Portion size You can adjust the amount of water for all coffee drinks, hot water, and types of tea. The strength of the coffee is determined by the ratio between the amount of ground coffee and water. If the coffee is brewed with more water but with the same amount of ground coffee, the coffee will taste milder and thinner. If you reduce the amount of water, you will get a stronger and more powerful coffee. If you significantly increase or decrease the portion size of a drink and therefore the amount of water for a coffee, you should adjust the amount of ground coffee accordingly. For coffee drinks with milk you can also set the amount of milk or milk froth to suit your personal taste. You can also set the portion sizes for hot milk and milk froth. The drink will now be made. Save will appear in the display as soon as the minimum dispensing amount is reached.  When the cup is filled to the level you want, tap Save. If the maximum amount is reached, preparation stops and the maximum possible amount is saved. If you want to change the portion size for coffee drinks made with milk or hot water, the ingredients which make up the drink will be saved one after the other while the drink is being made. The programmed mix of ingredients and the portion size will now be dispensed every time that particular drink is selected. The changed portion size is always saved in the current profile. The name of the current profile is shown in the top left of the display. If the water container becomes empty while making a drink, the coffee machine will stop programming the portion size. The portion size will not be saved. The drinks menu is displayed.  Place the desired cup under the main dispenser.  Tap the drink you want and keep your finger on it until the context menu opens.  Tap Portion size. 46
