1. THE ESPRESSOCLASSIC
COFFEE CENTER
Coffee experts consider brewing cof-
fee under high pressure to be the ideal
process to extract maximum flavor
and aroma. The EspressoClassic
produces perfect espresso coffee
with a thick, foamy layer on top called
"crema." The "crema" traps the fine
aromatics and the light gaseous
flavors that register on the palate. The
"crema" keeps flavor locked in that
would otherwise escape. The high
pressure and short brewing time
prevent the extraction of bitter oils
and release less caffeine than other
brewing methods. For this reason,
many European restaurants serve
"crema" coffee only.
Whether you are brewing a 1 oz. shot
of espresso or a 12 oz. mug of coffee,
your EspressoClassic produces the
absolute freshest and most aromatic
cup of "crema" coffee possible. Not
only will your EspressoClassic make
the perfect espresso, but within sec-
onds the patented DualFrother system
turns your espresso into a delicious
cappuccino or latte.
With its moveable cylinder you can
select from "steaming only" (for lattes)
or "steaming and frothing" (for cap-
puccinos). The extra-long cylinder
allows you to steam directly in tall
latte glasses or in extra large pitchers.
The separate hot water function
allows you to make a cup of hot tea
or instant soup in 30 seconds.
Your EspressoClassic is a true coffee
center. Using the EspressoClassic
reduces the time and effort normally
involved in making espresso and cap-
puccino. The EspressoClassic comes
equipped with two "regular" sieves as
well as a "pod" sieve. Using coffee
pods eliminates measuring coffee and
facilitates clean-up.
