Congratulations on purchasing your Espresso Automatic Series EA88. This appliance allows you to prepare a wide variety of drinks, including espresso, coffees, ristretto, or milk-based beverages, like cappuccino, whenever you want. It is designed to allow you to enjoy restaurant quality coffee at home, whatever the time of day or day of the week. You will appreciate both the quality of the coffee produced as well as the ease of use.
Here are some recommendations to make the most of your appliance and produce quality coffees: The quality of the water has a huge impact on the quality of the aromas. Limescale and chlorine can alter the taste of your coffee. We recommend that you use the Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge, or slightly mineralized water to preserve all the aromas of your coffee. To prepare ristretto, espresso and coffee recipes, we recommend that you use preheated tulip shaped porcelain cups.

The frequency at which this program needs to be run depends on the quality of the water used and whether the Claris Aqua Filter System filter is used or not (the more limescale in the water, the more descaling is required).
