• Espresso is not a bean! It's the way the coffee is roasted and
prepared. Typical US espresso roasts result in darker beans with
an oily surface. European espresso roasts are medium brown
with no or very little oils on the surface.

3b. DIFFERENT COFFEE DRINKS
4. PLEASE, DO...
Here are some guidelines for the most popular coffee drinks:
• Ristretto: 1/2 to 1 oz. of coffee. Sweeten to taste.
• Espresso: 1 to 2 oz. coffee. Sweeten to taste.
• Double Shot: 3 to 4 oz. of coffee. Sweeten to taste.
• Crema Coffee: 5 to 8 oz. of coffee.
• Cappuccino: 3 to 4 oz. of hot frothed milk plus espresso.
• Latte: 3 to 5 oz. steamed milk with little or no froth plus
espresso.
• Fill water tank daily with fresh, cold water.
• Before filling the bean container, remove any foreign particles
(small stones) from coffee beans.
• Let frozen beans thaw for 3 to 4 hours before pouring them
into the bean container.
Important: If you pull out the drawer (Fig. 20) at any time you
must empty the used coffee container and the drawer. If you
don't, the used coffee container will overflow inside the machine
and can cause serious damage to the internal mechanism.
• Café Mocha: Use chocolate milk then proceed as in making
cappuccino or latte.
Experiment with the size of your milk based drinks. For stronger
coffee taste add more coffee, for more milk taste add more
frothed/steamed milk.
PLEASE, DON’T... (or you void your warranty protection):
• Never pull out the drawer during the brewing process. Only
pull the drawer when the display instructs you or when the
display shows READY.
• Never fill instant coffee into the bean container or ground coffee
funnel; it will damage the brewing chamber.
• Never fill sugar coated coffee beans into the bean container.
• Never fill frozen beans into the bean container. Do not keep
beans in the freezer. Store them in a dark, airtight container.
• Never fill anything other than coffee beans into the bean
container (no chocolate, rice, nuts, spices, etc.).
3c. COFFEE FACTS
• Caffeine is tasteless. A "strong" coffee or espresso is mostly
the result of the amount of coffee in relation to the amount of
water. The longer a bean is roasted, the less caffeine it has.
The shorter the brewing time the less caffeine in your cup.
• Arabica and Robusta are two genetically different kinds of
beans. "Arabica" beans have more flavor and a little less caffeine
than "Robusta" beans which are mostly used in lower priced

• Never fill anything but fresh, cold clean water into the water
container, except when decalcifying (chapter 17.1).
• Never use mineral or carbonated water. You can use tap
water, bottled water, spring water, distilled water and reverse
osmosis water.
Temperature:
• All coffee buttons can be set to NORMAL or HIGH.
• The Hot Water function is set to HIGH.
• Steaming for frothing can be set from 3 to 120 seconds.
• Never repair or open the machine yourself. All repairs should
be performed only by an authorized service center.
• Do not place the machine on a surface which is sensitive to
hot or cold water and steam. Never place the machine on an
uneven surface.
Factory Settings for Beverage Buttons:
• All coffee buttons are set to temperature HIGH.
• Espresso button (Fig. 3.6)1.5 oz./ STRONG.
• Coffee button (Fig. 3.5) 5 oz. per cup / NORMAL.
• Cappuccino; one-touch button (Fig. 4) 14 seconds milk,

• The Coffee buttons can be programmed to brew between 0.5
and 8 oz. of coffee per cup.
Note: pushing the Espresso and Coffee buttons twice within two
seconds brews a “double” cup (up to 16 oz.).
• Water portion button (Fig. 4) 6 oz.;
Other Factory Settings:

6. PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Make sure all accessories, literature and any other items are
removed from the bean container and the water tank.
• DO NOT install the Clearyl water filter now (chapter 13a).
• Make sure the machine sits on an even, flat surface and the
drawer and used coffee container are inserted (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).
• Plug in machine.
12.

6a. FILLING THE WATER TANK
Please note: Only use fresh, cold water. Never fill water tank
with carbonated water, milk or any other liquid.
• Remove the water tank, rinse and fill with fresh, cold water.
• Replace water tank and make sure that it engages securely.
Alternatively, you can also pour the beans into an open bowl and
let them sit for about 5 hours. The oils will evaporate (this will
not change the taste of your coffee). Then fill the beans into the
bean grinder. Now beans will feed into the burrs more easily.
6c. TURNING THE MACHINE ON FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Make sure bean container and water tank are filled.
• Press the Main Power Switch in the back of the machine (Fig. 1a)
A red light in the left round button cluster illuminates (Fig. 3.4).
• Push the On/Off button (Fig . 3.1). The display shows PRESS
RINSE and the Rinse button (Fig. 3.2) illuminates.
• Place a cup underneath the Auto Cappuccino System
(Fig. 17) and push the Rinse button (Fig. 3.2). SYSTEM FILLING.
The machine dispenses a small amount of water. HEATING
then PRESS RINSE.
• Place cup underneath the dual coffee spout (Fig. 17) and press
the Rinse button (Fig. 3.2). RINSING. The machine dispenses
a small amount of water. READY.
Please note: You can only make coffee when the display reads
READY.
6b. FILLING THE BEAN CONTAINER
Please note: To ensure that the conical burr grinder continues to
function properly, please avoid using any kind of coated or
flavored beans (all coating and flavors contain sugar or sugar
substances). Such coating can damage the burrs. Using such
beans voids the warranty. Have your coffee store grind the sugar
coated beans and use as described in chapter 9d.
Flavored Coffee: If you like flavored coffees we recommend
adding flavors to your coffee after brewing. This way you can
use your regular coffee beans in the bean container. Adding the
flavors after brewing lets you control the flavor intensity much
better than with pre-flavored coffee. Your local coffee store
typically carries a variety of liquid flavors.
• Open the lid for the bean container and remove the Aroma
Protection Lid.
• Make sure the bean container is empty and clean. Fill beans
into the bean container (Fig. 5).
• Place a cup under the coffee spout and push one of the coffee
buttons. The machine will grind and brew coffee. If the display
shows FILL BEANS push one of the coffee buttons again.
• Discard the first two cups of coffee.
Frozen Beans: Thaw 3 to 4 hours before adding to bean
container. This prevents moisture from seeping into the grinder.
Oily Beans: Beans with an oily surface tend to stick together.
This may prevent a continuous flow of beans from the bean
container into the burrs. As a result the grinder does not grind
enough coffee and you might get weak or no coffee at all.
Stir the beans in the bean container just before grinding.
You are now ready to brew coffee.
7. ADJUSTING THE GRINDER
IMPORTANT: The grinde can only be adjusted while the grinder
is actually grinding.
Adjust the grinder to the roast of your coffee.
13.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
• Light roast: use a finer adjustment (smaller dots).
• Dark roast: use a coarser adjustment (larger dots).
• Open the cover of the bean container (Fig. 1.9).
• To adjust fineness, turn the grinding wheel during grinding to
the desired position (Fig. 6).
Only the Dual Coffee spouts were used: The C9 OT displays
RINSING. For a few seconds hot water will be dispensed
through the Dual Coffee Spouts. The C9 OT turns off (display
off, red light in left button cluster is on).
The Auto Cappuccino Spouts and the Dual Coffee Spouts
were used: If the “Cappuccino Rinsing” cycle was not used
(chapter 10g) the C9 OT will first prompt C CLEANING (for
"Cappuccino" Cleaning) and the Rinse button illuminates
(chapter 15.2). If the Rinse button is not pushed within the next
ten seconds, the display shows RINSING and the Dual Coffee
Spouts are rinsed. Then the display shows RINSE RIGHT and
the Rinse button illuminates.
• Push the Rinse button. The C9 OT will dispense hot water
through the coffee spout of the Cappuccino system,
CAPPUCCINO RINSING. The C9 OT turns off (display off,
red light in left button cluster is on).
ATTENTION: Oily beans tend to stick together. Stir beans just
before grinding to ensure a proper flow of beans into the burrs.
Please note: If coffee does not flow through the Dual Coffee
Spouts in a constant stream, turn the wheel to a coarser setting.
8. DAILY PREPARATION
Fill the water container every morning with fresh, cold water. This
will enhance the taste of your coffee.
• Make sure the Main Power Switch is on (Fig. 1b). In this case
the left button cluster is illuminated.
• Push the On/Off button (Fig. 3.2). The display shows HEATING.
After approx. 2 minutes the display shows PRESS RINSE and
the Rinse button illuminates.
• Push the Rinse Button (Fig. 2,E). Hot water will warm up all
internal parts and pump through the coffee spouts RINSING.
The water will be caught in the drawer underneath. The rinse
cycle stops by itself and the display reads READY. You are
now ready to make coffee.
9. COFFEE PREPARATION
9a. PRE-WARM CUPS
READY
In the morning pre-warm your cups with hot water feature. Cold
cups reduce the coffee temperature by 5ºF to 10ºF.
• Place your cup under the Auto Cappuccino system and push
the Hot Water button (Fig. 4) WATER.
• Push the Hot Water button again to stop and discard the
water READY.
8a. TURNING THE MACHINE OFF / RINSING
Always place cups under the Dual Coffee Spouts and the Auto
Cappuccino System (Fig. 17). When turning the C9 OT off, the
spouts that were used (coffee and/or milk) will be rinsed.

9b. BREWING COFFEE AND ESPRESSO
9c. OVERRIDING STRENGTH AND CUP SIZE DURING
BREWING
The coffee strengths for one-cup settings can be changed
before or during grinding.
The machine has two pre-set coffee buttons, ESPRESSO
(Fig. 3.6) and COFFEE (Fig. 3.5). Both buttons are pre-set for
coffee strength, coffee volume and temperature (chapter 5).
The coffee volume can be changed during brewing. This
feature will not change the factory setting.
Example:
Brew a 4 OZ cup of coffee, STRONG
READY
• Open the cover for the Rotary Dial and turn the Rotary Dial
(Fig. 3.8) until the display shows STRONG.
• Push the Coffee Button (Fig. 3.5).
• When the coffee starts brewing, turn Rotary Dial until the
display shows, 4.0 OZ. The C9 OT will brew 4.0 oz of coffee.
If you use the same coffee button again and do not use the
Rotary Dial, the C9 OT will brew a cup according to the
programmed settings for this button.
Brewing one cup:
• Place one cup underneath the Dual Coffee Spouts and push
the desired button. The machine will grind, tamp and then
brew the coffee. It uses a 2-step brewing process (pre-brew
phase), pauses for a few seconds, and then starts the brewing
process. The display shows the name of the button you
pushed, e.g. 1 ESPRESSO and the selected coffee strength,
e.g. STRONG. The C9 OT will stop automatically and discard
the used coffee grounds internally. When the display shows
READY, you can brew the next cup of coffee.
Brewing two cups:
• Place two cups underneath the Dual Coffee Spouts and push
the desired button twice. The display shows e.g. 2 COFFEES.
The C9 OT will brew twice the programmed amount of coffee
(e.g. 2 x 5 oz.) and then stop automatically and discard the
used coffee grounds internally. READY.
For re-programming see chapter 11 (cup sizes) and chapter
14.1 for cup sizes, temperature and strength.
9d. USING PRE-GROUND COFFEE
Please note: When brewing two cups the C9 OT will always
grind the maximum amount of coffee (setting STRONG).
You can also use pre-ground coffee, bypassing the grinder.
This is convenient if someone requests decaf coffee, decaf
cappuccino or flavored coffee.
Please note: Never fill the funnel with instant coffee. Do not fill
the funnel with more than two scoops. The funnel is not a storage
container. If coffee is ground too fine the brewing process may
be stopped.
Important: After the brewing stops, the machine will discard the
used coffee grounds. Please do not try to pull out the drawer
(Fig. 20) during this operation. It can seriously damage the
machine.There is no need to pull out the drawer until the display
shows the message EMPTY TRAY or EMPTY GROUNDS.
Please note: You can always stop the brewing process by
pressing any of the coffee buttons.

• Insert one end of the short flexible hose into the lid opening.
• Remove the red cap from the side of the frothXpress and
insert the other end of the short flexible hose (Fig. 16).
You are ready to steam/froth milk.
Storing the milk container: always remove the outside flexible
hose and unscrew the lid before storing the milk container in the
refrigerator.
10. AUTO CAPPUCCINO SYSTEM
The C9 OT features the Auto Cappuccino System with two spouts
located one in front of the other (Fig. 16) The front spout produces
steam (steam nozzle). The rear spout produces high pressure
brewed coffee. Attached to the steam nozzle is the removable
frothXpress system (Fig. 13). It siphons, steams and froths milk.
The C9 OT Cappuccino System prepares a variety of milk based
drinks without ever moving the cup: Cappuccino, Latte, Café
Mocha, Hot Milk, Hot Chocolate.
Important: The milk container is not dishwasher safe. Do not
immerse the milk container in any liquid.
Using the long flexible hose: To siphon milk directly from a milk
carton or any other container, use the long flexible hose. Insert
one of the black connecting pieces in the straight-cut end of the
hose and insert into the frothXpress. Insert the other end with
the V-cut into the container with cold milk (Fig. 19).
10b. THE FROTHXPRESS SYSTEM
This system produces unlimited volumes of hot steamed or
frothed milk right into your cup.
Important: This system siphons milk and mixes it inside the
frothXpress with hot steam. It is necessary that all parts are
connected tightly, otherwise the siphoning process will not work.
10a. PREPARING THE THERMAL MILK CONTAINER
The C9 OT comes with a 14 oz. double-walled vacuum stainless
steel container. This custom-made milk container can keep cold
milk cold for up to eight hours. There is no need to worry about
the milk getting warm during the day.

Frothing Position: The dial points to the upper part of the face
(12 to 2 o’clock), which is used for Cappuccino. In the 12
o’clock position the frothXpress creates the most milk froth.
Turning the dial towards the 2 o’clock position increases the milk
temperature (Fig. 13).
CAFÉ MOCHA: use chocolate milk or add chocolate syrup to
your cold milk and stir, then proceed as explained before.
LATTE: turn the frothXpress dial between the 4 and 6 o’clock
position and repeat above steps. Milk is steamed without froth.
Please note: You can always add an additional shot of espresso

pushing the Espresso button. You can also add additional
hot milk (chapter 10e).
Steaming Position: The dial points to the lower part of the face
(4 to 6 o’clock) which is used for Latte. Milk will be steamed, not
frothed. Turning the dial towards the 4 o’clock position increases
milk temperature.
Please note: You can always stop the beverage preparation by
pushing any of the beverage buttons.
Steam Only Position: When the dial points to the steam symbol
(3 o'clock), the siphoning is blocked. Only steam will pass
through the frothXpress.

12. WATER CARE
The C9 OT works with: • tap water • bottled water • distilled
water. We recommend using tap water or bottled water. Distilled
water has no minerals and does not improve the taste of coffee.
Water that is heated inside the machine leads to calcium deposits.
Tap water has a varying degree of water hardness (chapter 12a).
Most bottled water has a low level of water hardness.
IMPORTANT: do not use carbonated water or any other liquid in
the water tank.
You have the following options to take care of the water.
• Decalcifying System (chapter 17.1). The machine is factory
pre-set to automatically remind you to decalcify.
• Clearyl Water Filter Cartridge (chapter 13a).
11. VISUAL PROGRAMMING OF BEVERAGE PORTIONS
Chapter 14.1 explains how to re-program all parameters
(volume, strength, temperature) for all beverage buttons.
Re-programming the cup size for coffee and milk can also be
done during beverage preparation as follows. READY.
• Push and hold the beverage button you want to re-program
until display shows ENOUGH COFFEE? or ENOUGH MILK?
This way you can make sure your (cappuccino) cup is
filled with the desired volume of (milk and) coffee.

13. CLEARYL WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE
The machine comes with one Clearyl Water Filter Cartridge. The
Clearyl cartridge
• Reduces the water hardness up to 75%.
• Removes (if present) up to 85% chlorine, up to 90% lead, up
to 95% copper and up to 67% aluminum.
*INACTIVE: You can only use this setting for distilled water.
Level 5 and Level 6: If the tap water falls into these two cate-
gories, decalcifying will be frequent. In this case bottled water is
recommended. Most bottled water has a low calcium level.
Please note: If your water has a high calcium content (level 5 or 6)
and you use the Clearyl Filter Cartridge we recommend to decalcify
the machine once or twice a year (chapter 17.2).
• Cleans the water through an upward current principle (Fig. 10)
just before the brewing cycle starts, ensuring freshly filtered
water every time you make coffee.
• Lasts for 75 liters (~2,500 oz.) of water or up to two months.
• Eliminates decalcifying except when using very hard water
(25 grains or higher), see chapter 12. In this case we recom-
mended to decalcify the machine once or twice a year.
• To reorder cartridges, see chapter 20.
Please note: If you use Spring or Bottled Water with low calcium
levels you can set the hardness to 3ºdH, "extremely soft water".
12b. CHANGING THE WATER HARDNESS MONITOR

Activating:
Important: Once the filter has lost its calcium suppressing
abilities, calcium will build up inside the machine. Since the
Water Hardness Selector is off, the machine will not remind you
when to decalcify. If the filter is not replaced, the calcium
buildup will clog and damage your machine.
You must activate the cartridge for the machine to monitor it
properly. Otherwise the C9 OT assumes decalcifying mode.

18. TIPS FOR BETTER COFFEE
Height adjustable coffee-spout
Adjust the height of the coffee-spout to the size of your cups.
Grinding
Please refer to chapter 7 "Adjusting the Grinder."
Pre-warm cups
Pre-warm cups in advance with hot water (chapter 9a).
Sugar and cream
Warmth is lost by stirring the contents of the cup. Adding milk or
cream from the refrigerator lowers the temperature of the coffee.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
A. NO COFFEE COMES OUT OF THE COFFEE SPOUT
Problem: Beans in bean container are not feeding properly into
the grinder because they are stuck together.
Solution: Stir beans before grinding and while grinding turn the
grinding selector to the coarsest setting.
When using very oily beans pour the beans onto a plate and let
some of the sticky oils evaporate (this will not harm the aroma of
the coffee).
Problem You used ground coffee in the ground coffee funnel.
The ground coffee was too fine.
19. ERROR MESSAGES / TROUBLESHOOTING
ERROR MESSAGES:
The machine can display any of the following error messages:
ERROR 1, ERROR 3, ERROR 5

necting valve is free of any particles (like a coffee bean etc).
Problem The ground coffee funnel is clogged; the internal brew-
ing chamber is clogged.
Solution: Place a large cup underneath the coffee spout. Run
one or more manual hot water rinse cycles as explained in chapter
15.1. Never fill more than 2 scoops of coffee in the ground
coffee funnel; the funnel is not a storage area for ground coffee.
Also, use a ground coffee which is ground somewhat coarser.
Solution:
a. Remove frothXpress. Check that steam comes out of the
steam nozzle. Place a cup underneath the steam nozzle and
use the milk function (chapter 10e). CAUTION: hot steam is
dispensed from the steam nozzle.
If no steam is released stop the milk function and use a
needle to clear blockage inside the steam nozzle.
b. Clean all frothXpress parts and assemble properly (chapter 15.2).
c. If any parts are missing call: 1-800-220-5701.
B. THE DISPLAY READS "FILL WATER TANK" BUT THERE IS
ENOUGH WATER IN THE WATER TANK.
Problem The floatation device (Fig. 7.4) is stuck or missing.
D. GRINDER MAKES AN EXTREMELY LOUD NOISE;
NO BEANS ARE GROUND
Solution: Clean the water container and make sure the floatation Problem: A stone or object is blocking the burr grinder.
device moves freely.
Solution: Call customer service: 1-800-220-5701.
Solution: Within the water tank is a small compartment (like a
mouse trap). Inside is a small black floatation device. On top is a
small clear see-through plastic cover. This small plastic cover is
missing and the floatation device is outside of the small com-
partment. Check if you can find both pieces inside the water
tank and put it back together. If you cannot find the pieces call
1-800-220-5701. We will send the pieces FREE OF CHARGE.
E. THE REMOVABLE DRAWER CANNOT BE INSERTED (Fig. 22)
Solution: Turn off the machine and wait approximately one
minute. Insert the drawer with the tray but without the used
coffee container. Turn machine on and wait until it stops making
any noise. Now pull out the drawer and add the used coffee
container. Insert the entire assembly into the machine.
20. SUPPLIES
C. INSUFFICIENT FROTHED MILK PRODUCTION
Problem Milk is initially not cold enough or your milk is not
suited for thick frothing.
Solution: Make sure milk is cold. Use a different type of milk.
Skim milk will produce the thickest and longest lasting froth. Full
fat milk will produce less thick froth.
Problem: The components of the frothXpress are not assembled
properly, or the components are clogged with hardened milk, or
one or more of the components are missing.

good working order:
