A quick switch check is all you need before getting started.

01

Hob and oven

The switches operating the hob and oven are located behind the Nespresso machine. Before cooking, check that both switches are turned on.

02

Range hood

The range hood switch is on the right-hand wall, just beneath the knife rack. We recommend using it whenever the hob is on to keep the cooking area comfortably ventilated.

Vertuo capsules are different from original Nespresso pods. You are welcome to bring additional Vertuo-compatible capsules or order your favourites before your holiday escape.

Step-by-step instructions Using the Weber kettle BBQ

01

Prepare the barbecue

Check that the ash catcher, bowl and cooking grates are clear and ready to use.
Open the bottom vents fully to allow good airflow.

02

Light the charcoal

Fill a chimney starter with charcoal briquettes.
Place crumpled newspaper or a fire starter underneath and light it.
Allow approximately 15 to 20 minutes for the coals to turn pale, white and ashy.
Carefully pour the hot coals onto the charcoal grate.

03

Set up for cooking

For direct heat, spread the coals evenly across the grate.
For indirect heat, move the coals to one side to create two separate cooking zones.
Place the cooking grate on top and preheat it for around five minutes with the lid closed.

04

Control the temperature

Leave the top and bottom vents fully open for higher heat.
Partially close the vents to gently lower the temperature.
Keep the lid closed as much as possible to maintain consistent heat.

05

Grilling

Use direct heat for searing and food that cooks quickly.
Use indirect heat for slower cooking and larger cuts.
Use a food thermometer to check that meat is safely and evenly cooked.

06

When you have finished

Close both the top and bottom vents to extinguish the charcoal.
Allow the BBQ and coals to cool completely.
Leave the cooled BBQ safely in place for our team to clean.
