STEP 10 – EMPTYING THE PORTAFILTER
• Remove the portafilter from the group head by rotating the portafilter to the left until
it releases.
• To empty the used grounds, turn the portafilter upside down in a bin and gently knock
out the grounds. Used grounds should be thrown away with domestic waste. Discar-
ding of used grounds in a sink can cause drains to become blocked.
• With the filter still in place, hold the portafilter underneath the group head, press and
hold down the one cup button to release hot water. Rinse the portafilter until water
runs clear.
• Insert the portafilter back into the group head to dry out and keep warm.
WARNING: THE METAL PARTS OF THE PORTAFILTER WILL BE VERY HOT.
THE ART OF TEXTURING MILK
The appliance comes complete with a commercial style swivel steam
wand.
•
Fill the stainless steel frothing jug maximum ½ full with cold,
fresh milk.
•
Turn the steam selector dial to the Steam-position. The red
steam light will start to flash indicating that the machine is heating to create steam.
• When the steam light stops flashing it is ready to use.
• Before inserting the wand into the milk, pause the steam by returning the dial back to
the STAND BY-position. This will avoid splashing the milk out of the jug (this pause
function lasts for 6 seconds before exiting steam mode).
• Insert the wand into the milk and return the Steam dial back to Steam-position.
• To stop, return the steam dial to the STAND BY-position and remove the jug.
Note:
When the espresso machine creates steam, a pumping noise can be heard. This is the
normal operation of the 17 Bar pump.
Note:
After 5 minutes of continuous steaming, the machine will automatically disable the
steam function. The steam light will flash. When this occurs return the steam dial to the
STAND BY-position.
