How to make a good Espresso coffee:

1 Follow the procedure described under

“Preparation”.

2 Select the correct filter basket (10 or 11) and

insert it in the filter holder (9).

Use the small filter for 1 cup and the large

filter for 2 cups of espresso.

Then insert the filter holder (9) into the

brewing head (11) to warm-up

3 Wait until the machine has reached the correct

temperature with filter holder inserted

(heating time of about 6 minutes).

Use this time to set table, prepare cups,

coffee, milk, etc

4 After the warm-up period, remove the warm

filter-holder (9) from the brewing head and

fill with correctly ground espresso coffee using

the measuring spoon provided.

Place one level measure of coffee in basket

for each cup of espresso. Do not overfill.

Gently tamp down coffee with the tamper

(18) provided. Do not compress too firmly.

5 Clean any excess coffee from the rim of filter

holder (9). Insert filter holder into brew head

by holding handle approximately 45

degrees to the left as you face machine. When

properly aligned,move handle firmly to the

right to lock into position.

The handle should point to the front of the

machine or slightly to the right.

6 Place one or two espresso cups on the drip

plate to line up with the spouts of the filter holder.

Depress hot water/brew switch (2) to pos. “1”.

Espresso will start to flow into cups.

7 When cups are 3/4 full, release brew switch

to “0”. The more water you allow to flow, the

weaker the coffee. When properly made, the

espresso will have a light brown foam “cre-

ma” floating on the top.

If not, refer to “In the event of faulty

function”.

8 Remove cups and serve.

9 To make more espresso, carefully and slowly

remove the filter holder by moving handle to

the left. Be careful as hot water will be on top

of the coffee grinds in the holder. Some water

will continue to drip from brewing head as

filter holder is removed. That is normal and

due to the pump pressure in the system.

Knock out used coffee grinds from filter. For

more espresso repeat steps 4 to 8 above

Preparing cappuccino:

When preparing to make a cappuccino, have

all of the ingredients at hand as well as a

frothing pitcher (or mug) halffilled with skimmed

or low-fat milk and cups that are larger (6 oz.)

than those used for espresso.

Frothing Milk:

The higher the fat content in the milk the denser

the froth will be. The Turbo-Frother (8) or milk

frother (24) will give you all the froth required

but don’t let milk come to a boil.

It may require two or three attempts to “become

an expert” but you will be successful at frothing

milk if you give it a chance. Swivel the Turbo-

Frother steam nozzle (or milk frother) slightly

outward so that you can get the frothing pitcher

under the nozzle without knocking the base of

the machine.

Turbo frother steam nozzle version:

1 Make espresso (in a large cups) as described

above

2 Position steam switch (4) to “1”.

3 After 15 to 20 seconds or, when temperature

ready-light (3) goes on, place the frothing

pitcher halffilled with low-fat milk under Tur-

bo Frother steam nozzle so that tip is just

under the surface of the milk. See Fig.03.

OPTIONAL

“Perfect crema” device (13)

To ensure the optimum function of the “Perfect

cream” device, insert the frothing jet device

into the filter holder.

We recommend that the “Perfect cream”

device be cleaned on a daily basis, before

use, in order to prevent any blockage of the

delivery holes. A pin may be used to clean

out the hole.

Even if the type of coffee grinding is not correct

the use of the “Perfect cream” device will pro-

duce the typical creamy froth of an espresso

coffee.

N.B.:

Only use the “perfect cream device with

a large 2-cup filter
