INTRODUCTION TO ESPRESSO

Mr. Coffee® One-Touch CoffeeHouse + has been designed to help you prepare delicious espressos, cappuccinos and lattes quickly, conveniently, and automatically with the touch of a button.
ESPRESSO
A unique method of coffee brewing in which hot water is forced through finely ground coffee. Popular in Europe, it is a far richer and more full-bodied brew than regular drip coffee. Because of its richness, espresso is usually served in 45 to 60 ml (1.5 to 2 oz.) portions, in demitasse cups.
CAPPUCCINO
A drink made with about 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk, and 1/3 frothed milk.
LATTE
A drink made with about 1/4 espresso and 3/4 steamed milk.
Please read ALL of the instructions, cautions, notes and warnings included in this instruction manual carefully before you begin to use this appliance. When this unit is used, some parts and accessories get hot and need to cool down.
Proper care and maintenance will ensure the long life of the Mr. Coffee® OneTouch CoffeeHouse + and its trouble-free operation. Save these instructions and refer to them often for cleaning and care tips. Your Mr. Coffee® One-Touch CoffeeHouse + can be  sed with ground coffee as well as E.S.E. pods (45 mm), making it exceptionally practical and versatile to prepare single shots of espresso, cappuccino and latte.
BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME
CLEANING THE UNIT PRIOR TO FIRST USE
Please refer to the “Get to know your espresso, cappuccino & latte maker” section to familiarise yourself with the product and identify all parts.

  1. Please make sure the unit is off “O” by pressing the on/off “I/O” switch located on the right side of the unit. Make sure it is unplugged from the electrical outlet.
  2. Remove stickers and labels from the unit.
  3. Remove red plug from the bottom of the water reservoir.
  4. First remove and then wash the water reservoir, the milk reservoir, the porta-filter, the two filters and measuring scoop/tamper in a mixture of mild detergent and water. Rinse each thoroughly and place them back into the unit.
  5. Refer to the instructions on “PLACING THE PORTA-FILTER” section before placing or removing the porta-filter and any filter from the unit.
  6. To clean the inside of the appliance, follow the steps listed on the “PREPARING CAPPUCCINO” section using water in both reservoirs and no ground coffee in the filter. Do not immerse the main body of the appliance or power cord and plug in water or attempt to reach any of its internal parts.

IMPORTANT – PRIME THE UNIT
To prime unit, run the steam cycle by following the steps below:

  1. Fill water reservoir up to the “MAX” line and make sure to place the water reservoir tightly back in the unit with its lid closed.
  2. Fill the milk reservoir with water up to the MAX level and slide the milk reservoir back in its place. You should feel the milk reservoir lock in place.
  3. Select one of the filters (single or double espresso) and place it in the portafilter for ground coffee. Place the porta-filter in the unit ensuring it is properly locked and place a large cup under it. Also, make sure the tip of the frothed milk dispensing tube is  ointing inside the cup.
  4. Plug the appliance into the appropriate outlet.
  5. Turn the power button on “I”.
  6. The control panel progress bar will illuminate (Espresso heater and Steam heater “ ”) showing the progress. Once the progress bar is a fully illuminated and solid light, press the manual espresso button “ ”. The water will flow, allow to fill a cup, then stop by pressing the button again. The progress bar illumination will cycle whilst operating.
  7. Dispose of the water in the cup and place it back in the unit.
  8. Press the manual froth button “ ”. The water will flow, allow to fill a cup, then stop by pressing the button again. The progress bar illumination will cycle whilst operating.
  9. The control panel progress bar will illuminate (Espresso heater and Steam heater “ ”) will turn into a solid light. Now your unit has been primed and is ready to be used.

HOW TO SELECT THE RIGHT CUP
Please make sure to select your cup according to the following chart:

BEVERAGE SUGGESTED CUP
Espresso Single (1) Double (2)

80m1/2.5oz
Capnurcino| Small (1)
Large (2)| 230m1/7.5oz
460m1/15.5oz
Latte| Small (1)
Large (2)| 400m1/13.5oz
550m1/18.5oz

NOTE: The total amount of the beverage can vary depending on the type of milk and level of froth used.

SELECTING THE RIGHT COFFEE

THE COFFEE
The coffee should be freshly ground and dark roasted. You may want to try a French or Italian roast ground for espresso. Pre-ground coffee will only retain its flavour for 7 – 8 days, provided it is stored in an airtight container and in a cool, dark area. Do not store in a refrigerator or freezer. Whole beans are recommended to be ground just before use. Coffee beans stored in an airtight container will preserve flavour for up to 4 weeks.
THE GRIND
This is a vital step in the espresso making process if you are grinding your own coffee. It may require practice. The coffee must be of a fine grind.

  • The correct grind should look like table salt.
  • If the grind is too fine, the water will not flow through the coffee even under high pressure. These grinds look like powder and feel like flour when rubbed between fingers.
  • If the grind is too coarse, the water flows through the coffee too fast, preventing a full-flavored extraction. Be sure to use a quality grinder for uniform consistency.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

FILLING THE WATER RESERVOIR

  1. Fill the water reservoir with water (see figure 1). You may use either a pitcher to fill it up or remove it from the unit and then fill it up under the tap. Fill the reservoir with the desired amount of water below the “MAX” level on the reservoir. Never use warm or hot water to fill the water reservoir.
  2. Close the water reservoir lid. If you removed it from the unit to fill up with water, please make sure to place it back tightly in its place.

FILLING THE MILK RESERVOIR
If you plan to prepare a cappuccino or latte, remove the milk reservoir from the unit by lifting up on the milk reservoir release button, simultaneously sliding milk reservoir out (see figure 2). Then, pour the desired quantity of cold milk you estimate you will need, making sure it is below the “MAX” level on the reservoir (see figure 3). Once finished, slide the milk reservoir back onto the unit ensuring it fits tightly. You should feel the milk reservoir lock in place.
