INTRODUCTION

Congratulations! You have selected a quality MR. COFFEE® Espresso/Cappuccino Maker. This unique appliance has been designed to provide you with delicious espresso/ cappuccino quickly and conveniently.

Espresso is a unique method of coffee brewing in which hot water is forced through finely ground coffee. Popular in Europe, it is a far richer and more full-bodied brew than regular American coffee. Because of its richness, espresso is usually served in 44 to 59 mL (1.5 to 2 oz.) portions, in demitasse cups.

Most espresso drinkers outside of Europe prefer cappuccino, a drink made with about one third espresso, one third steamed milk, and one third frothed milk. Preparing espresso or cappuccino is very different from brewing regular drip coffee since this appliance under pressure and requires special attention.

Please read ALL of the instructions, cautions, notes and warnings included in this Instruction Manual carefully before you begin to use this appliance. When this unit is used, some parts and accessories get hot and need to cool down. Proper care and maintenance will ensure the long life of the MR. COFFEE® Espresso/Cappuccino Maker and its trouble-free operation. Save these instructions and refer to them often for cleaning and care tips.

CAUTION

Please follow these important safety instructions while using your unit:

1.Before removing any of the parts and accessories, Make sure the unit is switched OFF, the control knob is in the OFF position and unplug the appliance.

E7

BVMC-ECMP55 _13ESM1.INDD 9-10

2.Do not remove the brew basket at any time during the brewing process.

3.Use caution when removing the brew basket. The metal parts may still be very hot. Also, there may be hot water floating on the top of the filter. Hold it only by its handle and dispose the brewed coffee grounds by using the filter retention clip.

4.If coffee does not drip from basket, the brew basket is blocked. Turn off the appliance and allow it to cool

down. The blockage may be caused by the coffee being too finely ground. See “PROBLEMS AND CAUSES” on Pages E19-E20.

5.WHEN CLEANING THE FROTHING TUBE: Place a frothing pitcher or large cup (with at least 11-ounce capacity) half full of water under the frothing tube cap. Make sure the tip of the frothing tube is submerged in liquid before turning the control knob to the STEAM “ ” position. Froth the water for approximately 15 seconds then wipe clean the frothing tube and cap.

NOTE: In order for your unit to work properly time after time, clean the frothing tip and tube after each use.

HOW TO PREPARE QUALITY ESPRESSO AND CAPPUCCINO AT HOME

COFFEE TIPS

The coffee should be freshly ground and dark roasted. You may want to try a French or Italian roast. Pre-ground coffee will only retain its flavor for 7 – 8 days, provided it is stored in an airtight container and in a cool, dark area. Do not store in a refrigerator or freezer. Whole beans are recommended to be ground just before use. Coffee beans

E8

2/22/13 2:26 PM

stored in an airtight container will keep up to 4 weeks before they begin to lose their flavor.

BEAN GRINDING TIPS

This is a vital step in the espresso making process and takes

practice. The coffee must be of a fine grind.

• The correct grind should look like salt.

• If the grind is too ine, the water will not low through the coffee even under pressure. These grinds look like powder and feel like flour when rubbed between

fingers.

• If the grind is too coarse, the water lows through the coffee too fast, preventing a full-flavored extraction. Be sure to use a quality grinder for uniform consistency. Burr or Conical grinders are recommended for best results.

BEFORE BREWING YOUR FIRST ESPRESSO

Please refer to Page E6 for the Diagram of Parts.

1.Make sure the unit is switched OFF, the control knob is in the OFF position and it is unplugged from the electrical outlet.

2.First remove and then wash the water reservoir, lid, brew basket and filters in a mixture of mild detergent and water. Rinse each thoroughly and place them back into the unit. Refer to the instructions below on “How to Brew Espresso” before removing the filter and brew basket.

3.To clean the inside of the appliance, follow steps listed on “How to Brew Espresso” using water only. Do not immerse the appliance in water or attempt to reach any of its internal parts.

PREPARING THE COFFEE

Choosing the filter:

Place the filter in the brew basket. Select from the two

E10

2/22/13 2:26 PM

filters that come with your unit depending on the amount of cups you wish to prepare (1 or 2 demitasses). The recommended recipe is to use the small 7 gram filter to make a one-ounce shot of espresso. The large 14 gram filter can be used for two one-ounce shots. These recipes can be adjusted by adjusting the amount of water used in each shot, less water for stronger espresso.

Inserting the filter:

a. To insert the selected filter in the brew basket, make sure to align the notch on the filter with the groove inside the brew basket.

b. Turn the filter to the left or right to lock in place. This will help secure the filter in the brew basket.

NOTE: To remove and clean the filter, turn filter to the left or right to align the filter notch with the groove inside the brew basket.

Filling with coffee:

Fill the selected filter with fresh, fine ground espresso coffee. Clean any excess coffee from the rim of the filter holder. This will assure proper fit under the brew head.

ATTENTION: Tamp or compress coffee using the tamper as show below. Do not overfill the filter. This might cause clogging or overflow.

Placing the brew basket:

Position brew basket underneath the brew head, attach

2.Make sure the control knob is in the OFF position.

3.Place the cup or two cups (demitasses) under the brew basket or if you prefer, place a small jar or carafe. If you wish to prepare up to 4 cups at a time, you should use a small jar, carafe or regular cup and then pour the espresso into the demitasses. If you will be brewing up to two demitasses at a time, you can place the two small cups under the brew basket ensuring each one of them is directly under one of the two outlet spouts located under the brew basket.

4.Plug the power cord into an electrical outlet and turn the ON/OFF Switch to the ON position. The power indicator light will become solid red while the unit is on.

5.Turn the BREW/STEAM switch and make sure it is on

BREW “ ” position. When BREW indicator is solid Green, rotate the control knob counter-clockwise to the BREW “ ” Position.This will initiate the brewing process and espresso will begin to flow in just seconds.

9.If you wish to brew additional espresso, repeat the process by following the steps in the “HOW TO BREW ESPRESSO” section at the bottom of pages E10-E11.

CAUTION: The metal parts of the brew basket might still be very hot. Make sure to use the filter retainer clip when discarding the grounds. Cool these parts by running under cold water.

10.For cleaning instructions, refer to Page E15.

NOTE: If the unit has not been used for several days, it is recommended to prime the unit for 30 seconds according to the “IMPORTANT” section on page E10.

HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO

Cappuccino is espresso topped with steamed and frothed milk. Frothing milk for cappuccino takes practice. Do not be discouraged if it is not perfect the first time. The milk should be half steamed (bottom of pitcher) and half froth (top of pitcher). It may take a few times before you perfect this process.

For best results, we recommend frothing the milk in a

E13

BVMC-ECMP55 _13ESM1.INDD 15-16

separate pitcher and pouring the steamed milk into your coffee. The milk and pitcher should be cold. Do not use a pitcher, which has just been washed in warm water. We also recommend a stainless steel frothing pitcher and a beverage thermometer, if you own one, for preparing the best froth and steamed milk.

PREPARATION: Gather the following prior to brewing

• Fine espresso ground coffe

• Tap water (or, preferably your favorite bottled water)

• Milk (2% is recommended for best frothing results)

• Frothing pitcher

• Teaspoon

• Your favorite cups/demitasses

• A kitchen thermometer (optional) placed into the frothing pitcher will help enhance your tasting experience by optimizing the steamed milk temperature to 150°-155° F.

1.The first step in making cappuccino is to make espresso. Therefore, fill the water reservoir with cold water. Never use warm or hot water to fill the water reservoir.

2.Follow the steps in the “HOW TO BREW ESPRESSO” section at the bottom of pages E10-E11.

3.Fill a small stainless steel or ceramic pitcher 1/2 full with cold milk and set next to machine. Skim or 2% milk will be the easiest to froth.

4.You are now ready to froth and steam your milk. Turn the ON/OFF Switch to the ON position, turn Brew/ Steam Switch to STEAM “ ” position and wait until the Brew/Steam Indicator Light becomes solid green. Hold the pitcher under the frothing tube (which can be swiveled) so that the tip of the frothing tube is slightly immersed in the milk. Turn the control knob clockwise to the STEAM “ ” position. Hold the pitcher for about 50 seconds (for 4oz. of milk) or longer if warmer milk is desired. REMEMBER: The milk and the pitcher should be very cold prior to frothing.
