1. Tips for Brewing the Best Espresso
• To extract the fullest flavor from your coffee, we recommend using whole coffee
beans that have been freshly ground each time espresso is prepared.
• Do not fill your sieve to the brim. Using the coffee scoop included, add 1 level spoon
of ground coffee per shot of espresso.
• Using fresh, cold water that is free of chlorine and other impurities will help improve
the taste of espresso
• To ensure your espresso stays at optimum temperature, we recommend that you
preheat your cups.
2. Before Using for the First Time
After carefully unpacking your Café TS, wash all removable parts with warm, soapy
water and rinse thoroughly. Familiarize yourself with the appliance and read the entire
instruction manual. Plug the power cord into a grounded wall outlet according to the
safety instructions. Rinse the internal components before making espresso as described
in chapter 6, Warming Internal Components and Cups.
3. Filling the Water Tank
Remove the water tank by lifting up on the handle. Open the lid and fill the water tank
with fresh, cold water between the MIN and MAX markings. Close the lid and replace the
water tank by pushing down firmly, to ensure the tank is properly engaged.
