							A good espresso with a thick, even froth depends
not only on the quality, pressure and temperature of
the water and the quality of the coffee beans, but
also on the quantity of beans and how finely they are
ground.
The froth should have an even colour with dark
stripes running through it.
Grinding the coffee
To avoid damage to the machine, the slide
control for the coffee grinder setting should be
moved carefully and in small stages.
There are various ways to tell whether the coffee
grinder is set correctly:
– If espresso flows too quickly into the cup, it
means that the coffee has been ground too
coarsely and the pressure is not sufficient. The
grinder should be set on a finer setting.
– If espresso only trickles into the cup, the coffee
beans have been ground too finely and the coffee
will be bitter. The grinder should be set on a
coarser setting.
–
If the froth is evenly coloured but pale, this is also
a sign that the coffee beans have been ground
too coarsely.
–
If the froth is very dark brown on one side,
graduating almost to white on the other, it
suggests that coffee beans have been ground too
finely.

							To alter the grinder setting
^push the upper slide control to the left (for finer
grinding) or to the right (for coarser grinding).
You should be able to feel the notches clearly
when moving the slide control.
If the slide refuses to move,
^close the machine and dispense a cup of
espresso coffee.
Then try the slide control again.
Setting the quantity
Both the flavour and the froth on the coffee depend
on the quantity of ground coffee used.
6 to 9 grammes of coffee beans are used per cup,
depending on the type of coffee. The greater the
quantity, the stronger the flavour will be.
The quality of the froth is also affected by the
quantity:
– If the froth is evenly coloured but pale, it could
means that too little coffee is being used.
–
If the froth is very dark brown on one side,
graduating almost to white on the other, it could
mean that too much coffee is being used.
To alter the amount of coffee to be ground,
^
push the lower slide control to the left (to grind
less coffee) or to the right (to grind more coffee).

							N.B.: To ensure the machine functions correctly, it
is essential that you maintain and clean it as
instructed in these operating instructions and in
the video supplied with your machine using the
cleaning/descaling agents supplied by Miele.
Failure to do so can result in poor quality coffee,
bacterial contamination and in extreme cases
can lead to malfunction of the machine.
Danger - always allow the machine to cool down
before cleaning. Danger of scalding.
Do not clean the machine with a steam cleaner to
avoid the risk of damage to the machine.
Never use cleaners containing chlorides, sand,
soda or scouring agents. These would damage
the surface.
It is important to clean the machine regularly, as the
used coffee grounds will soon go mouldy.
With the exception of the brew unit and the water
container all removable accessories are dishwasher
proof. Please be aware that discolouration can
occur to plastic components if they are washed in
the dishwasher frequently. This is caused by
colourants in foods like tomato sauce. The
discolouration is no cause for concern.
Rinse button
Before switching the machine off for any length of
time, the pipework, brew unit and spouts need to be
cleaned to remove any residual coffee. Place a
suitable container under the spouts.
^
Press the rinsing and pre-warming buttone.
(The machine must be operational and heated up,
otherwise it will not react when the button is
pressed.)

Hot water will be dispensed from both spouts, to
clean the water pipes, the brew unit and the coffee
spouts. The following will appear in the display:
Water container
Empty the water container daily and fill with fresh,
cold drinking water just before use.
^Cleanthe water container by handusing a mild
solution of hot water and washing up liquid.
Make sure that there is no soiling underneath the
water container or in the area around the valve.
Otherwise the container will not sit flat and this
could result in water leaking from the machine.
^Clean the surface the water container sits on
thoroughly.
^Lubricate the seals on the water container and on
the contact in the machine with the silicone
lubricant supplied each time you descale the
machine.
Machine front
^
Clean the front of the machine with a solution of
hot water and washing up liquid. Wipe dry with a
soft cloth.
E-Cloth
A microfibre E-Cloth is available from the Miele UK
Spare Parts Department, which is suitable for
cleaning surfaces such as stainless steel, glass,
plastic and chrome without the use of chemicals.
Cleaning and care
46 
						

							Avoid the following on all types of front:
–cleaning agents containing soda, acids or
chlorides,
–abrasive cleaning agents, e.g. powder cleaners
and cream cleaners.
–abrasive sponges, e.g. pot scourers, or sponges
which have been previously used with abrasive
cleaning agents.
To prevent the risk of scratches and damage to
the surface structure of stainless steel and
aluminium fronted machines pay particular
attention to the following cleaning instructions.
Stainless steel fronted machines
The machine front and controls are susceptible to
scratches and abrasion.
Please observe the different cleaning instructions for
- stainless steel surfaces and
- stainless steel coloured controls
Stainless steel surfaces
Stainless steel surfaces can be cleaned using a
proprietary non-abrasive cleaning agent designed
specifically for use on stainless steel, or with the
Miele E-Cloth.
When descaling the machine wipe up anyspillages
of descaling agentimmediately!
To help prevent re-soiling, a proprietary
conditioning agent for stainless steel can
also be used. Apply sparingly with an
even pressure in the direction of the grain.
Cleaning and care
47 
						

							Stainless steel coloured controls
The controls may suffer discolouration or damage
if soiling is left on them for too long. Remove any
soiling straight away.
–Do not use stainless steel cleaners on the
controls.
When descaling the machine wipe up anyspillages
of descaling agentimmediately!
Aluminium fronts
Aluminium is affected by the way that light falls on it,
by the surrounding environment and by the angle
you observe it from.
Aluminium surfaces and controls may suffer
discolouration or damage if soiling is left on them
for too long. Remove any soiling straight away.
Warning: The surfaces and controls are susceptible
to scratches and abrasion.
Do not use:
–
stainless steel cleaners,
–
cleaning agents containing descaling agents,
–
dishwasher detergent.
When descaling the machine wipe up anyspillages
of descaling agentimmediately!
Interior
Clean the interior of the machine with a solution of
hot water and washing up liquid. Wipe dry with a
soft cloth.
On the inside of the front there is a funnel.
Underneath the funnel is a small sponge to catch
any drips. Rinse the sponge out as necessary.

							Drip tray
At the rear of the drip tray is a float which will
protrude from the drip tray when it is full. Remove
the tray and empty and clean it.
However, to avoid a build-up of odours, the drip tray
should be cleaned every day.
^Remove the grilles from the drip tray.
Both grilles can be washed either by hand or in
the dishwasher.
^Open the machine front.
^Carefully remove the drip tray and wash it by hand
with a solution of hot water and washing up liquid,
or in the dishwasher.
^
Dry all the pieces and replace them in reverse
order. Make sure that the float can move about
easily so that it will protrude from the drip tray
when it is full.
^
Close the front of the machine.

							Waste unit
Clean the waste unit daily to prevent coffee grounds
from turning mouldy.
There will probably also be water in the waste unit
left over from the rinsing process.
Lining the waste unit with one or two
pieces of kitchen paper towel will make it
easier to clean.
^Grasp the waste unit and pull it forwards to
remove.
Do not use force. If the waste container can only
be removed with difficulty, it is not positioned
correctly, (see Problem solving guide).
^Clean the waste unit in the dishwasher or by hand
with hot, mild soapy water and dry with a cloth.
^Push the unit back into the machine, positioning it
over the notches.
Ensure that the container is correctly in
place.
It must sit level and secure. Otherwise
the machine will not work.
