Espresso coffee
Espresso coffee is richer in flavor and stronger
than ordinary coffee. It is traditionally drunk
from small espresso cups which have been
pre-heated. Hot water and pressure combine
to passed through ground coffee in order to
obtain this delicious black, foamy coffee,
which has an invigorating effect.
You can always recognize genuine espresso
because of its characteristic flavor and rich,
delicious foam (crema). This however requires
both high pressure and your favorite espresso
coffee (which has been well roasted and
correctly ground). If you are unable to
purchase ground espresso coffee, use a coffee
grinder to grind the beans. The coffee must
not be ground «too fine». It should be slightly
grainy. If it is too fine, you run the risk of
blocking the grids of the percolation head and
the filter.
To guarantee complete success in making a
good espresso, it is necessary to use fresh,
clean, cold water—free of chlorine or other
impurities that can ruin the taste of your
coffee.
Before first use
• Clean the water heating system with one or
two tanks of clean water, as follows:
• Open the lid, lift out the tank and fill it with
water (1).
• Replace the tank, positioning it firmly in such
a way that the connecting valve situated
beneath the tank opens, and close the lid.
• Plug in the appliance.
• Set the «on/off» switch (h) . The indicator
light (h1) will come on.
• Place the filters in the filter holder without
any coffee. Then fit the assembly onto the
percolation head. To position the filter
holder correctly, point the handle to the left,
press the filter holder onto the percolation
head, then turn the handle to the right until
the lock position (2).
• Place as large an empty container as possible
under the filter holder.
• As soon as the appliance reaches the right
temperature, the temperature control
indicator light (c) will come on. Turn the
function selector (b) to the position «
and allow all the water contained in the tank
to run through the machine.
• If necessary, interrupt this operation by
turning the function selector (b) to the
position O to empty the container then
resume the operation.
