Tips for Perfect Espresso
1. Use freshly roasted espresso beans (avoid caramelized beans).
2. Store coffee beans in a cool, dark and dry container.
Vacuum sealed if possible.
3. Pre-heat your espresso and cappuccino cups using the cup warmer
storage on the top of the machine.
4. Set the water temperature according to your needs.
5. For an extra creamy espresso lower the spouts to bring them as close
to the cup/cups as possible.
