Useful Advice
You can use the device just to make hot water for other uses (for other
types of food, drinks, or cleaning tasks) in the same fashion that you use it
to make espresso coffee. Just use the machine with the same ways as
described above but add no coffee in the stainless steel mesh (15 or 16)
you use.
Pressure applied with tamper (17) will have a direct effect on the final
result. Small pressure will make the coffee flow easier, have a lighter color
and taste while the opposite results will be produced when the pressure is
larger.
Attention: do not apply too much pressure with the tamper (17)
as this may spoil the coffee’s final taste.
If you see the green light (5) switching off during the coffee flow, this
means that the temperature of the coffee produced had been significantly
reduced.
To avoid possible leaks from the area where the funnel handle (13)
attaches on the machine it is necessary to clean regularly any local
remnants of coffee.
Attention:
this area might be too hot.
