Before Using Your Espresso Machine
Wash the filter holder and the stainless filters in mild
detergent and water. Rinse thoroughly.
It is recommended to complete a brewing operation
with cold water but without ground coffee before
making your first coffee to ensure that all internal
piping has been preheated (see ‘Brewing Coffee’
page 8).
Filling the water tank
• Ensure the Power ‘on/off’ switch is set to the
‘OFF’ position and Selector Control is in the
‘STAND BY’ position.
• Switch off at the power outlet and unplug the
power cord.
• Lift up the water tank lid and remove the water
tank. Fill with cold water to the maximum mark
and replace back into position in the machine,
pressing down firmly so that the water valve
opens. Close the water tank lid.
The water tank should be filled with fresh cold
water before use.
Check water level before use and replace the
water daily.
Do not use mineral or distilled water.
Note
Preparing the Coffee
• Place the 1 or 2 cup filter into the filter holder and
fill with ground espresso coffee (use the smaller
filter for 1 cup and the larger filter for 2 cups).
• Use the measuring/tamping spoon provided to
measure 1 level measure of 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
ground coffee for each filter as the filter
perforations have been constructed to utilise the
pressure build up in the machine to extract optimal
flavour with each brewing.
• Distribute the coffee evenly and press down lightly
with the tamping end of the measuring spoon (if
there is too much coffee, the flow of water can
become blocked).
