About espresso coffee
Sunbeam’s extensive experience in designing
quality, long-lasting appliances has enabled
us to develop a range of pump espresso
machines that are as beautiful as they are
functional. As well as incorporating the
learnings from commercial machines to
ensure café quality coffee, ease-of-use was
an important dynamic in the design of the
Sunbeam Intuitive Digital.
What makes a good coffee?
Sunbeam has consulted with experienced
coffee makers and appreciators of coffee
through every stage of design, to ensure the
machine delivers a great espresso coffee
every time. There are many factors that
contribute to the perfect coffee. The words’
‘taste’ and ‘aroma’ are consistently used
when describing the perfect cup.
The Sunbeam Intuitive Digital is automatic,
completely removing any guesswork from
making espresso coffee. At the push of a
button the machine will grind the coffee
beans, place the correct dose of coffee grinds
into the filter, tamp it and pump the precise
amount of water needed to produce a shot of
espresso. As a result, each time you make an
espresso with the Sunbeam Intuitive Digital
you are assured a consistent taste every time.
As coffee continues to be an integral element
of Australian culture, the demand for the
perfect cup is ever increasing. A growing
favourite for coffee lovers in Australia, at
any time of the day is the Caffe Latte. To
accommodate these style of drinks, the
height of the espresso pour spouts are
adjustable. Ideal for all styles of cups – bring
the spouts down for espresso cups and for
those that prefer a Caffe Latte or a Long
Black raise the pour spouts for taller cups.
The sweet aroma and taste of the perfect
espresso coffee is largely due to the
correct combination of temperature and
pressure during the brewing process. The
‘thermoblock’ heating system ensures the
water is at the correct temperature, so that
the full coffee flavour is extracted. Secondly,
the Italian made 15 BAR pump ensures
the correct pressure at which the liquid
espresso is released from the pour spouts.
The pour should be steady and consist of
both liquid and cream. This cream is known
as the ‘crema’. The perfect ‘crema’ should
be a golden colour and be thick and stable,
preserving the coffee flavour, aroma and
temperature.
We hope you have many enjoyable coffee
experiences with the Sunbeam Intuitive
Digital.
Should you need any further assistance,
please don’t hesitate to contact the Sunbeam
coffee hotline on free call 1800 025 059.
Drinking authentic café quality coffee at
home is guaranteed with a Sunbeam espresso
machine. The simple to use design of the
machine allows you to enjoy the sweet aroma
and taste of the perfect shot of espresso with
its signature golden crema every time.

Secrets to the perfect cup
With a Sunbeam pump espresso machine
and a little experience, you can create
café quality coffee at home. As there are a
number of possibilities for making coffee to
meet your personal taste, following are a few
helpful suggestions:
• Always use the freshest beans or ground
coffee available and store in an airtight
container in a cool, dry, dark place.
• Whole coffee beans stay fresh longer than
pre-ground coffee.
• Pre-warm cups prior to making an
espresso, either by filling with hot water or
placing on the warming plate.
• The origin of the bean and roasting will
affect the taste of the espresso, so test
different brands of coffee to find the one
that you like best.
• Always use cold milk and a clean stainless
steel jug when texturing/frothing milk.
• The grind of the coffee is critical. Vary the
degree of grinding to find the right fineness
for the coffee beans being used.
• Don’t boil the milk when steaming. The
ideal temperature is when the jug becomes
too hot to touch.
• A regular shot of espresso, the base of all
café coffees is approximately 30mLs. The
shot of espresso is a concentrate; vary the
quantity of milk to determine the strength
and volume of the coffee. If you are using
a large coffee cup or mug you may require
a double shot of espresso, rather than just
a single shot depending on your taste.
• Once prepared, serve coffee immediately.
• Keep the espresso machine clean.
Familiarise yourself with the ‘Care and
Cleaning’ section of this book.

Milk frothing
The steam can be used for texturing/
frothing milk or for heating liquids. As the
temperature for generating steam must be
higher than for making coffee, the espresso
machine is equipped with an additional
steam mode.
Figure 26
Important: There is risk of scalding when
the steam nozzle is in use. Hot water or
hot steam can cause scalding. Only use the
steam nozzle when it is immersed in the
milk.
• When wanting to froth milk, press the
steam pre-selection button on the control
panel, see figure 26. The
steam pre-

The espresso machine is now ready for
texturing/frothing milk.
Figure 28
Note: If the steam function is not used for
more than 1 minute, the espresso machine
automatically switches back to coffee making
mode.
• Pour cold milk into a stainless steel jug to
no more than ¹/ full.
³
Tip: For best results we recommend using
refrigerated milk and a stainless steel jug
that is well chilled. Be sure not to rinse the
jug with warm water before use.

Milk frothing (continued)
• Swing the steam nozzle out to the side of
the machine and hold the jug under the
steam nozzle so that the nozzle opening is
completely immersed in the milk. Turn the
‘steam/hot water’ switch up to activate the
steam and commence frothing the milk.
See figure 27.
• Exit the steam mode by pressing the
steam pre-selection button, the indicator
light will turn off and the appliance is now
ready again for making coffee.
See figure 26.
Tip: After steaming and the steam mode has
been deselected on the control panel, turn
the ‘steam/hot water’ switch up and allow hot
water to run out for a couple of seconds.
LCD: Indicates <<STEAM>>.
Tip: For instructions on how to froth milk
refer to the section ‘Easy steps for frothing
milk’.
LCD: Indicates <<HOT WATER>>.
This will help the temperature of the espresso
machine return to coffee making temperature
and also prevent milk remains from drying
inside the steam nozzle and therefore blocking
the nozzle. Be sure to place a cup of some
kind under the steam nozzle when doing this.
Note: The nozzle must not touch the bottom
of the jug to ensure that the steam release is
not obstructed.
• To stop the frothing process, turn the
‘steam/hot water’ switch down into the
off
position and then remove the jug.
•
See figure 28.
Important: There is risk of scalding by
splashing hot milk. Switch the steam off
before you remove the jug with the frothed
milk.

Easy steps for frothing milk
Milk texturing is the steaming of milk to heat
it and to create froth. Similar to making an
espresso, perfecting the art of milk texturing
takes time and practice.
Frothing with the frothing attachment
If you are just learning to texture/froth
milk you may find it initially easier using
the frothing attachment packed with the
Sunbeam Intuitive Digital. Once you have
had some practice in texturing/frothing
milk, we recommend not to use the frothing
attachment as you will have greater control of
the texture and temperature of the milk.
• Use fresh, cold milk and fill a stainless
steel frothing jug to no more than ¹/ full.
³
• The amount of milk you steam should be
adequate for the coffees you are preparing.
Keep in mind that the volume of milk will
increase or ‘stretch’ during the texturing
process.
• Attach the frothing attachment to the
steam arm.
• Once you have activated the steam and
inserted the steam nozzle into the jug,
position the steam arm 1½ cm from the
side of the jug with the tip of the nozzle
just below the surface of the milk. The
jug needs to be at a slight angle with the
steam arm resting on the spout of the jug.
This will create a whirlwind motion in the
milk.
• Once you have activated the steam,
insert the steam arm with the frothing
attachment into the jug. Position the
steam arm 1½ cm from the side of the jug
with the frothing attachment completely
immersed in the milk, so the tip of the
frothing attachment is held just above the
base of the jug.
• Hold the frothing attachment in this
position until the milk has stretched to
double its original volume. Cease steaming
when the frothing jug becomes too hot to
hold your hand against it.
Note: You should hear a hissing sound. If you
are creating large bubbles, raise the jug so
that the nozzle tip is lowered deeper into the
milk.
• As the steam heats the milk, the milk will
begin to rise. Follow the level of the milk
by lowering the jug, always keeping the tip
of the steam nozzle just below the surface.
Important cleaning instructions for the steam
nozzle
The steam nozzle needs to be cleaned each
time you steam milk. To clean the steam
nozzle, wipe with a damp cloth.
Note: Should the steam nozzle become
blocked, using a pin or a thin wire, insert it
into the hole in the base of the steam nozzle.
Note: When using the frothing attachment,
after use remove from the steam arm and
clean with hot soapy water to prevent the
build up of dried milk.
• Once the milk has stretched to double its
original volume, lower the steam nozzle
further into the milk and continue to heat
the milk. This will give the milk a fine
texture and not a mass of large aerated
bubbles.
• Cease steaming when the frothing jug
becomes too hot to hold your hand against
it.
• With the frothing jug in hand, swirl and tap
the jug until the milk becomes shiny and
no bubbles remain, this ensures an even
consistency. Pour the textured milk into
your espresso as soon as possible.

Care and cleaning
Note: When the espresso machine is turned
on it will go through an Auto Clean cycle. This
removes any old coffee grinds from the coffee
brewing unit.
• Remove the coffee bean hopper from time to
time, dispose of the coffee residue and give
it a wipe to remove the film of oil from the
coffee beans.
The coffee making process involves extracting
oils out of coffee grinds to make espresso
coffee. Deposits of these oils build up over
time and affect the taste of the coffee and
operation of the espresso machine.
Regular cleaning of the Sunbeam Intuitive
Digital guarantees a constant coffee quality
and a trouble-free operation.
• The steam nozzle and frothing attachment
need to be cleaned after each frothing
process. To clean the steam nozzle, simply
wipe clean with a damp cloth. When using
the frothing attachment, after each use
remove it from the steam nozzle and clean
thoroughly in warm water to remove milk
remains. Additionally, should the air inlet
at the base of the steam nozzle become
blocked, open it using a pin or a thin piece
of wire.
Regular cleaning
Important: Switch the espresso machine off
before cleaning. Let the espresso machine
cool down. Do not use scratching, scouring or
corrosive agents. Clean the housing inside and
outside with a damp cloth only.
Cleaning the height-adjustable espresso pour spouts
• If the height-adjustable espresso pour spouts
becomes stiff, remove the coffee waste
container, open the service cover and remove
it. Slide the height-adjustable espresso pour
spouts right down, and off the bottom. To do
this, gently raise the inside catch. Use warm
water to clean any coffee residues from both
parts. Reassemble the two parts. To do this,
gently pull up the catch. Check the ease of
movement of the height-adjustable espresso
pour spouts. Refit the service cover and push
the coffee waste container back in place.
Important: Never put the espresso machine
or parts of the espresso machine into the
dishwasher.
Important: Never pour water into the coffee
bean hopper as you will damage the grinding
mechanism.
Important: To prevent damage to the espresso
machine do not use alkaline cleaning agents
when cleaning, use a soft cloth and a mild
detergent.
• Remove the water reservoir daily and empty
any remaining water. Rinse out the water
reservoir with fresh water. Use fresh water
every day.
Emptying the coffee waste container
At regular intervals, after every 16 coffee
brews, the coffee waste container indicator on
the control panel signals that the container
has to be emptied and cleaned. The display
shows <<EMPTY WASTE CONTAINER>>.
• Empty the coffee waste container daily,
see section “Emptying the coffee waste
container”.
When the espresso machine is in daily use,
empty the container daily. As a reminder
the display shows <<EMPTY WASTE
CONTAINER>> every time you switch the
espresso machine off.
• Regularly drain the drip tray. This can be
done at any time, but must be done when
the red drip tray float appears through the
opening in the cup resting grid.
Note: Always empty the coffee waste container
with the espresso machine switched on,
otherwise the espresso machine does not
register that the container has been emptied.
• Regularly (at least once a week) clean the
water reservoir, drip tray, cup resting grid
and coffee wasted container with warm
soapy water.
