Rinsing and lling the boilers

The boilers need to be filled and rinsed before the Espresso Machine is used for the first time. The boilers will also need to be filled when:

- the Espresso Machine is not used for a prolonged period

- the water reservoir runs dry during use (this can damage the Espresso Machine)

- multiple beverages are steamed without brewing espresso or dispensing hot water

Remove the reservoir and rinse with

fresh cold water, empty, and place back

onto the Espresso Machine�

IMPORTANT: Distilled water or mineral water can damage the Espresso Machine� Do

not use either to brew espresso.

Slide the water reservoir left or right to

expose the top, and fill with fresh cold

water to the “max fill” line.

Warming the boilers

Make certain the steam dial is closed by

rotating it clockwise as far as possible.

Place a coffee cup underneath the brew

head� Do not attach the portafilter to

the brew head.

Press and hold the On/Off power

button until the ON indicator lights up. The dual boilers will begin heating, and the Espresso and Hot Water functions will begin to operate.

Press the Espresso button to activate

the water pump and fill the brewing boiler with water. After a few seconds, water will flow from the brew head.

When the cup is full, press the

Espresso button again to stop the water pump. The brewing boiler is

now ready for use�

Place the frothing pitcher under the

nozzle of the frothing arm�

Slowly open the Steam dial by turning it

counter-clockwise; press and hold the

Hot Water button to activate the water pump and fill the frothing boiler. After

press the On/Off Power button to turn

the Espresso Machine off�

Brewing espresso

Brewing perfect espresso is a skill that takes time to learn on any manual Espresso Machine� Your first attempts may need perfecting in order to produce the perfect consistency, smooth flavor and golden crema you expect� Practice consistently for a couple of weeks

with this Espresso Machine, and you will soon produce a perfect cup every time. For better results when brewing espresso, see the “Tips for great results” section to fine tune your brewing technique.

Make certain the water reservoir has

an adequate supply of water (the water

level should be between the “max” and “min” fill lines).

*Paper coffee pods are available for purchase at specialty coffee shops, or online.

Select the small or large capacity filter

basket. Use the small capacity basket for

a single shot of espresso (23�35 g), and

the large capacity basket for a double shot (56.7 g). The small capacity basket can be used with paper coffee pods*.

Press the filter basket into the

portafilter until it snaps into place� Do not fill with coffee at this time�

Position the portafilter underneath the

brew head and align the handle with

the arrow on the left side�

Raise the portafilter into the brew head

and tighten it with a firm twist to the right� When in place, the handle will point forward or slightly to the right�
