GUIDE TO THE PERFECT
ESPRESSO
1. You may want to preheat the cups by filling
them with hot water, this will help preserve
the crema of the espresso. Set the cups
aside.
2. Select the appropriate filter basket and insert
it
into portafilter handle (15).
TIP: Use the one-cup filter
basket for a single
espresso,
the two-cup filter basket for a double
espresso, and pod filter basket for an espresso
pod.
3. Using the measuring
scoop, spoon finely
ground
coffee in the filter basket
holder (16).
Use one
scoop
for one cup and two scoops
for two cups, or place espresso pod in filter
basket.
4. Using the tamping tool,
apply a moderate
packing pressure (17). Add more coffee and
tamp
again if necessary to bring coffee to level.
5. Brush any excess coffee grounds from
around the edge of the filter basket (18).
IMPORTANT: Be sure not to overfill the filter
basket with coffee as this can cause the
portafilter holder to leek or overflow
TIP: Make sure the tamping tool is dry so
that wet coffee grinds do not stick to it.
6. Secure the portafilter holder to the brew head.
(19-20).
NOTE: Check to see that the espresso machine
is ready for use. Remember that if the power
light is solid and the manual,
and
are
solid, the espresso machine is on and is heating
up and ready to brew coffee.
7. Press the required volume button – manual
for a continuous pour (20), the
single
espresso for a 1.5 oz. or the
double
espresso for a 3.0 oz.
NOTE: When using the manual operation you
must press the button once to start the pour
and again to stop the pour. However, with the
single and
double espresso operations
you need only press these buttons once to start
the espresso pour and the program will auto-
matically stop the pour at the pre programmed
level.
8. Check the espresso pour. The ideal pour is
dark and
caramel with reddish reflections.
9. Serve espresso immediately.
