7. EKV 6600.0 café profi coffee machine Whether as a café, espresso, late macchiato or simply with foamed milk – the type of coffee enjoyed is a matter of personal taste. It’s a fact that the coffee bean brew has been the national beverage of the European population since the beginning of the 19th century. Most people nowadays associate drinking coffee with experiencing a unique flavour. The aroma and the diversity of selected coffee beans will tempt you to a completely new culture of enjoyment.
Control unit and coffee dispenser The smart electronic system regulates complex brewing processes and the clear optical display guides users through all of the new coffee machine programs, hence making operating and programming the machine child's play, even for inexperienced coffee makers. The various settings, such as setting the brewing temperature, pre-brewing time, volume of coffee beans to be ground and water hardness provide the new product with all that it takes to develop individual flavours.
Overview EKV 6600.
.1.4 Available functions The control panel is used to set a number of diverse functions. User settings Clear text display Descaling Coffee big Programming, standby, user settings Steam Espresso Coffee Hot water Descaling A descaling process will be started when this button is pressed for 5 seconds (see Section 7.4.7). Programming, standby, settings Personal user settings can be seen in Section 7.2.1.
7.1.5 Steam appliances, semi-automatic, fully-automatic and pad machines Numerous different systems for “coffee and espresso machines“ are available on the market. The different methods of making coffee applied by the steam appliances and the semi-automatic, fullyautomatic and pad machines are described below. Steam appliances Water is heated up in a water tank for this standard type of espresso machine. Pressure builds up when the water begins to boil.
7.1.6 Keeping coffee hot Coffee should not be kept hot on the hotplate of coffee machines or on a warmer. The reason: the heat will cause the coffee to re-draw. This means that water will evaporate, resulting in the evaporation of the fine coffee aroma. Coffee will not only lose its flavour; it will also taste bitter very quickly. 7.1.7 Where can I get the freshest coffee? Coffee bought at the small roasteries found in almost any larger town is freshest.
7.1.9 How can I recognise a good espresso? Blend Espresso experts swear by espresso blends which not only contain expensive Arabica beans, but also comprise a 20% to 30% proportion of Robusta beans. This lends espresso a full flavour and a strong aroma. The proportion of Robusta beans is also vital for the espresso crema. The high content of ethereal oils in this bean makes the crema especially tasty and creamy.
7.1.10 Initial operation Before you enjoy your first coffee, open up the control panel with the bar handle and fill up the water tank located behind it with a max. of 1.7 litres of water. The water filter enclosed may also be used. A max. of 300 g of coffee beans must then also be filled into the bean box. Switch on the appliance at the main switch and close the control panel. The clear text display will indicate “deaerate”. The system must now be deaerated (see Section 7.1.11).
Deaerating the system ` Place a high vessel under the nozzle Training manual Coffee machines ` Touch and allow hot water to flow until you have a regular stream of water ` Touch again and stop the flow of hot water.
7.1.12 Making coffee If the machine is in the standby mode this will firstly need to be cancelled with the “P” button. Then place one or two cups under the coffee dispenser. Set how strong you want the coffee to be with the AromaControl knob. Touch either the “coffee long“, “coffee“ or the “espresso“ button. For one cup press the button once or press it twice for two cups.
7.1.14 Dispensing hot water Place a cup under the nozzle. Touch the “hot water“ button and allow the required quantity of water to be dispensed. Touch the button again to stop the flow of hot water.

7.3.2 Water tank The fully-automatic coffee machine has an integrated water tank which holds approximately 1.7 litres of water. The tank should be filled with fresh water at least once a day, since germs may developed in water which has been left standing. The water tank can easily be removed from the front when the flap panel has been opened up and it can then be filled through an opening which is covered with a spring lid.

7.3.4 Grinder In order for selected coffee beans to develop their full flavour to perfection, they must firstly be ground to just the right fineness. The excellent quality of the innovative ceramic grinder guarantees that you will be able to enjoy perfect coffee; it is also extremely quiet in operation. The top-quality grinder material has a very long useful life span and also enables coffee to be precisely dosed, ensuring that it is consistently ground.
7.3.6 AquaPrima water filter Water quality Coffee can only taste as good as the water with which it is made. A ready-made cup of coffee comprises at least 98% of water. It is mainly the pH value and the lime content that influence the taste of coffee. The optimal pH value for a good cup of coffee is in the neutral range of between 6.5 and 7.5. Coffee will taste bitter if the pH is higher. On the other hand, if it is lower coffee will take on a slightly tart taste.
Operating mode The AquaPrima water filter takes effect in a number of ways: the charcoal (activated carbon) reduces the occurrence of substances that have a detrimental effect on the smell and the taste of water. The ion exchanger resin binds heavy metals, reduces the level of limestone and removes other pollutants. A special, porous filter retains minute particles from the water. The level of water hardness is reduced by 10°dH. The AquaPrima is yielding and is sufficient for 60 litres or for approx.

A cleaning cycle that has commenced cannot be interrupted and will take approx. 7 minutes. Empty the drip tray prior to commencing with a cleaning cycle and have a spare vessel which holds at least 850 ml ready. The vessel should be observed while the cleaning process is in operation.
7.4.7 Descaling / automatic limescale indicator The machine should be descaled every time the clear text display indicates ”descale“. Never use vinegar for descaling since this may damage the machine. Commercially-available antiliming agents suitable for this type of machine are to be used. If the machine is switched off during the descaling procedure the process will be continued when it is switched on again.

7.6.3 Short lesson on coffee – coffee specialities Affogato Pour hot espresso over a scoop of vanilla ice cream. This is ideal for a dainty little dessert after a substantial dinner or as a light Italian refreshment on a hot summer afternoon or evening. Caffè latte Caffè latte is made up of two or three espressos and an espresso quantity of hot milk with which the caffè is topped. In rare cases a little milk foam will be added.
Espresso Espresso, simply called "caffè" by Italians, is the basis for all of the other Italian coffee specialities. The "black & strong" beverage fills up around two-thirds of an espresso cup, 40 ml in terms of figures. What is typical for a good espresso is the cream, which should be hazelnut brown in colour, marbled with just a touch of red on the top. The crema is the crown on an espresso.
