Americano and lungo

For the americano and lungo, the W4 blends the coffee with hot water using a special preparation method. This results in a full-bodied speciality coffee which is particularly easy to digest. You can change the amount of this additional water (see chapter 4 ‘Preparation – Adjusting the product settings’).

Eau chaude / Hot Water / Heet Water

Select “Hot Water” or “Hot Water for Green Tea”. Beware of scalding.


Café moulu / Ground Coffee / Gemalen Koffie

Use the ground coffee funnel for a second variety (max. 2 scoops). Do not use very fine coffee. Prepare the coffee within a minute of adding the grounds.

How to adjust the grinder?

You can adjust the grinder to suit the degree of roast of your coffee. The consistency of grind is correct if the coffee flows regularly from the coffee spout. In addition a fine, thick crema forms.

Open the cover of the filler funnel for ground coffee.

Turn the grinder adjustment switch to the desired position.

Close the filler funnel cover. Adjusting the product settings Press a product button for about two seconds to view the list of settings:  ‘Product settings’: Specify individual settings such as coffee strength, amount of water, etc.
