Detailed Product Features:
The New Saeco Brewing System - SBS
One touch. All types of coffee....
An absolutely revolutionary innovation. SBS – Saeco Brewing System – Saeco's new
patented international exclusive, is the avant-garde technology which has
changed the world of coffee machines. This ingenious system allows you to make
an infinite variety of coffee from just one automatic machine and at the mere
twist of a knob. Whether it is an intense Italian ristretto (turn the knob to
the right) or an American-style long coffee (turn the knob to the left) SBS
satisfies all tastes giving a full flavor and a truly unique creamy finish.
Moreover the coffee dose in the extraction chamber is fully exploited, thanks to
the pressure, which remains constant throughout the extraction cycle. This way,
all of the aroma is concentrated in the cup, offering you a superb creamy finish
and a truly rich flavor.
Aqua Prima Water Filter
Softer water for a more robust coffee. With Aqua Prima the number of
flavor-altering substances found in water are reduced, and any micro-particles
and impurities are filtered. So you can enjoy the improved flavor and full aroma
of your coffee. Aqua Prima also reduces the formation of lime scale in the
machine so that it lasts even longer.
Fully Automatic Espresso & Coffee Brewing
Do you like to start your day with an espresso,
but don’t want to have to clean up the mess? Just press the button and the
Incanto will automatically grind your coffee beans, and dispense freshly brewed,
rich and flavorful coffee into your cup. This machine allows you to choose the
volume and strength of your coffee or espresso by simply pressing buttons on the
control panel. Then it cleans up and is ready for the next order in less than 30
seconds. Press the brew button once for a single espresso or coffee. Pushing the
brew button twice quickly will put a double shot of espresso or coffee in your
cup.
Utilize the enormous flexibility of the this machine’s programming options by
varying the water volume up to 7 ounces and the ability to use up to 9 grams of
ground coffee per brewing cycle. By experimenting with the water volume and
grams of ground coffee you can fine-tune your coffee and easily program these
parameters into the memory.
Hot Water Dispenser & Rapid-Steam® Technology
We’re all steamed up about Saeco's patented Rapid-Steam® system! Turn the steam
knob and have instant steam you want for cappuccinos or lattes. Other systems
can have you waiting up to 45 seconds for the steam function to be ready but not
with Rapid-Steam®; you’ll have consistent steam for repeated drinks.
The special milk frothing tip delivers perfect foam every time for lattes or
cappuccinos, even if you have never foamed milk before! The steam wand is
located on the right front of the machine and it accommodates frothing pitchers
up to 32 oz. If you need instant hot water for making tea, hot cocoa, or
Americanos, the hot water feature is available at the press of a button.
2 Pre-Set Buttons for Cup Size Selection
Getting a great cup of your favorite coffee is as
easy as one, two. Press one for a short and two for a café crème. Say the word,
“enchanting”, and by then your coffee will be ready for you.
Espresso, Café Crème or Regular Coffee
In addition to regular espresso, the Incanto you can adjust for the coarseness
of the grind, allowing you to brew a Café Creme, often referred to as Swiss
brewed coffee for the country that made it popular. For a Café Crème, (or crema
coffee) a coarser grind is needed. This coarser grind allows for more water to
pass through, resulting in a frothy layer of coffee that floats on the top: the
crema. Aromatic and rich, it is not as intense a coffee as the espresso, but
equally delicious. This feature also makes the Incanto a natural replacement for
traditional coffee makers.
Special Pre-Ground Coffee Funnel
Need a change in your coffee routine? Just pour
your chosen ground coffee into the special pre-ground coffee funnel, which
bypasses the coffee beans in the bean hopper. This feature is really practical
when there’s someone in the crowd who wants a decaffeinated espresso and there
are only espresso beans with caffeine in the machine. The ground coffee goes
into the funnel and the machine takes care of the rest. When it’s finished, it
automatically resets back to the beans held in the machine. This feature makes
the Incanto a great choice for home or office where lots of choice is desirable
as well as convenient.
Coffee Strength Selection
Some days you need just a bigger kick to your
coffee. The Incanto has a feature that will allow you to adjust the amount of
coffee to be ground for each individual cup. Adjust it from 6 grams (- sign) to
9 grams (+ sign) to change the strength of the coffee. 7 grams of ground coffee
is the usual amount for espresso, 9 grams is used for coffee.
Special Pre-infusion Brew System Cycle
Pre-infusion allows you to get maximum flavor
from the brewing process. This advanced system takes the newly ground coffee
beans from the internal coffee grinder and correctly tamps the coffee. Next
comes “pre-infusion”. The grounds are pre-soaked and then brewed before being
discarded automatically into the internal dump box. The machine then resets
itself for the next brewing cycle.
Additional Product Features, Maintenance &
Information:
Professional Quality Coffee Grinder
Proper
grinding is at the core of excellent coffee production. The SBS has a built-in,
conical type burr grinder, the same type used by the professionals. Pushing the
brew button sets the cycle in motion with the grinder measuring out the correct
amount of beans for the selection made and then grinding it to specifications.
Conical
burr grinders are made up of a cone shaped grinding wheel that turns slow enough
not to burn the coffee beans, (a problem with low cost grinders). The heavy-duty
steel of the grinding wheel promotes a life of long service and that’s strong
enough to resist damage from the little stones that sometimes slip in with the
beans. This durable construction is consistent with top quality machines and
little or no maintenance or service is needed.
Built-in 68 Ounce Water Tank
The water reservoir can easily be refilled while
it is still on the machine or by removing it with the easy-grip handle and
filling it at the kitchen tap. The reservoir is made of clear ABS plastic so
checking the water level is a breeze.
For Perfect Coffee Extraction - a Powerful Pump
Delivering a maximum pressure of 15 bars, this on
board water pump pulls the maximum flavor from the coffee beans.
Coffee Bean Storage Hopper & Internal Waste Box
Keeping 1/4 pound of beans fresh and ready for
grinding is the built in, lidded coffee bean hopper. When the coffee grounds are
spent, the machine delivers them to the internal dump box; which can hold up to
15 expended coffee portions. It’s easy to remove and clean.
Stainless Steel Heating System
One of the reasons the Incanto is great for
anything from small commercial settings to home or office use, is its durable
1200 watt stainless steel boiler. It provides for continuous use or a lot of
servings over a short time period.
Adjustable Beverage Dispensing Nozzle & Cup Stacking Surface
This nozzle moves up or down to accept cup sizes
up to 3.5” inches high and can be moved aside during the brewing process. There
is also a cup-stacking surface so you can keep your favorite espresso cups close
by.
Operational Lights and Indicators
The machine uses a system of lights and
indicators to help you monitor the brewing process and signal when the machine
needs to be re-supplied with water or coffee beans and when it needs to be
cleaned.
Swivel Base
Getting into your espresso machine for cleaning
and maintenance is important for the long life of your machine. The swivel base
makes it easy to access all sides of your machine.
Cleaning & Maintenance of Components
In order to keep the inside of your machine healthy; your machine must be
cleaned periodically. Scale buildup from naturally occurring minerals in your
water can build up on sensitive components like the inside of the boiler, which
left unchecked can cause considerable damage to the machine. By descaling your
machine every two-three months, your machine will last for many trouble-free
years. Saeco espresso machine cleaner can be purchased from us or by calling the
support number in your user guide.
The machine will tell you when it’s time to activate the self-clean system by
when the light comes on. After adding our cleaner, just press the clean button.
The machine will take it from there. Descaling and general cleaning is important
even if you have a sophisticated water filter system, and especially if you use
well water.
Used coffee grounds are collected in the internal dump box, which can hold up to
15 spent portions of coffee before it requires emptying. Wastewater left over
from the rinsing cycles is stored in a removable drip tray. When the indicator
light illuminates, simply pull out the tray, empty and reinsert in seconds. All
components such as the used grounds container, drip tray, and water tank can be
hand washed with regular soap and water.

fuss, no mess, no special plumbing for water intake or discharge and no special
electrical outlets are required. Detailed instructions on the optimum care and
