PRACTICAL TIPS ON MAKING A CUP OF COFFEE AND/OR CAPPUCCINO
The NUVOLA coffee machine guarantees you an excellent cup of coffee and/or cappuc-
cino thanks to the simple “pod” system it uses (these are bags of coffee that have been
ready packed and expertly weighed) and to the fact that a strong jet of steam is always
ready for preparing the cappuccino (with no wait times). Nevertheless, the user must
ensure that the steps prescribed in Point “Machine operating principles and operating
instructions” are strictly adhered to and in particular the user must ensure that the pod
is properly centred on the pod holder
sources of heat and light.
The one portion pod is sufficient for just one cup.

pensed and the steam being produced.
