

Press the button: the light flashes during the pre-heating of the appliance.

The light becomes constant.

BE CAREFUL. BECAUSE THE CYCLE DOES NOT STOP IMMEDIATELY

Frothing milk

We recommend that you use pasteurised or UHT milk that has been recently opened. Untreated milk does not
give the best results.

Pour the milk into your milk jug. Immerse the nozzle in the milk – Fig. 12.

Initiate the steam function as explained in the paragraph above.

Once your milk is frothy enough – Fig. 13 – again press the key to stop the cycle.
To remove any milk traces from the steam nozzle, place a container under the nozzle and restart a preparation
with steam (around 10 seconds).

The steam nozzle can be removed for more intense cleaning. Wash it out with water and a little washing up liquid
and a small non-abrasive brush. Rinse and dry it – Fig. 14. Before
putting it back, ensure that the air inlet holes are not blocked by any milk residues. If necessary, unblock them
using the needle supplied – Fig. 15.

Do not wash the steam nozzle in a dishwasher. To interrupt the steam function, simply press any button. If the
nozzle is obstructed, unblock it with the needle provided. Steam can be produced for a maximum of 2 minutes per
cycle.

After the steam function has been used, the nozzle can be hot, and we recommend that you wait for a few
moments before handling it.

Auto-cappuccino XS 6000 Set (sold separately)

This auto-cappuccino accessory enables you to make cappuccinos or lattes – Fig. 16.
Connect the different parts to each other. Ensure that you do not pierce the pipe by keeping the button in the
correct place.
