PREPARING ESPRESSO COFFEE

Espresso is a strong coffee, with a characteristic taste, extremely rich in aroma. Therefore, the
water which arrives in the filter with a high temperature is pushed very fast through the coffee
mass by a strong pressure. It extracts the nectar from the grinding and draws the essential
aromas from the coffee. That's why the espresso is usually served in small "espresso" cups.
Use preferably a special espresso coffee with suitable roasting and grinding.
Remember that the espresso needs a finer grinding than standard coffee.
1. Make sure that the appliance is unplugged and that the selector knob is in the 0/OFF
position.
2. Insert the filter into the filter holder. On the filters there are two marks (2 and 4 cups). Fill
with ground espresso coffee until the desired level.
3. Gently tamp the coffee into coffee filter and remove the excess coffee from the edge of
filter holder. This will ensure the good positioning of the filter holder in its support.
Do not tamp too hard. To avoid a blocking or an overflow, do not overfill the level "4" in
the filter.
4. Caution: Check that the filter locking flap is as far as possible from the filter. Position the
filter holder in the support of the filter holder on the appliance (INSERT). Turn firmly to the
right until it blocks (LOCK). If the filter holder does not fit in front of the LOCK position, do
not operate your appliance, remove the filter holder and position it again as described
here above until the filter holder is positioned correctly. This will avoid that the filter holder
comes out of its housing as the pressure rises when the coffee is flowing through the filter.
5. Unscrew the cap of the tank.
6. Fill the jug with cold tap water up to the desired level (2 or 4 cups) and pour the water into
the water tank.

the spout of the filter holder faces the opening of the jug lid.
10. Insert the plug in the power supply.
