Dear Customer, 

Thank you for purchasing your KRUPS espresso machine with bean grinder. Designed 
and manufactured in France to give you "cafe” quality drinks with the greatest ease, your 
KRUPS machine makes Espresso, Ristretto, and Lungo, and you can also manually make 
milk froth to create other milk-based drinks: Cappuccino, Latte Macchiato, Café Latte, etc. 
KRUPS has developed intuitive warning lights to make life easier. They will guide you in the 
use of your machine and brighten up your coffee breaks.
Your KRUPS espresso machine is equipped with advanced technologies and an intuitive 
touchscreen interface; in order to obtain the best extraction possible with total ease, to 
reveal maximum aromas and flavours from the freshly ground coffee.
Because not all coffees are the same, you can customise your drinks: 

– By changing the coffee beans (different origins or roasts), you can discover different 

flavours. You will probably need to taste several different types to find the coffee 
beans that suit your tastes. 

– By varying the grinding fineness you can obtain coffee that is more or less full-bodied. 

– By choosing your shot length and coffee strength, you’ll always achieve the perfect 

cup. 

We wish you a great coffee experience and hope that you are completely satisfied with your 
KRUPS machine.

Advice and Tips 

– The quality of the water strongly influences the quality of the flavours. Limescale and 

chlorine can alter the taste of coffee. We recommend that you use the Claris Aqua 
Filter System cartridge, or bottled water with a dry residue content lower than 800 
mg/L (look at the label on the bottle), in order to preserve the flavours of your coffee. 

– When preparing drinks we recommend using preheated cups (by passing them under 

hot water), their size adapted to your desired quantity. 

– The roasted coffee beans can lose their flavour if they are not protected. We advise 

you to use the amount of beans equivalent to your consumption over the coming 2-3 
days and to choose 250 g bags. 

– The quality of the coffee beans is variable and tastes are subjective. Arabica will give 

you delicate, floral flavours, unlike Robusta, which is higher in caffeine, more bitter 
and full-bodied. It is common to mix the two types of coffee to get a more balanced 
coffee. Please do not hesitate to seek advice from your roaster. 

– We do not recommend the use of oily and caramelised beans as these can damage 

the machine. 

– The fineness of the ground beans influences the strength of the flavours and the 

quality of the crema. The more finely ground the beans, the smoother the crema. 
Grinding can also be adapted for the desired drink.
