making coffee
WARNING:
- Capsules are single-dose and can not be used to make two coffees
- Remember to clean the drip tray and empty the used capsule container
- Remember to replace the water in the water tank frequently
The X8 machine is designed to function exclusively with “Metodo Iperespresso” capsules
Make sure that the temperature LED is blue and lit solidly
Place a cup under the coffee group . Unlock and lift the opening lever of the capsule compartment until the cap-
sule is ejected and the empty capsule holder falls back to its normal position (if the holder contains a capsule, it
will be expelled and dropped into the used capsule container)
Insert the capsule as shown in the picture and make sure that it is inserted correctly
Lower the lever completely to close the compartment . Rotate the selector knob clockwise; the device com-
pletes the pre-infusion and then coffee is delivered . When the coffee has reached the desired level, stop the de-
livery by moving back the selector knob into the central position
Note: the capsule must slide easily into the compartment; if this is not the case, change capsule

lowed by a pause) lasting about 3 seconds and a second phase for brewing
