(fig.5). Attach the empty filter holder (without coffee) to the machine by positioning it under the boiler outlet with the handle towards the left (fig 6). Be sure
that the stean knob is firmly closed).
1.Attach the empty filter holder (without coffee) to the machine by positioning it under the boiler outlet with the handle towards the left 
(fig 5). Push upwards and at the same time turn the handle as far right as possible. It does not matter if the handle is not centrally aligned with the machine, as long as the filter holder is firmly attached to the appliance.

2.To prepare a single coffee, fill the filter with a level measure of ground coffee, about 7 g (fig. 10). To prepare two coffees, use the filter and fill with two loosely filled measures of ground coffee (about 6+6 g). Fill the filter in small doses to prevent the ground
coffee from overflowing.
IMPORTANT: For correct operation, before adding the ground coffee to the filter holder, make sure the filter is free from ground coffee from the previous infusion.
3.Distribute the ground coffee uniformly and press it lightly with the pressing pad (Fig. 11).
