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. The sensuous enjoyment of coffee

hence expresses a personal awareness of life.

7.1 Fundamental principles

7.1.1 Order reference for fully-automatic coffee machines

The table enables you to break down the model identifier/designation and to recognise the design,

the size and the features of the appliances.

For fully-automatic coffee machines this is explained on the basis of model EKV 6600.0 M.

Model identifier Meaning Options:

EKV

EKV = Built-in

fully-automatic coffee

machine

6 Appliance width 6 = 60 cm wide

600 Fittings

The figures refer to the classification of the

coffee machine within the product line.

.0 Generation Modification options

M Design M = Metallic (stainless steel)

The appliance identifier hence means:

the EKV 6600.0 M is a fully automatic built-in coffee machine, 60 cm wide, a generation 0 appliance

in a stainless steel design.

7.1.2 General

The new Küppersbusch built-in fully automatic coffee machine makes coffee machines an integral

part of kitchens and attractive eye-catchers too. No valuable worktop space is wasted. Built-in fully-

automatic coffee machines offer more than extensive, convenient features. The elegant design is also

a real highlight. At home, in studio kitchens, in offices and in elegant business premises.

Training manual Section 7 – Page 4

Coffee machines

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. The

new EKV 6600.0M coffee machine enables you to experience the special flavour of coffee specialities

such as espresso, latte macchiato, cappuccino and lungo.

7.1.3 Structure and functioning of a fully-automatic coffee machine

Operating the built-in fully-automatic coffee machines is quite simple since they are operated from

the front. They are ready to use in no time at all – it’s all so easy. The panel opens very easily when

the bar handle is pressed. The water tank which is filled from the front, the coffee bean box and the

main switch are all located behind the panel.

All of the functions of the fully-automatic coffee machine can be set on the control panel. The

brewing unit and the adjusting knob for the grinding setting are located behind the service flap.

The height and the general depth of the coffee dispenser can be adjusted at the bottom. The

AromaControl knob is used to adjust how strong the coffee is when it is poured out. The collecting

bowl collects anything that overflows or drips and is used to deposit the cups. The jet can be used for

hot water, for steam to froth milk or for warming up beverages.

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, fully-

automatic 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. This pressure forces hot water through a sieve filled with espresso

powder. Disadvantage: the water that makes contact with the espresso power is very hot. This

releases bitter substances into the espresso, making it bitter and unenjoyable.

Portafilters /semi-automatic machines

With so-called semi-automatic machines or portafilter appliances a lot is automated, but not

everything. Espresso powder must be filled into the portafilter of the machine. Only then is the sieve

put into the machine. Water is automatically portioned with a pump at a temperature of more than

98°C, heated up and forced through the espresso powder at high pressure. Semi-automatic machines

need to be cleaned manually every time they are used, as oils contained in the espresso powder will

otherwise be deposited in the machine. They will become rancid with time and spoil the taste of

espresso.

Fully-automatic machine

Everything happens quite automatically here at the press of a button! Coffee powder is automatically

ground, apportioned and filled into the sieve (brewing chamber). The hot water is then forced

through the sieve and the coffee or espresso will be ready. The sieve will clean itself.

Pad machines

So-called pad machines are coffee machines that make coffee in cup-size portions. Coffee powder is

put into the machine as pre-filled pads. The advantage of this type of machine: no portioning is

required, since the pad that is put into the machine has already been filled with the right quantity of

powder. Disadvantage: the ground coffee in the pre-filled pads loses its aroma quickly if it is stored

for any length of time.

Training manual Section 7 – Page 8

Coffee machines

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. These roasteries

generally sell high-quality beans which are roasted gently for a long time.

7.1.8 What is the difference between coffee and espresso?

Espresso and coffee are made from the same bean but the roasting times are different. Espresso is

roasted for longer than coffee. The result: espresso is tastier and has a stronger coffee flavour with a

lower acid content. Classic espresso generally comprises a mixture of Arabica and Robusta beans.

However, what distinguishes espresso and coffee most is the way they are made. Espresso is not

made in filter paper; it is made in a metal sieve. Within 10 to 12 seconds for automatic coffee

machines and within 25 to 35 seconds for espresso machines used on a cooker hotplate, water

heated up to 95°C is forced through this sieve. This means that the espresso powder only makes brief

contact with the hot water. All of the flavouring but only a little caffeine and few bitter substances

are dissolved in the powder. This is why an espresso, which is considered to be a black, particularly

strong beverage, only has half as much caffeine as a cup of coffee.

Training manual Section 7 – Page 9

Coffee machines

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. When buying, consumers

should make sure that the espresso has a robusta bean content of at least 20%. It will then have the

typical tart flavour and a super crema. The beans can be blended in specialised retail stores according

to personal preference.

Grinding setting

Espresso powder should not be too coarsely ground. The reason: the water would not make sufficient

contact with the powder for the flavours and aromas to develop properly. Espresso beans ground at

setting one or two are ideal.

Crema

What is also important for a good espresso is the ”crema“, i.e. the foam on top of espresso. It should

be a hazelnut brown colour and as thick as possible. A spoon of sugar will stay on top of a good

crema for two to three seconds and will only then submerge.

The crema is so important because it functions like a lid to protect the espresso. Precious aromas and

flavours do not evaporate so quickly. Instead they are contained in the espresso by the crema.

Temperature

A ready-made espresso should not be served colder than 80°C, as flavours and aromas will otherwise

not be able to develop their full potential. This is why connoisseurs drink their espresso quickly in two

or three sips as soon as it is served. This is how to get the most out of an espresso.

Training manual Section 7 – Page 10

Thanks to its professional brewing unit the built-in coffee machine is able to make two cups of coffee

at once. This saves time, especially when numerous guests are being catered for.

7.1.13 Adjusting filling quantities to cup sizes

Households have different sizes of cups for coffee and for espresso. The fill-up quantity can be

adjusted quickly to the respective cup size so that a cup is filled up with just the right amount. Simply

place a coffee cup or an espresso cup under the coffee dispenser and press the button for espresso

until the right quantity is in the cup. After this, each time the “espresso“ button is pressed an

espresso cup will be filled with the same quantity, until a new setting is made. This setting can

naturally also be made for the “coffee long” and “coffee” buttons.

7.2.2 Grinding setting

Setting the grinder as you wish to enable the selected coffee beans to develop their full flavour to

perfection is child's play. The adjusting knob for the grinding setting is located on top of the brewing

unit behind the service flap. The knob can be set from fine to course in 10 stages. When the grinding

setting is adjusted no coffee beans may be present in the grinder.

Which grinding setting is best for coffee?

The quantity of coffee is important for the flavour and the aroma of coffee as well as for how the

coffee agrees with you. As a matter of principle: the stronger you like your coffee, the finer it should

be ground. Finely-ground coffee turns out stronger than when it is coarsely-ground. You must

however be careful: if the beans are ground too finely the coffee will quickly taste too strong and too

bitter. Too much flavouring and in particular too many bitter substances are released when the coffee

is brewed. On the other hand, if too little powder is used, coffee will taste weak and bland.

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.

7.3.3 Coffee bean box

The fully-automatic coffee machine has an integrated bean box. The flavour-protecting lid keeps the

supply of beans fresh for 1 – 2 days and the coffee aroma is not dissolved in the air. Only fresh beans

are a guarantee for really fresh enjoyment. This is why beans are only ground shortly before coffee is

brewed.

HINT: Whole beans or ground coffee?

You will be able to enjoy your coffee most if your coffee beans are freshly-ground shortly before you

make coffee. The reason: the aroma of coffee beans is protected as long as the beans have not been

ground, i.e. are whole. Grinding the beans releases the flavours and the aromas. If the beans are only

ground just before the coffee is to be made, no aroma will go lost! Coffee is also most aromatic

when made this way, since it is only immediately after coffee beans have been ground that they

develop their flavour best.

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. The grinder should not be set at too fine a setting, since this

will make the coffee grounds very compact and reduce the flow. If possible the grinder should not be

reset – this should only be done last of all – instead it should be left at the setting of “5” made in the

factory.

The brewing unit brings out the full aroma and is the heart of all fully-automatic coffee machines. It is

easy to remove and simple to clean (see illustration under section 7.2.2).

Training manual Section 7 – Page 22

Coffee machines

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.

Water hardness defines the lime content of water. It is indicated in degrees of German hardness

(°dH). The optimal water hardness level should be more than 7°dH to 8°dH. If the water is not hard

enough the flavouring will not have sufficient aroma carriers. The result: coffee will taste bland.

Hint: If the water is too soft, i.e. if the pH level is below 6°dH, simply mix a pinch of salt with the

coffee in the filter paper. This will release the flavour into the coffee without leaving a salty taste. If

the water is too hard, it would be advisable to use the AquaPrima water filter. This filter optimises

the pH value and the water hardness.

Using the water filter

` The machine can be used without a water filter but will then need

to be descaled more frequently. Using a water filter improves the

quality of the coffee and results in less wear and tear to the

components.

Training manual Section 7 – Page 23

Coffee machines

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.

750 portions of coffee. It is food-safe and environmentally-friendly. A filter is included with the

machine. Replacement filters can be ordered through customer service.

Filter structure

• Active carbon

• Ion exchanger

• Porous filter

•Filter

If the machine is operated with the AquaPrima water filter the “water filter – ON“ setting should be

activated in the user settings. This results in only every second cycle of the water flow-through metre

being registered as an impulse, so that the machine only needs to be descaled half as frequently. It is

important that the device does not register whether the water filter has actually been installed; it is

the user settings that are decisive. If the machine is operated without a filter it is essential for the

water filter setting to be set at “OFF”.

7.4.6 Coffee degreaser (cleaning cycle every 14 days or after 250 cups)

The machine should be cleaned every 14 days or after 250 cups of coffee have been made in order

to guarantee that it functions perfectly. 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. Put a

tablet for degreasing coffee into the top of the brewing unit (refer to section 7.4.5 for instructions on

how to remove the brewing unit) and replace the unit. Fill up the water tank and replace it too.

Place the spare vessel under the coffee dispenser and touch button ”P“. Use the ”medium cup“

button to select the cleaning cycle mode and confirm with button “P“. The procedure will commence

and the brewing unit will be cleaned.

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.

The level of water hardness will detemine how frequently the machine needs to be descaled. A test

strip has been included with the machine to test the water hardness. Hold this strip under water for

one second and take the reading after a minute. The water hardness level shown should be entered

in the user settings under “water hardness” (see 7.2.1). The automatic lime scale display will align

itself with this setting and will automatically show when it is time to descale.

Care and maintenance / Descaling

Descaling: every time the clear text display indicates “Descaling” or as required

120 l 90 l 60 l 30 l

To descale the machine firstly remove the water filter from the water tank. Fill in an antiliming agent

and dilute it with at least one litre of water. Then replace the water tank. Place a large vessel under

the nozzle and press the “descaler” button for 5 seconds.

7.5 Assembly / transport

Only move or lift up the machine as shown on the left-hand illustration. To do so, only use the

handles on the machine. The machine may not be lifted up as shown on the right-hand illustration.

Never use the top control panel as a handle. The brewing group, hot water/steam nozzle and the

drip tray may also not be used for lifting up the machine. Failure to observe this will nullify the

guarantee in the event of claims for damage.

Handling installation

The fully-automatic coffee machine was checked prior to leaving the factory and was tested with

coffee. A small amount of residual coffee may remain in the machine despite the fact that it has

been thoroughly cleaned. The machine is nevertheless absolutely brand new!

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. In France this beverage is called "café

au lait" and in Germany it is known as "Milchkaffee (milk coffee)".

Caffè lungo

During the brewing process an espresso cup is filled up right to the top to result in a caffè lungo.

Caffè macchiato

If you ”dirty“ an espresso with a small topping of milk foam, the result will be a caffè macchiato (

Ital.

macchiato = dirty

).

Cappuccino

Next to espresso itself, cappuccino is probably the most renowned type of coffee. Cappuccino

comprises an espresso, a topping of two to three centimetres of thick milk foam and a little hot milk

(approx. a one-third proportion each). Just like for espresso the rule here is: add sugar according to

taste! The temperature is also important: hot but not too hot!

Coretto

Coretto is “laced” espresso – laced with brandy, liqueur or best of all, grappa!

Doppio

Doppio is simply a double espresso, that is, double the quantity of everything: double the quantity of

water, double the amount of espresso powder and possibly double the amount of sugar too. This

should all be served in a cup – but a spoonful is also quite sufficient for “double” enjoyment!

Doppio Ristretto

When you make a doppio and reduce the water quantity for the two espressos to ristretto format,

you will have a doppio ristretto. Farewell fatigue … !

Training manual Section 7 – Page 42

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. However, it can only be

produced if the pump has a certain power output to create pressure in the machine; this is why

cheap machines are seldom able to produce crema. Espresso should have a full flavour and taste

slightly bitter and aromatic. Espresso will need to be stored at fairly cool temperatures if this is to be

achieved. Using freshly-ground beans is best of all. It is also important to portion the coffee just right

and ground espresso must be of a good quality. Enjoyment will be enhanced even more if a glass of

fresh water is served with an espresso. And a little biscuit is perfect too!

Espresso sorbetto

Espresso sorbetto is a refreshing and at the same time low-calory beverage, suitable as a dessert or

simply as an in-between! Freeze 350 ml espresso and stirr the espresso ice cubes in a mixer with

four sugar cubes and 500 ml low-fat milk. Serve well-chilled in suitable glasses.

Iced Espresso

Enjoying a glass of ice-cold espresso or cappuccino on hot summer afternoons or balmy nights is a

unique experience. Experts also cover the glass with a damp serviette before serving iced espresso.

Granita di caffè

Granita di caffè, comprising a layer of whipped cream as a base covered with frozen crushed

espresso and then topped with another layer of whipped cream. Sounds delicious – and tastes

delicious too!!!

Latte macchiato

"Latte macchiato" could mean “breakfast“ in Italian, since for Italians it is the “early morning” version

of Italian coffee enjoyment. Hot foamy milk is put into a tall glass with a little hot milk. Espresso or

ristretto is then slowly and very carefully poured on top so that the milk foam takes on a marmored

appearance (also a real pleasure to look at).

Ristretto

Ristretto is small, black, strong and effective – a concentrated espresso (two-thirds of the “normal”

quantity of water).
