Alex Espresso Machine

First Time Set Up – Reservoir Mode – Continued
 Pull the drip tray out to expose the 2 switches shown in the picture below. Make sure
the lever on the right is in the RESERVOIR position and the Alarm switch is also ON.
 Before plugging the machine in, verify the steam and hot water knobs are closed and
the brew lever should be pointing straight down.
 Plug the machine into a 3 prong 120V grounded outlet. A resettable GFCI outlet is
strongly recommended, but is not necessary.
 Turn the power switch to the on position. The pump will come on to start filling the
boiler. Whenever the boiler fills the PID display will turn off to protect the heating
element. After the pump has turned off then raise the brew lever until you have water
coming out of the group head and then lower the lever.

After filling the boiler then remove the reservoir to refill with water and return it to the
machine. An audible alert will sound and the PID display will turn off whenever the water
level in the reservoir gets low to indicate it needs to be refilled.
 Place whichever portafilter you intend to use into the grouphead so that it will heat up
with the machine. It is also recommended that you keep your cups on the top cup
warming tray to keep them warm. When making espresso if the portafilter or cups are
not hot then it will cool down the shot and make it taste sour.

The machine should reach temperature in approximately 15 minutes, but to make
delicious espresso with thick rich crema it is necessary to allow the machine to be
heated for 30-45 minutes with the portafilter kept in the grouphead.

Note:
During heat up a small amount of water and steam will be discharged into the drip
tray which is normal and no cause for concern.
