This press-filter coffee maker, which can
also be used as an infuser, was designed
by Guido Venturini in 2000. He was
inspired by a method of making coffee
which is now very common in northern
Europe and America, and which was
invented in Italy in the twenties - the
manual pressure filter.
Made of 18/10 stainless steel and
polyamide with an inner heat resistant
glass, “Inka” was designed for preparing
coffee with a particular taste. The taste
differs not only from espresso and
percolator coffee, but also coffee made
using the Melitta paper filter system and
the Neapolitan coffee maker. Its main
characteristic is that it allows you to obtain
your desired dosage of coffee by adjusting
the ratio of the amount of ground coffee
to the amount of water, and therefore to
make stronger or weaker coffee according
to your taste.
WARNING
IN ORDER TO USE AND MAINTAIN
THIS PRODUCT CORRECTLY, READ
THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
CAREFULLY AND KEEP THEM FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE.
“Inka” has been made using the most
suitable materials and production
techniques for its design. The slight
variations in size to which the polyamide
body and the heat resistant glass are
subject over time will not impair the
product's functionality if it is used
correctly, following the instructions for use.
In particular, polyamide is a material that
is sensitive to variations in temperature,
therefore the sensation of release noticed
after immersing it in hot water or during
use is normal.
The “Inka” coffee maker is ideal for making
coffee, but it may also be used for making
tea or herb tea. You are advised to wash
the filter thoroughly in order to remove
any residual coffee taste, or to use another
press-filter when using "Inka" as an infuser.
The cups referred to for the coffee made
in the press-filter are large American-style
cups or mugs (10 cl) and not traditional
Italian espresso coffee cups (5 cl).

Instructions for use
BEFORE USE
In order to remove the slight metallic taste
of the steel parts, when you use “Inka” for
the first time we recommend you wash it
first, following the cleaning instructions,
and then make a coffee to be thrown away.
USE
Remove the cover and its filter.
Warm the glass container by rinsing it with
very hot water.
Place the ground coffee in the glass con-
tainer. You can use any type of coffee, but
remember that the press-filter coffee-
making technique requires coffee that is
not too finely ground. The normal dose is
one rounded tablespoon per cup. (Figure 2)
Pour the amount of very hot water that
corresponds to the desired number of cups
onto the ground coffee - the recommended
maximum level is shown on the heat
resistant glass. (Figure 3)
STIR WITH A SPOON.
Leave the infusion to stand for 3-5 minutes
after putting the cover back on the coffee
maker, taking care to keep the filter raised
so that it is not in contact with the foam
that forms on the surface. The strength of
the coffee depends on the infusion time.
Press on the filter gently but firmly - the
coffee will be filtered immediately and is
ready to drink straight away. (Figure 4)
When pouring the coffee, make sure you
always hold the cover with your thumb
and the handle with your hand, as shown
in figure 5.
