8) = coffee filling position Please practice the operation of the lever and the carousel a few times. 6. INITIAL PREPARATION This procedure is necessary before first use and after you have cleared the machine (see CLEARING THE THER- MOCOIL, chapter 15.4). a. Plug in the machine. (The machine has an internal cord storage. Just pull out as much cord as you need. You can push the unwanted part of the cord back into the machine). b. Remove the water tank lid, lift out the water tank, and fill with cold, fresh water. Replace the water tank and make sure it sits properly in its receptacle (see fig. 8a). The water tank holds approx. 53 oz. You can also use another container and fill the water tank without removing it from the machine. c. Make sure the selector switch points to the coffee spout symbol (see fig. 12) d. Make sure the tray is inserted prop- erly (see fig. 2). e. Make sure the lever points to the front (see fig. 5) f. Close the lever as follows: First squeeze and hold the handle bar then push the lever down (see fig. 7). Now release the handle bar. g. Switch on the Main On/Off Button (see fig. 1.1; #6a). The red light within the On/Off button will illumi- nate. At the same time the yellow Thermostat Light will light up indi- cating that the machine is heating up the internal ThermoCoil unit. h. Place a cup underneath the coffee spout. i. Turn the Pump Button on (see fig. 1.1; #6b). You will hear a pump noise. Initially it will take about 30 to 40 seconds before any water will come out of the spout. As soon as some water comes out of the spout, turn the pump button off. j. Raise the lever (see fig. 7) and slowly turn the carousel counter clockwise (see fig. 6) until the coffee funnel points to the front of the machine (see fig. 8) You are now ready to prepare your fa- vorite coffee beverage. 7. HOW THE THERMOSTAT LIGHT WORKS • As long as the yellow Thermostat light (fig. 1.1; #6d) is on, the ThermoCoil inside the machine is heating up. When the selector switch is in the spout position (fig. 12) or in the hot water position (fig. 12a) the thermostat light will turn off when the maximum temperature is reached. While brewing coffee, the thermostat light might come on, indicating that the ThermoCoil is heating up again . For hottest coffee: When you turn on the pump just after the thermo- stat light turned off, you will get the highest possible coffee temperature. • When the selector switch is in the steam position (fig. 12b), the therm- ostat light will stay on, indicating that the internal temperature is now higher to transform hot water into steam. 8. WHICH COFFEE GRIND? The Capresso Ultima works with a variety of grinds. It is much less sensi- tive to the coffee grind than most other pump espresso machines. You can even grind with a regular blade grinder and still get crema espresso coffee. The coarser the coffee, the faster the water will run through, resulting in a weaker taste. The finer the coffee is ground, the slower the coffee will pump through, resulting in a stronger, hotter cup of espresso. If 5. no or hardly any coffee comes out of the spout, then your coffee is ground too fine. 9. BEVERAGES... BEVERAGES... The Capresso "Ultima" lets you pro- duce the following beverages: • Espresso (coffee spout) 1 to 1 1/2 oz. per cup; make one or two cups at a time. Some people make the espresso a bit larger. Serve with or without sugar. Use one or two scoops of coffee to your liking. Espresso is the foundation for Cappuccino, Cafe Latte and Cafe Americano. • Crema Coffee (coffee spout) 4 to 6 oz. per cup; make one or two cups at a time. Use one or two scoops of coffee to your liking. Essentially "Crema Coffee" is a longer brewed espresso with slightly more extraction. In Europe more and more people switch from drip coffee to crema coffee. • Cappuccino (coffee spout + frother in frothing position) Espresso plus hot milk plus milk froth. Normally you add two to three parts of milk and milk froth to one part of espresso. Serve with choco- late shaving, cinnamon, sugar... any- way you like it. Some people use less milk to taste more coffee. • Cafe Latte (coffee spout + frother in steaming position) Espresso plus steamed milk with no or very little milk froth. Add steamed milk ( 3 to 5 oz.) to one espresso. • Cafe Americano ("Cafe Lungo") (coffee spout + frother) Espresso plus hot water. Add 3 to 5 oz. of hot water to your espresso (use the hot water setting of the frother). The difference between Crema Coffee and Cafe Americano is the shorter extraction time for the coffee, resulting in a somewhat dif- ferent taste. • Tea (frother) Insert tea bag into a tea cup and add hot water with the frother in the hot water setting. • Hot Chocolate (frother) Instant: Pour powder into a glass and add hot water with the frother. Regular (with milk): Steam the milk with the frother, add powder and stir. 10. MAKING ESPRESSO a. Make sure the coffee funnel points to the front of the machine (fig. 8) b. Remove the funnel lid, i...
