      This makes the capsule much larger and therefore they will not fit into a Nespresso machine.

      Recycling your illy iperespresso capsules

      Download prepaid shipping label here.

      Recycling your illy iperespresso capsules is completely free and very easy.

      As an ethical sustainable coffee brand, illy seeks to minimise the packaging we use to recycle our products.

      To this end, we suggest you repack used illy iperespresso capsules into their original packaging and send to the recycler via Australia Post. 

      THE ILLY CAPSULE RECYCLING PROCESS

      Step 1: Drain the used capsules in a colander or sink to minimise excess water.
      Step 2: Load used capsules into the original illy capsule tin.
      Step 3: Repack the 6 tins of used capsules into the original carton.
      Step 4: Print of the pre-paid Australia Post label here.
      Step 5: Post box via Australia Post.

      WHAT HAPPENS TO THE WASTE

      Once collected, the illy iperespresso capsules are processed to separate the coffee grounds from the plastic. The plastic is then melted down in order to be remoulded to make new recycled products, including furniture and playground equipment!

      illy Coffee

      How much illy should I use?

      For espresso, use 7 grams of illy per shot (about 1oz). For auto-drip brewed coffee, start with 7 grams of illy per 8-ounce cup.

      You may need to adjust to taste as the parameters (water turbulence and temperature) of each coffee maker differ somewhat. 

      You can take the guess-work out of espresso by using E.S.E. pre-measured, pre-tamped servings (pods).

      How much caffeine is in illy?

      illy uses only the finest Arabica beans available, and Arabica coffee is naturally lower in caffeine than the cheaper and lower quality Robusta variety. An average 1 oz.

      illy espresso will contain approximately 60 milligrams of caffeine.

      Brewed illy coffee will contain less than 15 mg caffeine for each gram of coffee used.

      Is your coffee Kosher Certified and if so, who Certifies your coffee Kosher?

      illy coffee - Yes, Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregation of America.

      36P Coffee - Yes, we have been certified by Kosher Australia.

      How is illy coffee decaffeinated?

      illy coffee is decaffeinated with the CO2 method, a process using two natural elements – water and carbon dioxide (sparkling water). This process is considered the safest method to decaffeinate coffee while maintaining its quality.

      What are MonoArabica single origin coffees ?

      illy Monoarabica single-origin Arabica beans are carefully selected from nine different countries that comprise the perfect harmony of the illy blend. Each illy Monoarabica coffee has a unique flavor and aroma that encapsulates the distinctive culture and character of a country.

      Secret of the illy blend

      Secrets of the illy blend:

      • Composed of nine distinct highest-order Arabica coffees spanning four continents, purchased directly from the growers who nurtured them.
      • Perfectly balanced, with a delightfully distinct taste and aroma.
      • Recalibrated with each harvest to consistently provide the signature illy taste, cup after cup after cup.
      • Expertly blended prior to roasting and cooling.
      • Fresh taste and aroma preserved through pressurized packaging.

      Will ESE pods work with other machines ?

      You can still use illy ESE Pods on many different brands of coffee machine. You will find a compatibility statement in your coffee machines user manual.

      Coffee care and storage

      How long will an unopened can of illy stay fresh?

      An unopened can of illy ground coffee will remain fresh for at least two years due to illy's proprietary patented pressurized system that extracts air from the can and replaces it with inert gasses at a higher-than-atmospheric level of pressure. This method guarantees a longer preservation time, maintaining flavour and aroma for over 24 months. 

      How can I determine the best before date of a can of illy?

      The best before date is marked on the bottom of the can.

      How should I store an opened can of illy?

      If the entire can will be consumed within 7 days, room temperature storage is recommended.

      If the coffee will not be consumed within 7 days, we recommend refrigerated storage, allowing the coffee to return to room temperature before use. It is important to refrigerate the can immediately after opening in this case to retain optimum flavor.

      Machines and general maintenance

      We recommend using CAPSULE COFFEE MACHINE DESCALER DOMESTIC to decalcify more or less often depending on how frequently you use your machine and the mineral composition of the water you are using. 

      Y5 Milk Frothing - cleaning for better froth

      Your machine may not be faulty, sometimes the milk solution gets unbalanced if it is not assembled correctly.  Please try the following:-

      Fill both the water tank and milk tank with fresh water and place a suitably sized container under the dispensing spout.

      Dispense at least half a tank of water by pressing the hot water button (middle right button) without inserting any capsule in the machine.

      Then press the hot foamed milk button (top right button) as if you were preparing this beverage and do this at least three times 

      The goal is to pour more water from the milk tank in order to fill the whole system in.

      The second thing might be that you milk attachment has an issue.  Please provide a copy of the receipt along with your contact details and address (if you purchased from our online store then the name or order number it was purchased under). Once we receive the information we will post out a new milk frother attachment. Just as a side note, some of the cheaper low fat or skinny milk will not froth as they have too much water content.

      Priming your X1 machine

      Turn the machine on but leave brew and steam switches on right OFF. Place a cup under 

      My steam wand is no longer working. Who can assist me in getting it fixed?

      The steam wand is a consumable and not covered under warranty. The steam wand is very sensitive, and any milk residue left after steaming milk can cause a problem if the wand isn't cleaned immediately after each use. 

      To clean a clogged wand, first try running machine cleaner through the machine and steam arm. If that doesn't do the trick, you can try soaking the wand in boiling water with a little cleaning solution dissolved in it.  You can also try using a pin to dislodge any solid milk plugs. After soaking the wand, run hot water through it if your machine has a hot water mode, otherwise run steam through it, being careful not to burn yourself.

      The STEAM WAND PANNARELLO are considered a consumable and are not covered under warranty. Please make sure that you remove the STEAM WAND PANNARELLO as per the instructions in the manual. Incorrect removal could cause the STEAM WAND PANNARELLO could cause microfractures and in turn affect the operation of steaming milk.

      Where are illy's machines made?

      Some of our home espresso machines, are made in Italy (example: the Francis Francis X1) and others are made in China (examples: Y1 and X7). In both cases, it's our intention to deliver the highest quality machines to our customers. Each machine undergoes rigorous testing to ensure it meets our exacting quality standards to produce the highest quality espresso.

      Will my Nespresso capsules fit in an illy machine ?

      illy capsules are NOT compatible with Nespresso machines and vise versa. illy iperespresso capsules contain approx. 7 grams of coffee to make the perfect espresso compared to Nespresso capsules that contain less than 5 grams.  This makes the capsule much larger and therefore they will not fit into a Nespresso machine.

      Coffee preparation

      What is the difference between medium roast and dark roast illy?

      illy medium roast coffee is a bit milder while illy dark roast has a more intense and robust coffee flavor due to a slightly longer roasting time and slightly higher roasting temperature.

      Some people find the dark roast better for coffee preparations that involve milk, such as cappuccinos and lattes.

      Both medium and dark roast are suitable for espresso and brewed coffee preparation and the choice is a matter of personal preference.

      What coffee should I use for Espresso?

      Espresso preparation requires a very evenly ground fine grind coffee almost a powder.

      We recommend our Ground Coffee for Espresso or grinding illy Whole Bean Coffee in a quality burr grinder set to fine/espresso grind.

      For more details on how to prepare a perfect espresso.

      How do I use an illy E.S.E. pod?

      Each E.S.E. serving contains 7 grams of coffee; the exact amount needed for a 1 oz. shot of espresso.  Do not re-use pods.

      Switch on the E.S.E. espresso machine and let it heat. For the best results, we suggest you warm the cups as well.

      Place the E.S.E. serving in the specially designed filter holder with the writing facing up. It is very important to handle the E.S.E. pod as little as possible and only by its edges, as the oils from your skin can compromise the quality.  It is especially important not to touch the coffee area of the pod. Place the filter holder in its housing and switch on. Allow the water to run through it for about 20 seconds.

      At the end of this step, remove the used serving, and reinsert the filter holder.

      What coffee should I use for French Press?

      For French press preparation use illy ground coffee for drip coffeemakers. The grind is courser than that used for espresso and is optimal for both drip coffeemakers and French press. 

      What coffee should I use for moka pot/Stovetop preparation?

      Moka pot stovetop coffee preparation requires a grind courser than espresso but less course than drip and French press. illy Moka grind is ground specifically to work with moka pots to yield optimal results. 

      Ristretto, normale, and lungo

      Ristretto, normale, and lungo are relative terms without exact measurements. Nevertheless, a rough guide is a brewing ratio of 1:1 for ristretto, 1:2 for normale, and 1:3–1:4 for lungo

      a ristretto is thus 30 ml/1 oz (the foamy crema slightly increases this volume), 

      normale is 60 ml/2 oz, 

      and lungo is 90–120 ml/3–4 oz. 

      By contrast, a caffè crema will be approximately 180 ml/6 oz. A caffè lungo should not be mistaken for a caffè americano (an espresso with hot water added to it) or a long black (hot water with a short black added to it, which is the inverse order to an Americano and done to preserve the crema).

      How to make a Long Black

      All of the illy iperepsresso capsules except for the lungo are designed for single espresso shots. 

      There are two ways to make s long black.

      Americano is generally made by pouring hot water over one or more shots of espresso. Long black coffee, on the other hand, is made the opposite way by pouring one of more shots of espresso over hot water.

      Long black maintains the crema a little better. The recipe will depend on the size of the cup and how strong you want the coffee. To make s lo

      ESE Pods and fyllo f8 ESE machine

      What is a ESE Espresso Pod?

      The single espresso pod standard is 44ml wide and 10ml high. The weight varies according to coffee blend, roast, grind and batch - around 7 grams.  The pods are symmetrical in shape and have a tag for easy removal from pod only/specific equipment.  For more information visit www.esesystem.com 

      I am using a non illy ESE pod and sometimes the pod falls through the fyllo f8 machine

      Although ESE is a standard, there are some differences between manufacturers of pods. To make the machine easy to use we have employed a drop pod mechanism in the fyllo f8 machine.

      Occasionally the pods may fall through. If you are using a pod from a particular manufacturer and the pods are falling through regularly then you may want t bend the pod very slightly in the middle.
