WARNINGS ON HOW TO USE THE ESPRESSO MAKER:

1. Please note it is very important to use thick grinded coffee (especially used for espresso makers) and not typical coffee powder. If it is used coffee powder, the coffee will block the funnel and the process of releasing the pressure will be affected and it may cause some problems, such as “spraying out” the residues and noisy sound when removing the funnel. Also, the taste of the beverage will not be the best one.
2.  After the appliance stops pouring the coffee, please do not remove immediately the funnel and wait for a couple of seconds (around one minute) until the whole pressure inside is released, otherwise the coffee powder residue will be “sprayed out” in a violent way that can be very disturbing. The effect of explosion will occur.
3. Make sure that the funnel is correctly installed, otherwise the pressure will be released during operation. The effect of explosion will be the same as above-mentioned.
