Types of beverage

Italian coffee. Served in a small cup, its unmistakable features are a full and intense aroma and a top layer of compact, natural “crema”. It is the result of the pressurized hot water extraction process invented by Achille Gaggia in 1938.
Espresso lungo| Coffee| 80 ml| | The long espresso is an espresso with a longer extraction time. It is more diluted, with a different aromatic intensity and a higher caffeine content. It is served in a medium-sized cup.
Coffee| Coffee| 120 ml| | Coffee is a beverage prepared with more water than espresso. It has a lighter aroma and is served in a medium-large cup.
Americano| Coffee
Water| 40 ml
110 ml| | The americano is a less intense long coffee, prepared with an espresso to which hot water is added.
Hot water| Water| 150 ml| | Hot water can be used to prepare hot teas, infusions, and instant beverages.

Note: In the original recipes the beverages are all set to an average temperature and aroma intensity.

Espresso tray
This machine was designed to guarantee flawless results, from traditional espresso to a number of different beverages. If you want to enjoy an Italian espresso with a delicious layer of its natural “crema” on top and as tradition dictates, we suggest your using of the “Espresso Tray” which is specifically designed for this purpose. This tray allows the use of traditional espresso cups, ensuring the perfect height for a compact, homogeneous “crema” and a splash-free brewing.

Lift the espresso tray off the grid of the drip tray and place it into the dedicated slot as shown in the drawing.

Coffee Brewing

Brewing coffee using coffee beans

Warning: only use coffee beans when making espresso. Do not put any pre- ground, unroasted, freeze-dried, or instant coffee in the coffee bean container, as they may damage the machine.
Tip: Preheat the cups with hot water to enjoy a warmer coffee.

1. Upon positioning the espresso tray, place a cup under the coffee dispensing spout, and raise or lower the coffee dispensing spout according to the size of the cup you are using.
   Press the HOME button to access the beverage menu.

2. Browse the various pages to find and select the desired coffee.

3. Upon selection of your desired coffee, it is possible to prepare two cups at the same time- besides AMERICANO, using the ” ” button.

4. Finally, press the START/STOP button to start brewing.
   Note: you can interrupt the brewing at any time by pressing the START/STOP button.

If you wish to customize the settings of a specific beverage, please refer to the “Beverage customization” chapter.

Brewing coffee using pre-ground coffee

Use the measuring scoop provided to insert the correct dose into the pre- ground coffee compartment.

1. Lift the lid of the pre-ground coffee compartment and add a little less than one level scoop of pre-ground coffee.
   Warning: do not insert anything other than pre-ground coffee, as it may damage the machine.

2. Place a cup under the coffee dispensing spout and select the desired beverage.

3. Press the ” ” button until ” ” is selected.

   If you wish to customize the settings of a specific beverage, please refer to the “Beverage customization” chapter.

Note: you can interrupt the brewing at any time by pressing the START/STOP  button.

How to Froth Milk

Tip: use cold milk (at a temperature of around 5 °C) with a protein content of at least 3% to ensure optimum results for the froth. You can use either whole milk or semi-skimmed milk. You can also use skimmed milk, soy milk or lactose- free milk.

A model with the classic Pinarello

1. Fill 1/3 of a jug with milk
2.  Press the HOME button to open the beverage menu.
3. Insert the classic Panarello into the milk. From the beverage selection menu, select ” STEAM ” and press the START/STOP button to start frothing.
4. Froth the milk by gently swirling the carafe and moving it up and down.
5. When the milk froth comes to the desired consistency. Press the START/STOP button to stop steam dispensing.
   Wait until dispensing stops completely before removing the carafe.

Note: After frothing milk, clean the circuit by dispensing a small quantity of hot water.

A model with the steam wand

1. Fill 1/3 of a jug with milk.

2. Place the steam nozzle just below the surface of the milk;
   if it has been inserted too deep, the milk will not be frothed;
   if it has not been inserted deep enough, big bubbles will be produced.

3. It is important to keep the nozzle not at the center but close to the edge of the jug, with an appropriate angle to produce a stronger vortex.

4. Press the HOME button to open the beverage menu. Select ” STEAM ” and press the START/STOP button to start frothing

5. To froth the milk correctly, the steam nozzle must always be in contact with the milk and not with the froth.
   Therefore, as the layer of froth increases, the jug must be slightly raised trying to keep the nozzle in contact with the milk, without touching the bottom of the jug.
   Once the desired frothing has been achieved, the steam nozzle must be pushed further to heat the milk well.

6. When the milk froth comes to the desired consistency. Press the START/STOP button to stop steam dispensing. Wait until dispensing stops completely before removing the jug.

Note: It is advisable to always keep a hand on the rounded part of the jug to feel the temperature increase of the milk.
Note: After frothing the milk, to make the froth more compact, it is advisable to lightly tap the jug on a flat surface and leave it to rest for at least 30 seconds. The milk will become more homogeneous.
Note: After frothing milk, clean the circuit by dispensing a small quantity of hot water. Be careful as hot water or steam sprays might be present.

Dispensing hot water

Warning: when the machine starts preparing hot water, the classic Pinarello or steam wand (depending on the model) spout may spray steam and hot water.
