Foreword: the X1 machine for ground coffee has been designed to provide the best coffee using Illy ground espresso coffee (fig 7).
Make sure that the machine ready light (E) comes on and switch (C) is in coffee position (up) (fig. 8).
Insert a one-cup filter (T1) or a two-cup filter (T2) in filter-holder (G) and attach the corresponding spout (U1 or U2).
Place one level measure of coffee (W) in the filter or two measures if a two-cup filter is being used. Press the coffee down with the tamper (V) (fig. 10) so that it is
level. Fit filter-holder (G) in the brewhead (H1) and turn to the right.
Flip switch (B) downwards and once you have the required amount of coffee, flip switch (B) back in up position.
When the operation has been completed, take care that there may still be some residual pressure in the filter-holder for a few seconds more.
Empty the filter-holder by turning it upside down and tapping on the rubber edge of the used coffee tray (X) (fig. 11).
To prepare other coffees, repeat the entire sequence.
Before switching off the machine or after each use, empty the filter-holder, flush it with hot water so as to remove any residue and put it back in the brewhead.
Caution: Should you forget to switch the water off, the machine will automatically switch the pump off after about two minutes and an acoustic signal will come
on every second; to reset operation, simply flip coffee switch (B) upwards.
Do not used distilled or demineralised water to prepare coffee.
Caution: If the machine has been on for several hours without preparing any coffee, and you have a problem getting it restarted (button B). Simply open
the steam knob (I) for a few seconds, after pressing the coffee button (B), and the machine will restore its normal operation.
STEAM GENERATION TO MAKE A CAPPUCCINO
To make a cappuccino, after having prepared the coffee, pour some cold milk into a metal receptacle and follow the instructions below.
Make sure that the filter-holder has no coffee in it.
Flip switch (C) to steam position; the machine ready light (E) will switch off and the thermometer temperature indicator (F) will start to go up (fig. 12).
When the machine is ready, a short acoustic sound will be given and the green light will come on again; turn the steam knob (I) anti-clockwise, allow the residual
water to flow out of the steam wand until steam is released, then close the steam knob.
Place the milk receptacle under the steam wand (J) (fig.13) and turn the steam knob (I) anti-clockwise.
The small hole (K) on the steam wand will take in the necessary amount of air to create a froth for the cappuccino; therefore make sure that it is not covered by
the milk.
Once the desired amount of froth has been achieved, close the steam valve and flip switch (C) upwards (fig.14). If froth is not hot enough, position the steam
wand lower in the milk for a few seconds. This will heat the milk quickly.
Pour the milk and froth in the cup containing the coffee (fig. 15).
Clean all milk residue (fig. 16) from the cappuccino spout (K ) avoiding direct contact with the hands at all times.
CAUTION: Contact with the wand (J) may cause serious burns.
COFFEE PREPARATION AFTER STEAM DISPENSING
It is very important to avoid making an espresso immediately after steam has been dispensed, as the machine is still too hot and this could compromise the
flavour.
Flip selector switch (C) from steam position (down) to coffee position (up); the light (E) goes off for a few minutes giving the machine a little time to cool down;
when the boiler has reached a suitable temperature, the light comes on again and coffee can be prepared once again.
If you wish to reduce the temperature of the machine quickly and obtain a perfect espresso, follow the instructions below:
1.Make sure that the empty filter-holder is inserted in the brewhead and switch (C) is in coffee position (up). (fig.14)
2.Turn on coffee switch (B), so that the water flows into a receptacle until a brief acoustic signal is given and the green light comes on again. (fig. 17)
3.The boiler has again reached a suitable temperature to prepare an espresso coffee.
The machine is fitted with a pressure regulating valve in the boiler that causes slight dripping from the filter-holder when the temperature increases (switching
on and when switching from “coffee” to “steam”).
CAUTION: If switch (C) is in steam position (down), coffee switch (B) does not work (fig. 18).
HOT WATER DISPENSING
Hot water is dispensed through the steam wand (J).
Proceed as follows:
1.Make sure that coffee switch (B) and steam switch (C) are in up position and the machine ready light (E) is on
2.Place a receptacle under the steam wand
3.Turn the steam knob (I) anti-clockwise and flip the water/coffee switch (B) downwards (fig. 19)
For correct operation and a high quality standard proper cleaning of the machine is recommended on a regular basis.
Procedures to be followed with cool and disconnected machine:
-water tank cleaning
-filter-holder cleaning; NB: cleaning and removal of any solid residue is more thorough if the filter is removed from the filter holder (fig. 21)
-brewing head (H2) cleaning; NB: clean with a damp cloth after having removed the filter-holder
-steam wand cleaning; NB: remove any milk residues on the wand, the air intake hole and the steam outlet hole thoroughly
-drip tray cleaning
-grill cleaning.
Procedures to be followed starting with the machine unplugged and cool:
To remove coffee oil residue from the brewing head that can spoil the aroma and taste of your espresso if they deposit and age, clean the machine every 30
days using a cleaning tablet to dissolve such residues. A sample of this product can be found inside the package.
Proceed as follows:
1.Remove the filter-holder handle (G) from the machine
2.Place a tablet in the filter
3.Replace the handle (G) with the tablet in the machine
4.Position a receptacle beneath the filter-holder, turn on the coffee switch (B) for 20 seconds and wait 60 seconds before turning on the coffee switch again.
During this 60-second break, turn the handle to the left and to the right and vice versa, several times to clean the seal as well
5.Repeat point 4 six times
6.Once the 6 cycles have been completed, make sure there are no tablet residues in the filter-holder
7.If there is any residue, make sure it is removed by removing the filter-holder from the machine, and washing it with hot water by turning on coffee
switch (B)
8.Turn off coffee switch (B)
9.Replace the filter-holder handle (G) in the machine
Important:
Remember to keep the steam wand clean from any milk residue both inside and outside the holes.
Clean the cappuccino maker immediately after every use by means of a sponge. The holes can be cleaned using a pin (fig. 16).
At night soak the filter-holder in a receptacle of water to keep it clean.
DESCALING
The need to remove limescale depends on the type of water used, the hours of machine operation and the number of coffees made.
Descaling is recommended every 2 months.
Do not use distilled or demineralised water to prepare coffee.
CAUTION: The use of our descaling product (fig. 22) is recommended. If limescale removal is not performed, it could cause defective operation, which is
not covered by the warranty. Vinegar, lye, salt, formic acid will damage the machine!
Descaling procedure:
Dilute the contents of a packet in 1 litre of water. Pour the solution in the water tank. Switch on the machine and flush through the equivalent of 2 to 3
cups. Wait 15 minutes and flush through 2 or 3 cups of solution at regular intervals until all water has been used. Repeat the operation until all the
solution has been used up. Then wash the tank, fill it with fresh water and flush again with clear water about ten times so that the boiler is completely
free from any residue. Caution: if descaling is not carried out regularly, it must be performed by an authorised assistance centre.
