CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE CUP

With 15 bars of pressure, the Espresso Maker allows for a wide variety of coffee drinks from a tiny espresso to a large latte. See the graph below to choose the right size cup.Be aware that the actual amount will vary depending on such variables as the coffee grind and froth amount. Note that you can flip the metal coaster over the drip trayover to change the height of the cup under the brew head.

DRINK

SHOTS

VOLUME (APPROX.)

Espresso Single 1.75 oz
Espresso Double 3.25 oz
Cappuccino Single 3.5 oz
Cappuccino Double 6.25 oz
Latte Single 5.75 oz
Latte Double 10 oz

CHOOSE THE RIGHT THE COFFEE AND GRINDFor best results, use freshly ground espresso beans as pre-ground beans lose their flavor fast. The grind should be fine, like table salt. If the grind is too fine (it will feel powderywhen rubbed between fingers), the water will not flow through even under pressure. If the grind is too coarse, the water will flow through too fast, resulting in a weak flavor. Finding your preferred grind may take some practice.HOW TO FILL THE WATER RESERVOIRTo fill the reservoir with water, you may either use a jar to fill it while on the unit or remove it from the unit and to fill it up at the sink. Open the lid and fill the reservoir with the desired amount of cold water between the “Min” and “Max” markings on the tank. Never use warm or hot water to fill the water reservoir. Close the water reservoir lid and place it back in the unit, if necessary, ensuring it fits tightly in place.

HOW TO FILL THE MILK RESERVOIRIf you plan to prepare a cappuccino or latte, you will need to fill the milk reservoir; it can be left empty or even off the unit for espresso.To remove the milk reservoir from the unit, tilt it up before pulling it out. Fill it with cold milk to between the “Min” and “Max” markings on the tank. To put the milk reservoir back on the unit, tilt it down before sliding it firmly back into place.

NOTE: You can use any type of milk—whole, skim, soy, oat— to make froth.

HOW TO CHOOSE AND INSERT THE PORTAFILER BASKETTo insert the basket into the portafilter, simply drop the basket into it.Use the smaller basket for a single shot of espresso.Use the larger basket for either when making a larger size drink or to have a double dose of espresso in a smaller size drink or.HOW TO PACK THE PORTAFILTER WITH COFFEE

  1. Use the coffee measuring spoon to fill the basket with finely ground espresso beans (do not overfill).
  2. Using the tamper end of the measuring spoon, press on the grinds firmly and evenly.Be sure the surface is smooth and flat.
  3. Clean any excess grinds from the rim of the portafilter to ensure proper fit in the brew head.

HOW TO PLACE THE PORTAFILTER ON THE BREW HEAD

  1. Position the portafilter underneath the brew head with its handle facing to the left.
  2. Insert the portafilter up into the brew head, lining up the handle with the open lock icon on the unit.
  3. Slowly turn the handle to the right until resistance is felt and the handle is aligned with the locked icon on the unit; the handle will be at an approximate 90° angle to themachine.

CAUTION: To avoid possible burns to body parts and/or another injury from hot steam and water or damages to the unit, never remove the water reservoir or the portafilter while your espresso/cappuccino maker is brewing coffee or frothing. If you intend to make a second cup of coffee, be sure the unit is in standby mode—all buttons will be lit and solid— before removing or inserting portafilter. If you need to add more water or milk to the reservoirs, switch off the unit by pressing the button on the side of the unit.

HOW TO MAKE AN ESPRESSO

Espresso is a unique method of coffee brewing in which hot water is forced through finely-ground coffee beans for a richer and more full-bodied brew than regular drip. Because of its strength, espresso is usually served in small (1 ½ to 2 oz) portions in demitasse cups.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

HOW TO CLEAN THE PORTAFILTER AND BREW HEADNOTE: This method of cleaning is useful if you make espresso only. If you make a cappuccino or latte or use the milk frothing tube separately, you can clean both the brew head, portafilter, and frothing tube all at the same time following the directions starting at the bottom of p. 18.

  1. Before cleaning, turn off the unit and unplug it. Some of the metal parts might still be hot. Do not touch them with your hands until they have cooled.
  2. If not already out, remove the portafilter and discard the used coffee grounds. To hold the basket in place while emptying grinds, flip up the portafilter basket retention clipand hold it down with your thumb as you empty the basket.
  3. Rinse the basket and portafilter with warm soapy water and rinse well. Single and double shot baskets are top-rack dishwasher safe, but the portafilter is not.
  4.  Wipe the underside of the brew head with a damp cloth or paper towel to remove any coffee grounds that might have been left behind

HOW TO CLEAN THE MILK RESERVOIR AND FROTHING TUBE

  1. Remove the milk reservoir from the unit (tilt it up before pulling it out). Transfer any remaining milk to another container and refrigerate.
  2. Wash the milk reservoir and its lid thoroughly with warm soapy water. Rinse well. Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, as they will scratch the finish. The milk reservoir is NOT dishwasher safe.
  3. Attach the portafilter with an empty basket in it to the brew head in the unit.
  4. Place a large empty cup under the brew head and be sure there is water in the water reservoir.
  5.  Add fresh water to the milk reservoir and return it to the unit.
  6. Set the froth strength to Extra. Use the silver froth tube lever to position the froth dispensing tube over the cup.
  7. Press the CLEAN button. Hot water and steam will come out in bursts. Do not remove the cup until the clean cycle has completely ended (unit will beep three times andother function buttons will light up). NOTE: If the clean cycle is canceled before finishing, wait a few minutes before removing the cup as more hot water and steammay be expelled.
  8. After the cycle ends, dispose of the water in the mug and any water left in the milk and water reservoirs.

HOW TO CLEAN THE WATER RESERVOIREmpty the water reservoir between uses. Discard the remaining water by removing the reservoir emptying it into the sink. Wash the water reservoir as needed with soapy water,rinse it well and wipe it dry. The water reservoir is NOT dishwasher safe.

This can adversely affect the seal between the brew head and the porta-filter while brewing espresso.
  2. Decalcify the unit as needed according to directions on p. 20.

HOW TO DECALCIFYMineral deposits built up in the unit will affect the operation of the appliance.Your appliance must be decalcified when you notice an increase in the time required to brew espresso, or when there is excessive steaming. Also, you may notice a build-up of white deposits on the surface of the brew head. The frequency of cleaning depends upon the hardness of your water.

TO DECALCIFY INTERNAL PARTS:

  1. Be sure the unit is cool, off, and unplugged.
  2. Fill the water reservoir with white vinegar to between the “Min” and “Max” markings on the tank. Fill the milk reservoir with water and slide it into the unit.
  3. Put a large cup or jar on the drip tray and position the froth dispensing tube in the cup.
  4. Insert the portafilter with an empty basket in it into the brew head.
  5. Plugin the unit and turn it on.
  6. Press the CLEAN button
  7.  Repeat Steps 1-6 as necessary using only freshwater to rinse any remaining traces of vinegar out of the machine.

HOW TO DECALCIFY THE WATER RESERVOIR1. Fill the water reservoir with fresh, undiluted white vinegar.2. Let sit for at least 8 hours; the reservoir may be placed on the unit for this time.3. Discard vinegar then rinse the water reservoir thoroughly with fresh water.
