The coffee should be a freshly ground, dark, espresso roast variety. You may buy
whole coffee beans and grind them yourself at home using a MR. COFFEE
® Burr Mill
or a MR. COFFEE ® Bean Grinder. Store whole beans in an air-tight container, in a cool,
dark area. You do not need to store them in a refrigerator or freezer. If you buy pre-ground
coffee, plan to use the coffee within 7 to 8 days for best flavor. Store pre-ground coffee
in an air-tight container and keep in a cool, dark area.

RIND
This is a vital step in the espresso making process. The coffee must be ground fine,
but not too fine. If you buy pre-ground coffee or have it ground, make sure you get an
espresso grind.
• The correct grind should look gritty, like salt or sand.
• If the grind is too fine, water will not flow through the coffee, even under pressure.
Coffee that is ground too fine looks like powder and feels like flour when rubbed
between your fingers.
• If the grind is too coarse, water flows through the coffee too fast, preventing a
full-flavored extraction.
• If using coffee pods, make sure they are standard size, single shot 7g/45mm coffee
pods manufactured for espresso machines. The ECMP40 DOES NOT accommodate
single shot 7g/55mm pods nor double shot 14g/55mm pods.

ROCESS
Your New MR. COFFEE ® Espresso and Cappuccino Maker was designed to make brewing
fresh espresso and cappuccino at home easy. Several hints will help you make quality
espresso and frothed milk drinks time after time. First, always start with fresh, cold water
in the water reservoir. Be sure that all parts of your machine are cleaned from previous uses.
You can preheat the cups you brew espresso into by rinsing them with hot water.
This will help keep your espresso hot after it is brewed.
The quality, roast, freshness, grind and origin of the coffee beans you use will vary the
taste of your espresso. When you brew espresso, the grounds should be “tamped” in the
filter cup. Tamping is the process of slightly packing the espresso coffee grounds down in
the filter cup. Your MR. COFFEE
® Espresso/Cappuccino Machine comes with a pre-measured
coffee scoop tamping tool.

OTE
:
Do not overpack the grounds. If you are using coffee
pods, do not tamp, just insert the coffee pod in the pod adapter within the filter holder.
