1. The Café PRO Professional Espresso & Cappuccino Machine
Thank you for purchasing the Capresso Café PRO Professional Espresso &
Cappuccino Machine. This professional style machine includes a boiler which
will internally keep a reserve of water at the ideal temperature for brewing
which provides more consistent results. The Café PRO includes two different
portafilters: one for convenience, one for control. The high-powered professional
frothing wand can be used to create the perfect froth for cappuccinos or lattes.

Tips for obtaining the best brew:
• Always use fresh high-quality coffee, preferably ground right before brewing.
• Use "espresso grind" coffee for pump espresso machines which is finely
ground with a similar texture to fine sugar.
• Store your coffee in a dark, airtight container and leave it in a cool place
(cabinet or pantry). Do not store coffee in the refrigerator. Only store unopened
bags of whole coffee beans in the freezer and defrost before grinding.
• Always brew espresso into a pre-warmed cup. This can be done by leaving the
cup on the warming platform or running hot water into the cup before brewing.
• Always purge the brew head and frothing wand to ensure hottest performance.
See chapter 4.
• For best flavor, drink the espresso immediately after it is made.
• Follow all cleaning, maintenance and decalcifying instructions.
