4. To insert the filter holder, line up the
arrow located on the thumb guard of the
filter holder with the arrow on the left
side of the machine.
Raise the filter holder up into brewing
head and turn the filter holder firmly to
the right, until it can go no further. The
arrow on the filter holder should be as far
right in the lock-range as possible. If the
arrow ist not at least in the middle of the
lock-range, do not operate the machine.
Rather, remove the filter holder and
reinsert it as described above until the
arrow is within the lock-range
(see figure 4).
By following this procedure this will
prevent the filter holder from being
dislodged as pressure builds up during the
brewing process.
5.
Open the hinged lid and unscrew the
boiler cap by turning it counterclockwise
(see figure 5 + 6).
6. Fill the boiler container with cold water
using the markings indicated on the glass
carafe
(see figure 7).
CAUTION
Never fill the boiler while your “Il Caffè
Duomo” is switched on.
Never fill more than 20 oz of water into the
boiler.
The glass carafe has markings for 2 and
4 cups:
2 cups of water = 2 cups of espresso
3 cups of water = 2 cups of espresso, plus
steam for frothing milk for cappuccino
4 cups of water = 4 cups of espresso.
Maximum capacity to the bottom of the
metal band around the glass carafe = 4 cups
of espresso, plus steam for frothing milk for
cappuccino.
CAUTION:
Never fill the carafe above the bottom of
the metal band!
NOTE
It is very important to fill only the amount of
water you need into the boiler. Your “Il
Caffè Duomo“ will always need to process
all the water until the boiler is empty.
7. Close the boiler cap securely by turning it
clockwise (see figure 8). Place carafe lid
on carafe so that the lid opening points
towards the pouring spout of the carafe
(see figure 9).
8. Place carafe under the filter holder
(see figure 10).
ATTENTION:
Make sure the overflow grid is in place.
9.
Should you choose to make espresso
directly into two cups, clip the two cup
adapter onto the filter holder and make
sure that the cups are placed correctly
underneath the spouts
(see figure 11 + 12).
10.Turn the espresso “on/off“ switch (h)
“on“ (see figure 13).
It will take approximately 2 minutes for the
water to be heated. The water will then be
forced through the ground coffee into the
glass carafe or cups.
11.Wait until all the water in the boiler has
been used. Switch off the machine.
12.Do not unscrew the boiler cap while the
machine is in operation. Wait until
brewing cycle is completed and all water
and steam has been used
(See CAUTION - PRESSURE).
CAUTION:
Use caution when removing the filter
holder, as the metal parts may still be hot.
To remove the filter holder, turn the filter to
the left, past the ”lock” markings, until the
holder dislodges from the machine.
Cappuccino reportedly takes its name from
the chocolate hues of the robes worn by the
Capuchin monks who favored this delicious
dessert coffee. Cappuccino is traditionally
made up of 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk
and 1/3 froth and can be tailored to one’s
own taste with cinnamon, sugar, chocolate
flakes, or even liquor. Its versatility makes
cappuccino a worldwide gourmet choice.
