coffee cups can be warmed by placing them upside
down on the cup warming plate.
Preparing an Espresso:
-Place one or two pre-heated cups below the pouring
spouts.
-Turn the operating dial to the espresso setting. You
will hear the machine making a pumping noise, this is
normal.
Once the cup/s are filled to the desired level, turn the
operating dial to the off (O) position
Remove the filter holder and the filter by turning the filter
holder handle to the left.
To remove the used coffee grinds from the filter, simply
turn the group handle upside down in a bin and gently
tap out the coffee.
-After each use of the espresso machine for best result
when making consecutive cups of espresso, we recom-
mend that you flush a small amount of water through
the machine with the filter holder already removed from
the brewing head. Simply turn the operating dial to the
espresso setting and allow the water to run through until
you have a consistent flow of water. This will wash out
any old or used coffee grinds stuck to underside of the
brewing head and also help ensure the correct water
temperature for your next shot of espresso.
Note: Do not leave the filter holder locked in position for
extended periods, or when machine is not in use. This
shorten the life of brew head rubber seal.
Obtaining steam
The steam function can be used for frothing milk.
Important: There is risk of scalding when the steam
nozzle is in use. Hot water or hot steam can cause
scalding. Only use the steam wand when it is immersed
in the milk.
-Fill the water reservoir with cold water and start the unit.
-Position the steam wand so that the tip is over the drip
tray.
-Turn the dial to the steam position. Some water will
come out to the steam wand. Once steam start to come
out turn the dial to the off (O) position.
-Swing the steam nozzle to the side of the machine.
Pour cold milk into a stainless steel jug no more than
1/3 full.
Tips: For best results, we recommend using refrigerated
milk and a stainless steel jug that is well chilled. Be sure
not to rinse the jug with warm water before use.
-Hold the jug under the steam wand so that the nozzle
opening is completely immersed in the milk. Turn the
operating dial to the steam setting to activate the steam
and commence texturing milk.
-Angle jug so the steam wand is resting on the spout of
the jug and position the tip of the steam wand just below
the surface of the milk.
Note: The nozzle must not touch the bottom of the jug to
ensure that the steam release is not obstructed.
-Move the jug so that the steam wand is in the centre,
this is will create a whirlpool motion to the milk. As the
steam heats the milk, the milk will begins to rise. Follow
the level of the milk by lowering the jug, always keeping
the tip of the steam nozzle just below the surface.
When the milk is ate temperature close the steam by
turning the dial to the off (O) position.
Note: Do not boil the milk.
