HELPFUL TIPS

Use of freshly roasted coffee is recommended. Contact your coffee roaster for advice. The freshness of the coffee only lasts several weeks after roasting. Good packaging can improve and prolong the flavour of the coffee. If you are unsure of the quality of the packaging, choose a recently roasted coffee. Coffee must always be ground just before it is prepared.

What coffee should you choose?

• For an aromatic coffee Choose pure Arabica coffees or those composed mostly of Arabica coffee. Artisan roasted coffees are preferred as they lend a better complexity and delicateness to the flavour. For a variety of flavours, try pure origin coffees.
• For an intense coffee Choose coffees blended with Robusta – not specifically 100% Arabica – or Italian-roasted coffees or specific Italian-flavoured coffees.
• Keep the ground coffee in the fridge as this will lock in the flavour for longer.
• Do not fill your filter holder to the brim; use the measuring spoon (1 spoon for a 50 ml cup, 2 spoons for 2 x 50 ml cups). Clean off any excess coffee from around the filter holder.
• If you have not used the appliance for more than 5 days, empty and rinse the water tank.
• Always make sure the appliance is switched off before removing the tank to fill it or empty it.
• Always ensure the appliance is positioned on a flat and stable surface.

FIRST USE OR IF THE MACHINE HAS NOT BEEN USED FOR A LONG PERIOD

IMPORTANT! do not place heating elements on the appliance.
IMPORTANT! Remove the red protective cap from under the water tank.
IMPORTANT! the safety instructions are part of the appliance. Please read them carefully before using your new appliance.

RINSING THE SYSTEMS BEFORE FIRST USE

RINSING THE ESPRESSO SYSTEM
To ensure your first cup of coffee tastes great, we strongly recommend that you rinse the espresso machine with hot water, as instructed below:

Ensure you have removed the red protective cap from under the water tank (1).

• Remove the water tank (A) and fill it. The water level should not exceed the “MAX” mark on the tank and should contain at least 300 ml (= equivalent to 2 large cups (2-3). Then replace the water tank, ensuring that the cover is closed. (4).
• Plug in your machine. (5).
• Press the On button (C)(6). On the control panel (D), the “On” indicator light switches on (D2) (7).
• The selection button (D.1) must be set to the espresso position – (button not depressed) (D.1.1) (8).
• Place a filter without coffee (F1) into the filter holder (F) (9). Slot the filter holder into place (E) and turn it to the right until it stops (10). Place a receptacle under the filter holder (11).
• When the espresso preheating indicator light (D2.1) stops flashing and stays on turn the thumb wheel (D.3) to the left, to espresso preparation (D.3.2) (12-13) – The flow will start after approximately ten seconds.
• Let approximately 300 ml of water trickle out (change the receptacle if necessary) (14), then turn the thumb wheel to position O (D.3.1) to stop preparation (15).
• IMPORTANT / After 25 minutes of disuse, your appliance will switch off automatically as a safeguard.

RINSING THE STEAM SYSTEM
Remove the water tank and fill it. The water level should not exceed the “MAX” mark on the tank and should contain at least 300 ml (= equivalent to 2 large cups). Then replace the water tank, ensuring that the cover is closed. The selection button (D.1) must be set to the steam position (button depressed) (D.1.2) (16) Place the nozzle into a container filled with water (G.1) (17). When the steam preheating indicator light (D2.2) stops flashing and stays on (18), turn the thumb wheel (D.3) to the right, to the steam function (D.3.3) (19). Let the water heat for 20 seconds (20) then turn the thumb wheel to position O (D.3.1) to stop the steam (21). Return the selection button (D.1) to the espresso position (D.1.1) (26).

MAKING ESPRESSO

IMPORTANT!
If the espresso function is used for the first time, the appliance must be cleaned as described in the “FIRST USE” paragraph.
IMPORTANT! To prevent splashes of hot water, check that the filter holder has been tightened until it stops before preparing the coffee. Do not remove the filter holder while the water is flowing, as the appliance is still under pressure.

With ground coffee

The type of coffee you choose will determine the strength and taste of your espresso: the finer your ground coffee, the more intense your espresso will be.

• Fill the water tank with tepid water and refit it on the appliance, making sure that it is correctly in place.
• Plugin your machine.
• For the best result, we recommend preheating the accessories beforehand (filter holder, filter and cups) by following the steps above, without adding coffee.
• Turn on the appliance by pressing the On/Off button.
• The “On” indicator light will switch on.
• Add the ground coffee to the 1 cup filter using the measuring spoon (K) (1 spoon = 1 measure = 1 espresso) (22-23) then pack it using the tamper, turning it using a circular motion (K) (24). Once packed, the coffee measure should not exceed the MAX level (25).
• For best quality, pack the coffee effectively.
• Clean off any excess coffee from around the filter holder.
• Ensure that the selection button is set to the espresso position (button not depressed) (26).
• Slot the filter holder into place then turn it to the right until it stops (27).
• The thumb wheel is set to function O. The espresso preheating indicator light flashes which indicates that preheating is in progress. Once preheating has finished, the espresso indicator light stays on (28).
• Place a cup under the filter holder and turn the thumb wheel to the left, to the espresso position, and the coffee will start to flow (29-30).
• When the cup is filled, turn the thumb wheel to position O to stop the flow (31).
• Remove the cup(s).
• Unlock the filter holder by turning it to the left (32) and remove it from the appliance. Do not touch the filter as it will be hot.
• To empty out the coffee, invert the filter holder while holding the filter with the flap so that only the coffee falls away (33).
• Wash the filter and filter holder under running water to remove the rest of the coffee (34).
• To make 2 espressos, take the 2 cup filter (F.2) and add 2 measures of ground coffee.
• To change the filter in the filter holder, ensure that the filter is positioned with the slot facing the lever of the handle.
• IMPORTANT / The coffee flow is stopped manually. Do not move away from the machine when it is in use.

STEAM FUNCTION

The steam will foam the coffee (for example, when making cappuccinos).

• Plug in your machine.
• Remove the water tank and fill it. The water level should not exceed the “MAX” mark on the tank and should contain at least 300 ml. Then replace the water tank, ensuring that the cover is closed.
• Press the “On” button; the indicator light switches on.
• Press the selection button to activate the steam function (button depressed) (35) .
• The thumb wheel is set to function O. The steam preheating indicator light flashes which indicates that preheating is in progress. Once preheating has finished, the steam indicator light stays on (36).
• Place an empty receptacle or cup underneath the nozzle (37).
• Open the nozzle system by turning the thumb wheel to the right, to the steam preparation function, to run the water through the system before the steam begins. (D.3.3) (38).
• Turn the thumb wheel to program O (39).
• To make a cappuccino, fill a container with approximately 60 to 100 ml of milk. For best results, use a narrow and relatively small container that can be slipped under the steam nozzle (G) (40). For best results, the milk and container should be very cold.’
• Place the nozzle into the container of milk and turn the thumb wheel to the right, to the steam position.
• For best results, foam the milk near the bottom of the container for approximately 10 seconds, taking care not to touch the bottom. Then slowly tilt the container and move thenozzle upwards until it is almost at the surface of the milk. Make sure that the nozzle does not leave the milk. To get a great foam, move the container in circular motions.
• To get the best foam, we recommend using pasteurised or UHT milk, and to avoid using non-pasteurised or skimmed milk.
• Once you have achieved the best foam, turn the thumb wheel to position O (41)
• To prevent overheating the milk, do not use the steamer for more than 45 seconds (for 100 ml of milk).
• You can start making an espresso by following the steps detailed above.
• To prevent milk from drying inside the nozzle, please clean it after each use. To do this, follow the steps for foaming the milk, replacing 100 ml of milk with 60 ml of water. To avoid burning yourself, remove the nozzle from the foam (G.1) and wash it in clean water (42). Clean the steam nozzle using a damp cloth (G) (43).
• Remove the drip tray, empty it and clean it using clean water (44-45).
• Refer to the next section for manual cleaning.

GOOD TO KNOW – PRACTISE AFTER USING STEAM
If you want to make espresso after using the steam function, you need to cool down your coffee machine because the water is too hot for optimum espresso preparation.
Follow the steps below:

• Make sure the knob is on position O.
• Selection button on espresso position (button not depressed).
• The red indicator light switches on indicating the coffee machine is too hot for espresso preparation.
• Immerse the steam nozzle completely in a container filled with water.
• Turn the knob to the right (steam position) to release the hot water and steam inside the boiler, to cool down the machine, until red light is off.
• After around 10 to 20sec, you will see the red light switches off and the espresso light switches on. That indicates the machine is cooled down to the right temperature for espresso preparation.
• Turn the knob to O position to stop the steam. If the red light is still on, repeat the above steps.

Your coffee machine is now cooled down, you can make and enjoy your espresso !

IMPORTANT! If you want to make a coffee after frothing milk, you should turn the knob to the espresso position and then set the selection button to the espresso position. After few seconds, the coffee indicator will turn off. Turn the thumb wheel to function O and wait until the coffee indicator lights up. During this operation, if the coffee and steam indicator lights are switched on at the same time, repeat the steps above.

IMPORTANT!
Warning! To prevent the milk from spattering, do not lift the nozzle out of the milk when using “steam” mode.

IMPORTANT!
Warning! The steam nozzle is still hot! Be careful you do not burn yourself!

IMPORTANT! After switching off the steam function, clean the nozzle immediately and carefully, as set out in the section:
