HOW TO MAKE ESPRESSO COFFEE USING PRE
GROUND COFFEE
1 Place the ground coee lter (C2 or C3) in the lter holder
(g. 9). Use the lter to make one coee or the
lter to make two coees;
2 To make just one coee, place one level measure of pre-
ground coee (about 7 g) in the lter (g. 10). To make two
coees, place two loosely lled measures (about 7+7 g) of
pre-ground coee in the lter. Fill the lter a little at a time
to prevent the pre-ground coee from overowing;
Important:
For correct operation, before lling with pre-ground coee,
make sure there are no coee residues left in the lter from the
last time you made coee.
3 Distribute the pre-ground coee evenly and press lightly
with the presser (g. 11).
Correct pressing of the pre-ground coee is essential to
obtain a good espresso. If you press too rmly, the coee
will be delivered slowly and will be strong. If you press
too lightly, the coee will be delivered quickly and will be
weak;
4. Remove any excess coee from the rim of the lter holder
and attach the lter holder to the appliance. To attach
correctly, align the lter holder handle with the OPEN
