4.1 Before Frst Use

After carefully unpacking your es­presso machine, wash all remov­able parts with warm soapy water
and rinse thoroughly. Familiarize
yourself with the appliance and
read the instruction manual. Plug
the power cord into a grounded
wall outlet according to the safety
instructions. Turn the machine on
by pressing the Power Button (11)
on the side of the appliance.

The Power Button will light solid
blue while the indicator light on the
Control Knob (5) will start to blink,
indicating the machine is heating
up.

Rinse the internal components be­fore making espresso. Fill the water
tank and pump a few ounces of
water through the brew head (6)
and the frothing wand (10). Follow
the procedure in chapter 4 for
"Warming Internal Components &
Cups" to rinse the machine before
first use.

4.2 Fllng the Water
Tank

Remove the water tank (3) by lift­ing up on the handle (2). Open the
lid (1) and fill the water tank with
fresh cold water between the MIN
and MAX markings.

Close the lid (1) and replace the
water tank by pushing down firmly,
to ensure the tank is properly en­gaged.

Espresso

5.1.1 Selectng the

Coffee Grnd

This is an important step in the es­presso making process as the finely
ground coffee must have uniform
consistency.

• The correct grind should look like
salt.

• If the grind is too fine, the water
will not flow through the coffee
and cause too much pressure to
build up in the machine. These
grinds look like powder and feel
like flour when rubbed between
fingers.

• If the grind is too coarse, the
water flows through the coffee
too quickly, preventing a full-fla­vored extraction. Tip! Be sure to
use a quality burr grinder for uni­form consistency. Blade coffee
grinders are not recommended
for espresso brewing because
the grind is not as consistent.

• If you are experiencing problems
with taste (bitter, sour, under
extracted, etc.) adjust the grind
size of the coffee and/or switch
the brand or roast of whole bean
coffee.

5.1.2 Preparng the
Machne for Brewng

1. Make sure the indicator light is

1. After you prepare the machine
and ground coffee as described
in the previous sections you are

2. Place 1 or 2 small cups under
the portafilter (7). For brewing
two cups at a time, you can
place the cups under the
portafilter ensuring each one
of them is directly under one of
the two spouts.

3. Once the indicator light in the

are pre-infused with water.
Then, after a short pause, the
espresso will begin to flow into
the cup(s).

4. When the cup is filled to the
desired level, turn the Control

After frothing, we
recommended you
allow the machine
to cool down for at
least 5 minutes be­fore making espresso
again. This allows
the machine to cool
down from steam­ing temperature to
the proper espresso
brewing tempera­ture. If indicator light
is red, you may turn
Control Knob (5) to
the left to run water
through the portafil­ter (7). This will cool
down the system
so espresso can be

cups and then froth

6.3 Decalcfyng

When making espresso always use
cold, clean water. Using spring wa­ter or filtered water will slow down
calcium build up. We recommend
decalcifying the machine after
100-200 uses or at least every 2-3
months.

• When using commercial decal-
cifying agents it is important to
follow their instructions. You can
also use Capresso Cleaning Solu­tion, available at www.capresso.

oz. of water and add to the water
