Using Your Kambrook Espresso Machine
Before First Use
Remove any packaging material and
promotional labels before using your
espresso machine for the first time.
Ensure you have removed all parts
and accessories before discarding the
packaging.
It is recommended before first use to
clean all the parts and accessories of
the espresso machine including the
water tank, portafilter, filter baskets,
combined measuring spoon and
coffee tamper, froth enhancer, and
milk frothing jug using warm water
and dishwashing liquid. Rinse well and
dry thoroughly.
Filling the water tank
1. Ensure the espresso machine
selector control is switched to
the ‘STANDBY’ mode and is
switched off at the power outlet
and unplugged prior to filling the
water tank.
2. Open the water reservoir lid
and holding onto the water
tank handle, remove the water
tank from the water reservoir
(see Fig.1).

3. Fill the water tank with cold water
to the ‘MAX’ level indicator line
marked on the water tank and
insert the tank back into the water
reservoir and push down until it sits
flush and firmly into place. Close
the water reservoir lid.
NOTE:
The water tank level should
be checked regularly with use.
Cold fresh water must be used to
fill the tank.
NOTE:
Do not use de-mineralised
or distilled water in this machine.
This will adversely affect the
machine’s operation and will
potentially impair the flavour of
your coffee.
WARNING:
Do not store
the espresso machine with
water in the water tank.
Always empty the tank
after use.
Pre-heating the machine
Prior to making your first coffee to
ensure the machine is pre-heated, for
optimum crema, it is recommended
to carry out a complete brewing
operation of your espresso machine;
using water only, without any ground
coffee in the portafilter.
1. Ensure the selector control is in the
‘STANDBY’ mode, plug the power
cord into a 230V or 240V power
point and switch ‘ON’ at the
power point.
