STEP 4 – PRIMING THE BREW HEAD
Before placing the Filter Holder into
position, it is recommended to run a
short flow of water through the Brew
Head.
Ensure the Selector Control is in the
‘Standby’ position and plug the power
cord into a 120V power outlet and
switch on. Press the Power On/Off
button to ‘On’ and the button surround
will illuminate. The Steam button
surround will also illuminate.
The machine will make a pumping noise
then the Heating Light will illuminate red.
When the correct temperature has been
reached the light will cycle out.
Place a container under the Brew Head.
Prime the Brew Head by quickly turning
the Selector Control to the ‘Espresso’
position until water flows then turn back
to the ‘Standby’ position. A pumping
noise will be heard in this operation.
STEP 5 - PRE-WARMING THE CUPS
The Cup Warming Plate will start to
warm as the machine heats.
Pre-warm the espresso cups by placing
on the Cup Warming Plate. This will help
maintain the coffee’s optimal
temperature when brewed into the cups.

STEP 2 - PREPARING THE COFFEE
Place the 1 or 2 cup filter into the Filter
Holder (use the smaller filter for 1 cup
and the larger filter for 2 cups).
Use 1 level measure of ground espresso
coffee for the 1 cup filter and 2 level
measures for the 2 cup filter. It is
important to use the correct amount of
coffee for each Filter as the filter
perforations have been constructed to
utilise the pressure in the machine to
extract optimal flavor with each brewing.
(Refer to The Grind on Page 21).
STEP 3 - TAMPING THE COFFEE
Distribute the coffee evenly in the Filter
and press down lightly with the tamping
end of the measuring spoon (Refer to
Coffee Making Tips on Page 21).
Clean any excess coffee from the rim of
the Filter holder to ensure a proper fit
into the Brew Head.
