FAQ

You can adjust the strength of your coffee by adjusting the grinding fineness of the coffee beans.
Varying the fineness of the grinding enables you to adapt to the different types of bean: a highly roasted and rather oily bean will require a coarse grinding while a more lightly roasted bean will be drier and will require a finer grinding. The finer the grinding, the more powerful the flavour.


Turn the setting button located in the bean container, depending on your bean type and the strength of the desired flavour. This adjustment must be performed during grinding and notch by notch. After 3 preparations you will notice a very distinct difference in taste.
The Claris cartridge must be replaced approximately every 50 litres of water or at least every 2 months.
Depending on your model, the machine may automatically prompt you to replace it.
It may be normal not to have any warning messages if your steam/hot water consumption is low.
Your espresso machine is equipped with a counter and automatically alerts you when descaling is necessary after a certain number of steam/hot water brews and according to several parameters: your consumption, the water hardness setting...
After a certain number of coffees, it is important to clean and degrease the entire coffee circuit of the machine with a cleaning tablet to preserve the taste quality of your drinks.

The machine is equipped with a cleaning programme and automatically alerts you when it is necessary, depending on several parameters: your consumption, the water hardness setting, etc.

We recommend that you clean the machine as soon as it displays the alert and that you use the tablets whose dosage has been perfectly adapted and tested by our teams to act effectively, without any risk of aggression or damage to the machine's internal components.
Your machine has a unique design using hydraulic technology to make perfect coffees.

This construction allows the coffee circuit to be rinsed under pressure and automatically drained after each cup: the guarantee of perfect hygiene.

This unique system :
  • Ensures that there is no water residue inside the machine, limiting scaling and ensuring long-lasting performance. After each use, you can see that there is residual water in the drip tray, which is linked to this automatic rinsing/draining.
  • Reduces the need for cleaning and maintenance to a minimum, giving you the pleasure of coffee without the hassle.
We recommend that you only descale your machine when it warns you to do so, to avoid damaging components that have not been scaled.

During the first few months of use, if the number of beverages made is not sufficient for descaling to be necessary, you will not be able to descale manually in advance (apart from the automatic alert).
After this number of drinks, it is possible to descale manually (depending on the model).
This can be due to a number of factors:
• There is no water in the tank; fill the tank,
• Your tank is not correctly installed; press firmly on the tank,
• The filter is blocked; the ground coffee is too fine. Clean the filter holder and try a less finely ground coffee,
• The pump is unprimed; refer to the instructions on how to prime it,
• Your appliance has scaled up; descale it,
• The Claris filter cartridge has been changed but not primed; refer to the instructions on how to prime it.
Make sure the steam nozzle is not blocked.
After turning off your appliance and letting it cool: clean and unclog all the orifices of the nozzle with needle provided.
Unclog the orifice of the steam nozzle support pipe with a needle.
Remove the Claris cartridge.
Remove the water filter if your machine uses one. If this does not solve your problem, turn the fineness of grind button to the right to obtain a coarser grind (may depend on the type of coffee used).
Run one or several rinsing cycles.
In the case of repeated uses, a few drops may issue from the steam nozzle.
  • Check that the coffee bean container has coffee in it and that it is dispensing correctly.

  • Avoid using oily, caramelised or flavoured coffee.

  • Make the drink in two cycles by using the 2 cups function.

  • Adjust the fineness of ground coffee by turning the adjustment knob located in the coffee bean container.



    According to model:
1) Check that all the elements (connector, tube, seal, etc.) are correctly in place.

2) Use semi-skimmed milk, refrigerated at 5°C.
For drinks made from plant-based milks, the result in a cup may vary depending on several factors: the brand and type of plant-based milk.

3) Your milk system may need cleaning (see FAQ "How to clean the milk system?").
Tip: To make cleaning easier, soak the elements in hot water and a little washing-up liquid for 20 minutes.

4) If the problem persists, use a new milk connector (provided depending on the model).

Tips:
After each milk recipe, perform the automatic rinse and rinse the milk connector manually.
Only change the grinder setting when it is running.
Do not use your appliance. To avoid any danger, have it replaced by an approved repair centre.
The machine is equipped with a function that automatically detects and controls the levels of coffee beans and water.

The intuitive light indicator, above the drip tray, lights up in red and a message will appear on the display asking you to fill the coffee bean container or the water tank.

After filling the tank, press "OK" to finish the beverage preparation.



After following the instructions in the user manual for starting up the appliance, make sure that your electrical socket is working by plugging another appliance. Switch off and unplug the device, wait 1 minute and restart it.
If it still does not work, do not try to dismantle or repair the appliance yourself, instead, take it to an approved repair centre.
The warning light needs to have a few coffee cycles to be operational. If you have completed the first cycles without coffee beans, you only need to put beans in the container and make 2 or 3 coffee cycles to make the function operational.
An expresso has a stronger aroma than a "normal" coffee.
In fact, an expresso can be distinguished by its rich aroma and the creamy foam on the surface of the cup.
This requires a pressure of 15 bar (achieved only by espresso machines), water heated to 90-92°C and finely ground and measured coffee (7 g per cup).
