BREWING 2 ESPRESSO CUPS
1. Add 2.5 teaspoons (12 g) fresh espresso-ground coffee in the 2-Cup
Filter Basket. To improve the extraction of rich coffee flavor, use the
Coffee Tamper to compress the grounds, then twist the Tamper
slightly to polish the surface of the grounds. Remove any excess
coffee remaining on the outer edges.
2. Place the 2-Cup Filter Basket into the Filter Basket Holder. Note
that the 1-Cup Basket Spacer is not needed for 2-Cups. (See Figure
4.) Rotate the Filter Basket until the nibs on the Basket fit flat into
the grooves in the Filter Basket Holder.
IMPORTANT: To avoid water spillage, make sure the Filter Basket is
properly seated into the Filter Basket Holder.
INSERTING/REMOVING THE FILTER BASKET HOLDER
1. Align the Filter Basket Holder Handle (loaded with ground coffee)
with the UNLOCK icon on the left side of the Coffee Spout.
2. Make sure the Basket Holder Clip is folded back onto the Filter
Basket Holder Handle. Push the Filter Basket Holder upwards and
insert under the Spout of the machine. (See Figure 5.)
3. For better leverage, when locking in the Handle, hold the Filter
Basket Handle with one hand, and place the other hand on the
Top Warming Plate.
4. Rotate the Handle to the right until it is under the LOCK icon.
