Latte macchiato, cappuccino and other specialty coffees with milk

Your J8 twin prepares the following specialty coffees with milk at the touch of a button:

Cortado
Cappuccino
Café au lait
Macchiato
Flat White
Latte macchiato

Example: Latte macchiato
Precondition: Milk is connected to the professional fine foam frother.

Place a glass under the professional fine foam frother.
Tap ‘Latte macchiato’.
- The preset amounts of milk and milk foam flow into the glass.
There is a short interval while the hot milk separates from the milk foam. This allows the typical layers of a latte macchiato to form.
The preset amount of water for espresso flows into the glass.
8 minutes after preparation, the milk system is automatically rinsed. Therefore always place a receptacle under the professional professional fine foam frother after preparing milk.

To ensure that the professional fine foam frother always works properly, you must clean it daily when you have been preparing milk (see chapter 7 ‘Maintenance – Cleaning the milk system’).

Americano and lungo

For the americano and lungo, the J8 twin blends the coffee with hot water using a special preparation method. This results in a full-bodied specialty coffee which is particularly easy to digest. You can change the amount of this additional water (see chapter 4 ‘Preparation – Adjusting the product settings’).

Milk and milk foam

Your J8 twin prepares hot milk and milk foam. To do this, turn the setting wheel of the professional fine foam frother to the ‘Milk Foam’ or ‘Milk’ position.
- Info: 8 minutes after preparation, the milk system is automatically rinsed. Therefore always place a receptacle under the professional fine foam frother after preparing milk.

Espresso doppio

‘Doppio’ is Italian for ‘double’. When you select Espresso doppio, two espressi are prepared one after the other. The result is an extra full-bodied and aromatic specialty coffee.

Ground coffee

You can choose to use a second coffee variety, for example decaffeinated coffee, with the filter funnel for ground coffee.

Never add more than two level measuring spoons of ground coffee.
Use ground coffee which is not ground too finely. Very fine coffee can block up the system so that the coffee only comes out in drips.
If you did not fill the machine with a sufficient amount of ground coffee, ‘Not enough ground coffee’ is displayed and the J8 twin stops the operation.
The desired specialty coffee must be prepared within approximately one minute after filling with the ground coffee. Otherwise the J8 twin stops the operation and is once more ready for use.

Add the desired amount of ground coffee to the filler funnel (max. 2 level measuring spoons).

The amount of ground coffee determines the intensity and aroma of the beverage, so you can adjust it to your personal preferences.

Remove the filler funnel.
Close the cover.
Touch ‘Next’.
- The preset amount of water for espresso flows into the cup.
- The powder chute and cover can be removed and also cleaned, if necessary.

Hot water

The J8 twin allows you to prepare different variants of hot water:

‘Hot water’
