SELECTING THE RIGHT CUP
Before preparing your beverage, please make sure to select the right cup size according to the following table:
Caffé Barista Ratios
Espresso| Single Double| 60 ml (2oz) 119 ml (4oz)
Cappuccino| Single Double| 178 ml (6oz) 355 ml (12oz)
Latte| Single Double| 296 ml (10oz) 474 ml (16oz)
SELECTING THE RIGHT COFFEE
HE 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 flavor 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 keep its flavor for up to 4 weeks.
THE GRIND
This is a vital step in the espresso making process if you are grinding your
own coffee and takes practice.The coffee must be of a fine grind.
The correct grind should look like salt.
If the grind is too fine, the water will not flow through the coffee even
under 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.

INTRODUCTION
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 44 to 59 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 Automatic Espresso, Cappuccino, and Latte Maker and its trouble-free operation. Save these instructions and refer to them often for cleaning and care tips.
CORRECT USE OF GROUND COFFEE FOR ESPRESSO MAKER
Do not use sugar roasted ground coffee or sugar roasted coffee beans as these will clog the filter and damage the appliance. If sugar roasted coffee is accidentally used, stop using the unit and bring it to the closest service center for maintenance. We recommend descaling the machine periodically to keep it in good working condition. Contact our service centers to learn about this process.
CLEANING THE MILK RESERVOIR AND FROTHING TUBE

Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, as they will scratch the finish. The milk reservoir is also dishwasher safe (top rack). Do not place the lid of the milk reservoir on the dishwasher.
- Place a large empty cup under the frothing tube.
- Press and hold the Latte/clean button for 3 seconds and then release it. The unit will start releasing steam through the frothing tube, let it run for a few seconds until you don’t see any milk in cup. When done press the Latte/ clean button once to stop the process.

- Do not store the porta-filter in the brew head. This can adversely affect the seal bet- ween the brew head and the porta-filter while brewing espresso. CAUTION: Do not immerse appliance in water.
DELIMING
Mineral deposits built-up in the unit will affect the operation of the
appliance. Your appliance must be delimed when you begin to notice an increase
in the time required to brew espresso, or when there is excessive steaming.
Also, you may notice a build-up of white deposits on the surface of the brew
head.
The frequency of cleaning depends upon the hardness of the water used. The
following table gives the suggested cleaning intervals.
