1. The Café PRO Professional Espresso & Cappuccino Machine
Thank you for purchasing the Capresso Café PRO Professional Espresso &
Cappuccino Machine. This professional style machine includes a boiler which
will internally keep a reserve of water at the ideal temperature for brewing
which provides more consistent results. The Café PRO includes two different
portafilters: one for convenience, one for control. The high-powered professional
frothing wand can be used to create the perfect froth for cappuccinos or lattes.
For Warranty please see the end of this booklet. For accessories and parts
please contact Customer Service or order on our website: www.capresso.com
Tips for obtaining the best brew:
• Always use fresh high-quality coffee, preferably ground right before brewing.
• Use "espresso grind" coffee for pump espresso machines which is finely
ground with a similar texture to fine sugar.
• Store your coffee in a dark, airtight container and leave it in a cool place
(cabinet or pantry). Do not store coffee in the refrigerator. Only store unopened
bags of whole coffee beans in the freezer and defrost before grinding.
• Always brew espresso into a pre-warmed cup. This can be done by leaving the
cup on the warming platform or running hot water into the cup before brewing.
• Always purge the brew head and frothing wand to ensure hottest performance.
See chapter 4.
• For best flavor, drink the espresso immediately after it is made.
• Follow all cleaning, maintenance and decalcifying instructions.

3. Before Using for the First Time
After carefully unpacking your Café PRO, wash all removable parts with warm
soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Familiarize yourself with the appliance and
read the instruction manual. To ensure the first cup of coffee tastes excellent,
you should flush the internal parts of the machine with water as follows:
a) Fill the water tank with fresh, cold water. The water level should not exceed
the "MAX" mark on the tank. Then close the water tank lid.
NOTE: The appliance has a removable water tank for easy cleaning; you can
fill the tank with fresh water directly at your sink and then put the tank back
onto the appliance, pushing down firmly to engage the base valve. Make
sure the two hooks on the back of the water tank are inserted into the
openings in the back of the machine.
b) Place the portafilter with sieve onto the machine with no coffee inside the
sieve, then insert the portafilter into the appliance from the "INSERT" position.
Push up and attach the portafilter by firmly turning it counterclockwise until
it is in the "LOCK" position.
c) Place a cup on the removable drip tray.
d) Plug the power cord into a grounded wall outlet according to the safety
instructions; press the ON/OFF button so the indicator light illuminates blue.
The Coffee/Steam indicator light will start flashing blue while the machine
is heating and will illuminate solid blue when the machine is at the right
temperature for brewing coffee.
e) Once the Coffee/Steam indicator light is solid blue, turn the Selector Dial to
the " " position. The water will flow out.
f) After about one minute, turn the Selector Dial to the center "•" position to
stop brewing, discard the hot water; now you can start brewing.
NOTE: There may be noise when pumping the water for the first time, it is
normal; the machine is releasing the air in the appliance. After about 20
seconds, the noise will disappear.
