paper is placed inside the filter, otherwise this could
cause leaks. For creamier and thicker froth, the E.S.E
pod must be positioned correctly. The pod is
designed to make one cup of coffee. The use of 2
E.S.E pods on top of one another is not
recommended.
• Insert the filter holder into the appliance tightening it

7. INDIVIDUAL PROGRAMMING
OF THE VOLUME OF COFFEE:
To change the pre-programmed amount of water,
proceed as follows:
• Fill the water tank and turn the machine on
(fig.
1 abc, 2, and 4)
.
• Put a spoonful of coffee in the filter by using a
measuring spoon or use an E.S.E. or soft pod.
"ESE" for "Easy Serving Espresso" is a
pod (44 mm in diameter) of 7g of coffee
that has been selected, ground and com-
pacted between two filter papers especially
designed to make Italian style espresso
("ristretto" short coffee).
This system permits easy, simple, clean
and comfortable use of your machine.
Your machine is also compatible with soft
pods (generally 60 mm in diameter).
As this type of pod is not specifically designed
for espresso machines, you will obtain a wea-
ker espresso than with an E.S.E. pod.
