4. empty the cup, wait for the “ok” light to switch on again
and repeat the same operation again.
(It is normal for a small, harmless puff of steam to be released
when the filter-holder is removed).
How to prepare espresso using ground coffee
1. After preheating the appliance as described above, place
the ground coffee filter in the filter holder, making sure
the node is correctly inserted in the slot as shown in fig. 8.
Use the smaller filter to make one coffee or the larger filter
to make two coffees.
2. To prepare one coffee, fill the smaller filter with a level
measuring spoon of ground coffee, about 7gr. (fig. 9). If
you wish to prepare two cups of coffee, fill the larger filter
with two less-than-level measuring spoons of ground cof-
fee (about 6+6 gr). fill the filter with small amounts at a
time to prevent the coffee spilling out.
Important:
for correct use, before filling the filter with ground coffee
always make sure there is no residual coffee in the filter from
a previous infusion.
3. Distribute the ground coffee evenly and press it lightly
using the coffee tamper (fig. 10).
Pressing the ground coffee is very important to obtain a
good espresso. If you press too hard, the coffee will run
out slowly and the crema will be dark. If you press too
lightly, the coffee will run out too fast and the crema will
be very light.
4. remove any excess coffee from the rim of the filter-holder
and attach it to the machine: turn the grip to the right (fig.
5) to prevent water from escaping.
5. Position the cup or cups under the filter-holder outlets
(fig. 11). It is recommended to warm the cups before
making the coffee by running them under hot water.
6. make sure that the ok light (fig. 6) is on (if it is off, wait
for it to switch on) then turn the dial to the
position
(fig. 7) until the required quantity is delivered. To inter-
rupt, turn the selector back in the
position (fig. 4).
(It is recommended not to run the coffee for more than 45
seconds).
7. Turn the grip from right to left to release the filter-holder.
Scalding hazard!
To prevent sprays, do not release the filter-holder while the
machine is dispensing coffee.
8. To remove the used coffee, let the coffee fall out by knock-
ing the over-turned filter-holder (fig. 12).
9. To turn the appliance off, rotate the selector dial to the “o”
position (fig. 13).
How to make cappuccino
1. Prepare the espresso coffee as described in the previous
paragraphs, using larger cups or glasses. remove the drip
tray to allow for larger glasses.
2. rotate the selector dial to the
position (fig. 14) and
wait until the ok light comes on (fig. 6).
This indicates that the boiler has reached the ideal tem-
perature for steam production.
3. In the meantime, fill a container with about 100 grams of
milk for every cappuccino to be prepared. for best results
use fresh milk from the refrigerator. When choosing the
container bear in mind that the volume of the milk will
increase by 2 or 3 times.
Please note:
it is recommended to use semi-skimmed milk at refrigerator
temperature (+/- 5°c).
4. Position the container with the milk under the cappuccino
maker (fig. 15).
5. Immerse the cappuccino maker in the milk for about
5 mm and rotate the steam dial anticlockwise (fig. 16)
(rotating the steam dial more or less varies the quantity
of steam discharged by the cappuccino maker). The milk
now starts to increase in volume and take on a creamy ap-
pearance.
6. When the milk has doubled in volume, immerse the cap-
puccino maker deeply and continue heating the milk (fig.
17). When the required temperature is reached (the ideal
is 70°c), interrupt steam delivery by rotating the steam
dial clockwise and placing the selector in the “o” position
(fig. 13).
7. Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espres-
so coffee prepared previously. The cappuccino is ready.
Sweeten to taste and if desired, sprinkle the froth with a
little cocoa powder.
Please note:
• To make coffee again after the milk has been frothed, cool
down the boiler first or the coffee will be burnt. To cool,
place a container under the boiler outlet, turn the selector
to the “coffee” position and run off the water until the ok
light goes out. Turn the selector back to the
position
and make the coffee as described above.
• Maximum steam delivery of 60 seconds is recommended
and the milk must not be frothed more than 3 times con-
secutively.
