Introduction
Congratulations! You are the owner of a Details by Mr Coffee model ECM7 Steam Espresso/
Cappuccino Maker. This unique appliance has been designed to provide you with an excellent
tasting cup of espresso or cappuccino quickly and conveniently.
Espresso is a unique method of coffee brewing in which hot water is forced through
finely ground espresso 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 l-1
/2
to 2 ounce portions, in demitasse cups.
Most espresso drinkers outside Europe prefer cappuccino a drink made of about
third espresso, one-third hot milk and one-third f oam milk. Preparing espresso or
cappuccino is very different than brewing regular automatic drip coffee.
To ensure your safety and long life of this appliance, please read all instructions, cautions,
notes, and attentions.
