We suggest a thorough clean of all the coffee baskets, to pre-
vent the holes from becoming blocked. Use dishwashing liquid
for this. As soon as the basket holes get bigger or the baskets
are squashed on the sides, we suggest exchanging them for
new ones. After the baskets have been cleaned, we also rec-
ommend cleaning the inside of the portafilter.
The
shower 15
, which sits in the
brew group 9
, is cleaned
automatically through the daily cleaning of the brew group.
To check this, let the water flow out of the brew group without
the portafilter attached. If the water flows consistently out
of the shower, it is clean. However, if the water flows out in-
constantly or splashes, even though it has been cleaned, it is
most likely broken and needs to be replaced.
The sealing gaskets hinder the splashing of water while in
use, but needs to be changed as soon as water loss on the
brew head is noticed. The loss of water reduces the amount of
pressure, which is put on the coffee basket. This reduces the
quality of the final product.
The machine is fitted with a thermostatic safeguard, which
hinders the burnout of the boiling element if the machine is in
use without any water. If the safeguard has for some reason
switched itself off, please let us, or our local service partner,
know immediately.
Upon consultation you can of course also send us your
Cremina, not only in the case of a defect, but also for its
regular check-up. To do so, please order and use a big
enough delivery box from us.
Steam.
Hot Water
You can also use the steam to boil water or make tea. To do
this, open the
brew tab 3
slightly to release condensed water
or remaining air before starting. This will also prevent any
suction of the fluid being heated up. Put the end of the
steam
nozzle 12
into the filled cup or a different container. Leave the
steam tab opened until the desired temperature is reached.
Then, close the tab again before removing the container or
cup.
Hot milk without froth
Fill the milk froth container with milk; immerse the
steam
nozzle 12
in the milk. Now turn on the steam tab and turn it
off again as soon as the desired temperature is reached.
Close the tab first before pulling away the container; other-
wise, the milk may splash out.
