instruCtions For use
attention:
Do not pack coffee tightly. Do not fill more coffee than indicated by the
4-Cup marking. this might cause clogging or overflow (see section Problems &
Causes).
4. insert the filter holder to the machine. raise the filter holder up into brewing
head and turn the filter holder firmly to the right, until it can go no further. the
filter holder should be as far right in the lock range as possible. if the filter is not
at least in the middle of the lock range, do not operate the machine. rather,
remove the filter holder and reinsert it as described above until the filter is within
the lock rage (see figure 3).
Following this procedure will prevent the filter
holder from being dislodged as pressure builds up during the brewing
process.
5. unscrew the boiler cap (a) by turning it counter-clockwise (see figure 4).
6. using the glass carafe, fill the boiler chamber with fresh, cold water (see figure 5)
to the corresponding water level.
measuring Guidelines:
the glass carafe (i) has markings for 2 cups and 4 cups and
steaming. 2 cups of water yields 2 cups of espresso. 3 cups of water yields 2 cups
espresso, plus steam for frothing milk for cappuccino. 4 cups of water yields 4 cups
espresso. 5 1/2 cups of water is the upper rim of the metal band surrounding the
carafe.
CaUTion:
never fill the boiler chamber while your
Coffee Station
is in operation.
it should be in the off position. never pour more than 12 oz. of water into the boiler
chamber.
7. Place the boiler cap (a) on the machine and turn it clockwise until it is secure
(see figure 6).
8. next, place the carafe lid on the carafe (h) so that the opening points towards
the pouring spout on the carafe (see figure 7).
9. Position the carafe under the filter holder. make sure that the nozzle in the
filter holder points through the opening of the carafe lid (see figure 8).
attention:
make sure that the overflow grid (j) is in place.
10. to make espresso directly into the cups, snap the cup adapter (j) onto the filter
holder (see figure 9). Place cups directly under the two spouts (see figure 10).
11. now you are ready to make espresso. simply press the “espresso / Cappuccino”
button to turn on. (see figure 11). the on/off indicator light will illuminate. turn
the espresso strength control (c) to desired level. (see figure 12 & 13).
12. After approximately 2 minutes the water will have reached the proper
temperature. the water at this time will pass through the ground coffee,
producing espresso in the glass carafe or in the cups, whichever you choose.
13. once the espresso has stopped brewing, turn off the machine by depressing
the “espresso / Cappuccino” button. (see figure11). the control light will go out,
indicating that the machine is off.
14. Before you remove the filter holder for cleaning, make sure that the boiler is no
longer under pressure (see section CAution - Pressure).
