Genuine Espresso  
Before First Use  
Espresso is a far richer and stronger brew than  
regular coffee. It should be deep, dark, and  
delicious. Most people find that they enjoy it  
in small quantities because of its richness, and  
for that reason, espresso is usually served in  
small (2-2 1/2 oz) demi-cups.  
Please familiarize yourself with all parts of  
your Krups espresso machine prior to use.  
Insert the filter basket into the filter holder, fit  
the filter holder into the filter rings, remove  
and replace the boiler cap. Check the different  
positions of the switch. To remove any  
residuals of production which may rest in the  
appliance, run the machine through one or  
two cycles with water only. Wash all loose  
parts in warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly  
and dry.  
Your appliance when properly used, will  
produce espresso that is deep, dark and  
delicious. Just follow the instructions and use  
fresh, well-roasted, pre-ground espresso.  
Preparing espresso or cappuccino is different  
from brewing regular drip coffee. One main  
difference is that the water will come to a boil  
and will then be forced through the ground  
coffee. This means that an espresso machine  
Read all instructions, cautions, notes and  
attentions before actually using the  
machine.

works under pressure and needs special  
attention.  
3.  
The Grind  
Use the proper grind finesse and grind just  
prior to brewing. The variation in the grind  
depends on the type of filter you use. We  
prefer paper filters because they allow you to  
use a finer grind, thus allowing a full extrac-  
tion and more contact time with the water.  
Permanent filters require a slightly coarser  
grind therefore the extraction rate is reduced.  
A general rule of thumb for grinding is the  
longer the brew process the coarser the grind.  
CAUTION-HOT  
Do not touch boiler cap (e1) during  
operation. Before removing boiler cap  
turn off machine, let it cool dow n for at  
least 2 or 3 minutes. Relieve pressure. See  
CAUTION-PRESSURE.  
Making the Perfect Cup of  
Coffee  
4.  
The Proportion  
We recommend that you use 1 rounded Tbsp.  
of ground coffee per cup and modify the  
quantity to suit your taste.  
Making the perfect cup of coffee is something  
different for everyone. It is an art and a  
science, that is not only effected by the coffee  
that is used, but also the equipment. The  
water, the water temperature, the time the  
water is in contact with the coffee, the grind,  
the type of filter, all play an important role in  
determining the flavor. Fine tuning these  
aspects is the art of making the ultimate cup  
of coffee.  
COFFEE  
Special features  
The following features are available only on  
the XP 1530.  
The four main principles :  
Programming Clock and coffee strengh  
1.  
The Water  
Your XP 1530 Krups appliance is equipped  
with electronic controls providing comfort and  
range of setting with 3 push buttons (1).  
It is important to use fresh water. Since coffee  
is 98% water, any residual flavors will come  
through in the coffee. The Duo Filter (not  
delivered with this appliance, yet available as  
an accessory) System can remove chlorine  
taste, but the better the water you start with  
the better the flavor of the coffee.  
- clock setting mode for day time and coffee  
cycle automatic start (C1)  
- hours and automatic start mode selection  
(C2)  
- minutes and coffee strength selection (C3)  
- display for feedback to user (C4)  
2.  
The Coffee  
- clock setting for day time is adjustable once  
the appliance is plugged with display  
blinking.  
Choose premium fresh whole beans suited to  
your taste. There are two principale species of  
coffee: Arabica and Robusta. Arabica beans  
are the choice beans with more flavor and less  
caffeine. Robusta beans have more caffeine  
and are more « robust » and are usually used  
in blends. The origin of the beans and the  
roast will determine the flavor. Roasts vary  
from light to very dark. Light roasts have a  
smooth, delicate aromatic taste, medium to  
medium dark roasts are slightly stronger, with  
a full-bodied balanced taste, and dark roasts  
are bold with smoky undertones.  
Press the (C1) button to enter clock setting  
mode. Then press (C2) to adjust hours and  
validate with (C1) button. Press (C3) to adjust  
minutes and validate with (C1) buttons.  
Setting can be done either with impulse or  
continuous actuation of hours and minutes  
buttons.  
Once day time is set, you are invited to set the  
automatic start time, with display blinking and  
clock icon in display.

operations, or choose to do the setting later by  
pushing the clock mode button (C1) twice.  
The «Pause and Serve» mechanism is  
opened as long as the glass carafe is inserted  
into the machine and sits properly on the  
warming plate and the swivel filter is closed  
properly. When brewing coffee make sure  
the glass carafe is in place (see «Pause and  
Serve» section).  
To activate the automatic coffee start at preset  
time, simply activate the automatic mode  
button (C2). To shut off appliance that started  
in automatic mode, press the button (C2).  
Coffee Strength  
Place your appliance near an electrical outlet  
and release enough cord so that you can plug  
in the machine (2).  
Your XP1530 KRUPS appliance is equipped  
with Coffee strength mode button.  
You can choose to brew an extra strong cup of  
coffee by activating the strong coffee mode  
(C3). A coffee cup icon is displayed on top left  
of the display (10).  
Putting in the ground coffee  
1.Swing out the filter holder (3) and insert a  
paper filter in the filter basket. We  
recommend using KRUPS size 4. When  
inserting a paper filter make sure the seam is  
pointing toward the base of the filter holder  
(4).  
To come back to regular coffee just press again  
the strong coffee mode button (C3).  
This is normally used only with a small quantity  
of water (max 4 cups).  
Use your hands to conform the filter to the  
contours of the filter basket. This will enable  
you to achieve better results.  
Automatic stop  
Your XP1530 KRUPS appliance is equipped  
with automatic shut off.  
2.Put ground coffee into the filter basket (5).  
We suggest using one level KRUPS  
measuring spoon of ground coffee for each  
cup of robust brewed coffee. You can adjust  
the quantity to suit your own taste.  
2 hours after switching ON drip coffee  
function, the appliance will switch OFF  
automatically. In that case you need to turn  
the selector knob (S) in OFF middle position  
before making a new coffee cycle.  
We do not recommend using coffee that is  
ground to a powder-like consistency, as this  
will prevent water from passing through the  
filter.  
You can also turn the selector off as soon as  
the coffee is ready.  
3.Close the filter and make sure that it is  
completely closed (6).  
Preparing Coffee  
We recommend rinsing the coffee machine by  
running one or two cycles with water only,  
without ground coffee in the filter basket.  
ATTENTION :  
Make sure that the filter paper does not fold  
over when closing the swivel filter, otherwise  
the water might run between the filter paper  
and the filter holder producing a very weak  
cup of coffee.  
Be sure that the water chamber is empty.  
Remove any literature, etc if found in the  
water chamber.  
The lid of the glass carafe must be properly  
positioned during the brewing process.  
Filling the Water Chamber  
To open the lid press the flap on top of  
handle.  
1.Open the hinged lid (7). Pour in the desired  
quantity of water (8) and close the lid. The  
amount of freshly brewed coffee delivered  
after the brewing process will always be  
slightly less than the amount put into the  
water chamber. This is due to the minimal  
absorption of the water by the ground  
coffee. The water levels on drip carafe and  
appliance do take this absorption in account  
for more convenience.  
Make sure that the swivel filter is closed  
properly during the brewing process. Push  
in firmly until the handle touches the side  
of the coffee maker and filter «clicks» into  
place.  
Caution : If the sw ivel filter is not  
closed in properly the «Pause and

the warming plate.  
the upper level of your dishwasher away  
from the heating and drying element for  
safe effective cleaning.  
3.Turn « ON » your appliance in drip coffee  
mode using the selector knob (S). The  
indicator light will illuminate indicating that  
the brewing process has begun (9).  
Never use scouring agents.  
Never immerse the appliance itself in water.  
To clean, simply wipe off with a soft, damp  
cloth.  
4.As long as the blue indicator light is  
illuminated the coffee will be kept warm.  
Never use a cloth to clean inside of the  
water chamber, as this might leave residual  
deposits in the chamber. Just rinse with cold  
water periodically.  
Pause and Serve Feature  
The Pause and Serve feature automatically  
stops the flow of brewed coffee through the  
filter cone if the glass carafe is removed from  
the warming plate during the brewing cycle.  
You have about 20 seconds between the  
removal of the carafe and it being reinserted  
back onto the warming plate.  
Decalcifying the  
coffeemaker  
The w arranty does not cover faulty or  
broken machines that are not properly  
descaled.  
The Pause and Serve device closes off the filter  
cone so effectively that there is virtually no  
coffee dripping onto the warming plate. Once  
the carafe is replaced, the brewing process  
and the flow of coffee into the carafe will  
resume.  
The coffeemaker must be decalcified regularly.  
The frequency depends on the hardness of  
your water and how often you use the  
coffeemaker.  
Recognizable indications that descaling is  
necessary are :  
- increase noise during boiling,  
- longer preparation time.  
CAUTION  
If significant amounts of coffee drip onto the  
warming plate afer the carafe has been  
removed, please check the seal in the filter  
holder to ensure it is placed properly. If a  
requirement seal is needed, please contact  
one of our main service centers or our main  
parts center.  
If usage is frequent, descaling should be  
carried out as follows :  
- with soft water once a year,  
- with medium hard water every quarter year,  
- with hard water once a month.  
If the filter is overfilled with coffee grounds, it  
could cause the water that jets into the filter  
cone to overflow between the filter and the  
sides of the filter cone. Be sure to use the  
proper amount of ground coffee.  
In doubt regarding the water hardness in your  
area, you may call your local water  
department.  
As descaling agent we recommend the use of  
reference solution N°F054 from Satisfusion 1  
Service at 888-344-0727.  
If this blockage and subsequent dripping does  
occur, put the glass carafe immediately back  
onto the warming plate, and allow the full  
brewing cycle to run its course. Do not swing  
out the swivel filter until the brewing process  
is completed.  
Dissolve a packet of Krups descaling solution  
in 1/2 quart water and pour into the water  
container. Run this through 2 or 3 times as if  
making coffee, but using no ground coffee.  
The hot descaling solution must be allowed to  
cool down before being poured into the  
water container. Finally do the same twice  
using clear water.  
Cleaning the coffeemaker  
Always unplug this appliance before  
cleaning. Clean the filter basket, carafe, and  
lid in a solution of warm water and mild  
liquid soap. These parts can also be placed in

The glass carafe has markings for 2 and 4  
cups.  
ESPRESSO  
To froth milk for Cappuccino preparation, add  
the quantity of water corresponding to the  
steam level marking on the carafe.  
Making espresso  
Maximum capacity to the bottom of the metal  
band around the glass carafe = 4 cups of  
espresso, plus steam for frothing milk for  
cappuccino.  
1.Place your appliance near an electrical outlet  
and release enough cord so that you can  
plug in the machine (2).  
2.Place the filter basket (e8) into the filter  
holder (e9) and rotate basket inside filter  
holder to secure it (11).  
CAUTION  
Never fill the carafe above the bottom of  
the metal band!  
3.Fill with ground espresso. The filter basket is  
marked on the inside for 2 and 4 cups. Pack  
the coffee lightly and clear any excess coffee  
from the rim of the filter holder. This will  
assure proper fit to the brewing head  
(12).  
NOTE  
It is very important to fill only the amount of  
water you need into the boiler. Your appliance  
will always need to process all the w ater  
until the boiler is empty.  
7.Close the boiler cap securely by turning it  
clockwise (17).  
ATTENTION !  
Do not pack coffee too tightly.  
8.Place carafe under the filter holder and  
make sure the slot on carafe lid is right  
below the filter holder output (18).  
Do not fill more coffee than indicated by  
the four-cup marking into the filter  
basket. This might cause clogging or  
overflow.  
ATTENTION :  
Make sure the overflow grid (e7) is in  
place.  
4.To insert the filter holder, place the filter  
handles to the left, raise the filter holder up  
into brewing head and turn the filter holder  
to the right, until it can go no further.  
9. Make sure the side knob (e2) is set on cup  
Espresso position. Then turn the selector  
knob (S) to the left in Espresso ON position.  
The left indicator will light ON blue (19).  
If the filter holders handle does not point  
toward you in lock position, do not operate  
the machine. Rather, remove the filter holder  
and reinsert it as described above (13).  
It will take approximately 2 minutes for the  
water to be heated. The water will then be  
forced through the ground coffee into the  
glass carafe.  
By follow ing this procedure this w ill  
prevent the filter holder from being  
dislodged as pressure builds up during  
the brew ing process.  
10. Wait until all the water in the boiler has  
been used. Switch off the machine by  
turning the selector knob (S) in middle  
position.  
5.Open the hinged lid and unscrew the boiler  
cap by turning it counterclockwise  
(14+15).  
11. Do not unscrew the boiler cap w hile  
the machine is in operation. Wait until  
brew ing cycle is completed and all  
w ater and steam have been used (see  
CAUTION-PRESSURE).  
6.Fill the boiler container with cold water  
using the marking indicated on the glass  
carafe (16).

Cappuccino  
d) If you prefer «stiff» froth, let the frothed  
milk stand for a minute.  
Cappuccino reportedly takes its name from  
the chocolate hues of the robes worn by the  
Capuchin monks who favored this delicious  
dessert coffee. Cappuccino is traditionnally  
made up of 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk  
and 1/3 froth and can be tailored to ones  
own taste with cinnamon, sugar, chocolate  
flakes or even liquor. Its versatility makes  
cappuccino a world wide gourmet choice.  
ATTENTION :  
Clogged steam nozzle  
Milk residuals will build up in the tip of the  
steam nozzle after frothing milk. To avoid  
clogging, remove the plastic housing of the  
cappuccino nozzle (22) once appliance is cold,  
for easy cleaning. Then follow «cleaning the  
steam nozzle» as described in the section  
«Cleaning the cappuccino nozzle».  
Making Cappuccino  
Dont forget to replace the tip of the nozzle  
and screw on tightly (23).  
If the Cappuccino nozzle is not attached,  
attach it now (20).  
1.Pour 4 to 6 oz of fresh, cold milk into a  
small pitcher. Do not use a pitcher cleaned  
with hot water and still warm. The pitcher  
should fit underneath the cappuccino  
nozzle. We recommend using 2% or skim  
for a stiff, dense froth. Use regular whole  
milk if you prefer a creamy froth.  
Steaming w ithout making  
Espresso (Steamplug)  
CAUTION  
Make sure your appliance is cool and all  
pressure has been released (see CAUTION-  
PRESSURE).  
2.Follow the directions from step 1 to 12 in  
section « Making Espresso ».  
1.Fill the boiler container with cold water.  
3.As soon as the first few drops of coffee are  
forced through the filter holder you can start  
frothing the milk.  
CAUTION  
For steam only, do not fill the glass carafe  
above the 2-cups marking. This amount  
w ill alw ays provide enough steam for  
frothing.  
Place the tip of the steam nozzle half way  
into the pitcher of milk.  
4 a) Turn the steam release knob (e2)  
counterclockwise to release steam(21).  
b) Keep pitcher slightly tilted so that you  
can always see the position of the nozzle  
as you froth the milk.  
2.Have your pitcher with milk ready to heat.  
3.Place glass carafe, with lid under filter  
holder (18). Make sure the side knob (e2) is  
set on cup Espresso position. Then turn the  
selector knob (S) to the left in Espresso ON  
position. The left indicator will light ON blue  
(19).  
Always ensure some clearance between  
the cappuccino nozzle end and  
bottom wall of the pitcher, to allow  
steam exhaust.  
In just a few seconds, your milk will  
begin to froth. As the froth rises, keep  
lowering the pitcher so that the tip of  
the steam nozzle is always just slightly

to come out of the steam nozzle. Proceed  
with steps 4.a) and 4.b) in the section  
« Making Cappuccino ».  
If clogging does occur, remove the plastic  
housing of the cappuccino nozzle (22) once  
appliance is cold and then unscrew the tip of  
the steam nozzle (23).  
5.When all steam is released, close the steam  
release knob and turn off the machine.  
Remove all milk particles using a sewing  
needle and rinse under the faucet. Replace  
nozzle tip making sure to screw it on tightly.  
Wipe off the outside of the nozzle with a wet  
cloth. Hold the wet cloth very close to the tip  
of the nozzle and open the steam valve. Let  
the steam escape into the wet cloth for one or  
two seconds, then close the valve. Any milk  
residue will then be flushed out. The plastic  
housing of the cappuccino nozzle should be  
rinsed in warm water. If the small suction  
openings are clogged up, it can be opened  
with a small needle.  
Caution :  
If you do not need all the water for  
steaming, proceed as follows:  
a) turn off the machine.  
b) release the remaining steam pressure into  
another container.  
Do not close the steam release knob  
before all steam is released or machine  
has been turned «off»! (See section –  
CAUTION - PRESSURE)  
ATTENTION !  
Cleaning the drip tray  
The plastic housing of the cappuccino nozzle  
(e4) has 2 fine holes on sides which draw air  
into the milk.  
The overflow grid and the cavity under he  
grid can be cleaned by removing the grid  
(24).  
If those holes get clogged, the milk will not be  
frothed properly. Therefore, do not dip the  
cappuccino nozzle in milk or froth up to those  
holes.  
CAUTION  
Do not try to open or disassemble the  
main body of the machine.  
Cleaning the espresso and  
cappuccino side  
Decalcifying the  
espresso side  
Before cleaning, turn «off» the machine,  
unplug it, and allow it to cool down.  
The w arranty does not cover faulty or  
broken espresso machine due to not  
being descaled.  
The filter holder, filter basket, carafe, carafe lid  
and overflow lid must not be cleaned in dish  
washer. Only use hot water and gentle soap.  
Never use abrasive materials.  
• Due to the acid substance, we recommend  
protecting your worktop and sink unit  
during the descaling process, especially if it  
is made of marble or stone. Isolate your  
espresso with a tea towel, a tablecloth or a  
tray.  
The machine can be wiped clean by using a  
damp cloth. Never immerse the body of your  
«appliance» in water or any other liquid.  
Clean the brewing head with a damp cloth  
and remove ground coffee. If there is water  
left in the boiler chamber, let the machine  
cool down, remove all those parts and empty  
through the top opening by turning upside  
down.  
The espresso machine must be decalcified  
regularly. The frequency depends on the  
hardness of your water and how often you  
use the espresso machine.  
Before descaling, the brewing sieve on the  
brewing head must first be screwed off.  
Cleaning the Cappuccino nozzle  
1.Remove all lime and coffee residues from  
the brewing sieve and the brewing head.  
Clean the steam nozzle each time after you  
have immersed it in the milk, otherwise the  
inside of the nozzle becomes clogged and the  
milk deposits on the outside harden and  
become difficult to remove.  
2.Remove the plastic housing of the cappuc-  
cino nozzle (22).  
As descaling agent we recommend the use of  
reference solution N°F054 from Satisfusion 1  
Service at 888-344-0727.

3.Dissolve a packet of Krups descaling  
solution in 10 oz / 300 ml of lukewarm  
water and pour into the boiler container. Put  
one receptacle under the brewing head and  
another under the steam nozzle.  
Problem :  
3. Steam does not come out of steam nozzle.  
Cause :  
No water or not enough water in the boiler  
chamber.  
(Note : Do not use the filter holder during  
decalcification.)  
Steam nozzle is clogged (see «Cleaning  
the cappuccino nozzle » section).  
4.Open the steam valve and turn on the  
appliance. Allow the descaling solution to  
run out of the espresso outlet and the steam  
nozzle.

the pitcher.  
Steam nozzle is clogged : tiny holes on top  
of plastic housing of the cappuccino nozzle  
are clogged (see «cleaning the cappuccino  
nozzle»)  
6.Repeat this operation once again.  
Following this, allow 2 boiler container of  
clear water to run through the system. Switch  
off the appliance. Allow the appliance to cool  
down. Insert the brewing sieve into the  
brewing head again and push the plastic  
housing of the cappuccino nozzle onto the  
steam nozzle.  
Milk is not fat enough or too warm (more  
than 8°C).  
For best results .....  
....Always use fresh, cold water (warm water  
might be stale and have mineral deposits  
which would impair the flavor of the coffee)  
Troubleshooting  
... We recommend that you grind your own  
beans. Freshly ground beans deliver more  
aroma and flavor. Use one KRUPS measuring  
scoop of beans per cup.  
(Alw ays check if the appliance is plugged  
in and is in the proper (on) position).  
....Serve coffee immediately after brewing.  
....Never reheat coffee.

the filter holder.  
Problem :  
2. Espresso does not come out.
