5. Press the On/Off Power Switch to turn the espresso machine on.
6. Wait until the espresso machine has reached operating
temperature; this will take approximately 6 minutes. When the
espresso boiler temperature gauge needle climbs into the
“ready” zone, the espresso machine is ready to brew.
7. Remove the portafilter from the brew head by moving the
handle to the left. Place one level measure of ground coffee (or
a paper coffee pod) in the small filter basket, or two measures
of ground coffee in the large basket. Be sure to use a fine
espresso-style grind for your coffee.
8. Using the tamper, tamp the coffee down firmly with a twisting
motion. Make sure the surface of the coffee is as level as
possible. See “Leveling” and “Tamping” on page 32 and 33
for details.
9. Sweep any excess grinds from the rim of the portafilter, and
insert the portafilter into the brew head.
10. Place one or two espresso cups on the drip plate under the
spouts of the portafilter. Press the Espresso Button, and
espresso will start to flow into cups. When the desired
amount of espresso has been brewed (usually 1 oz. using the
small filter basket and 2 oz. using the large filter basket),
press the Espresso Button to stop brewing.
NOTE: Do not remove the portafilter when brewing.
11. The espresso machine is equipped with a 3-way solenoid valve
that instantly releases pressure in the brew group when the
water pump is switched off, so the portafilter can be
removed immediately after brewing. Remove the portafilter by
moving the handle to the left. When knocking coffee grounds
from the filter basket, avoid striking the portafilter handle.
