PREPARING THE ESPRESSO 1. Remove the filter holder and fill the filter with coffee grounds using the Measure Scoop provided with the machine. Note : Add one measuring spoon of coffee grounds (we recommend 14g) for each cup.
HOW TO USE Tips: You could control the brewing coffee volume according to your demand. Recommend volume: brewing 15~16s for 1 cup (appr. 40g), brewing 30~32s for 2 cups (appr.80g). To brew another cup of espresso, slowly and carefully remove the Filter holder, moving it to the left. Be careful not to burn yourself with the water left on the coffee grounds. Once the Filter holder has been removed, some water will still drip. This is due to the water pressure in the system.
HOW TO USE 2. Insert the Filter holder into the Brew unit with a 45° movement to the left and turn it to the right to lock it in place. The Filter holder handle must be perpendicular to the machine or slightly tilted towards the right. 3. Wait until the Temperature ready indicator light turns blue. 4. Press the Espresso button. The machine will start brewing. 5. Stop the brewing process when the cup is 1/3 full (about 30-40ml/1 fl.oz) by pressing the Espresso button again.

HOW TO USE 6. Once the desired frothing has been achieved, the steam nozzle must be pushed deeper to heat the milk well. Tips: It is advisable to always keep a hand on the rounded part of the jug to feel the temperature increase of the unfrothed milk. 7.
