The coffee strength can be set to three levels according to taste. As
soon as the machine is operational, the display will show either its last
preset or the factory setting.
MILD - the display features one bean, about seven grams of ground
coffee, e.g. for latte or cappuccino;
STANDARD - the display features two beans, about nine grams of
ground coffee, e.g. for a long coffee;
STRONG - the display features three beans, about 11 grams of
ground coffee, e.g. for espresso or strong coffee.
Change the setting by repeatedly pressing the strength/volume
selector (Fig. 1/B). The strength changes from mild (one bean
in display), to standard (two beans in display), to strong (three
beans in display) and back to mild.
By turning the strength/volume selector (Fig. 1/B), you can smoothly
