Inserting the Filter Holder
Place the filter holder underneath the group
head so that the handle is aligned with the
insert graphic. Insert the filter holder up
into the group head and rotate the handle
to the right until resistance is felt or until it
can no longer be rotated. This will be at an
approximate 90° angle to the machine.
Brewing Coffee
Ensure the ‘Selector Control’ is in the
‘STANDBY’ position and plug the power
cord into a 120V power outlet.
Press the ‘POWER’ button ‘On’. The
‘POWER’ button surround will illuminate.
The red ‘HEATING’ light will illuminate and
turn off when the machine has reached the
correct temperature.
As soon as the red ‘HEATING’ light turns
off, the machine has heated up.
Ensure the drip tray and filter holder are in
place.
Place one or two pre-warmed cups under
the filter holder outlet. When brewing into
two cups at the same time, no more than
1oz should be extracted into either cup.
Set the ‘SELECTOR CONTROL’ to the
‘ESPRESSO’ position. After a few seconds,
the extraction of espresso will begin.
When sufficient coffee has been extracted,
set the ‘SELECTOR CONTROL’ to the
‘STANDBY’ position. This will stop the flow
of coffee.
If you do not need to use the steam
function, press the ‘POWER’ button ‘Off’,
unplug the power cord and allow the
machine to cool.
NOTE:
Recommended measurements are
1oz/30ml for 1 shot and 2oz/60ml for
2 shots. The machine remains ready
for brewing and maintains a constant
heating temperature as long as the
‘POWER’ switch is left ‘On’. If the
temperature should drop, the red heating
light will illuminate and the machine
will automatically heat up to the correct
brewing temperature.
Preparing Espresso Pods
Your Café Venizia™ can be used with
most leading brands of espresso pods. To
prepare the pod for brewing, place the pod
in the pod filter and ensure that all of the
pod’s surface area is fitted inside the filter. If
the edges of the pod overflow the filter, you
will need to trim them off until the pod is
contained wholly within the filter. Lock the
filter holder in place and brew the coffee as
per the instructions in the 'Brewing Coffee'
section.
NOTE:
The quality of the coffee and créma
produced will be dependent on the type
of pod used. Only use the pod filter when
using the espresso pods.
