8). 4. Open the steam knob (fig. 9). Wait until all steam is released. 6 5. Turn the power switch off (fig. 6). 6. Open and remove the boiler cap (see chapter 5) 7. It is now safe to remove the filter holder. 8. Move the coffee/steam selector to the cup symbol (fig. 8). Caution: Never try to remove the filter holder with the carafe in place. Pressure could force the filter holder down, smashing the carafe and causing severe injuries. Always remove the carafe first. Caution: Never leave machine unattended when it is turned on (red light in the power switch is illuminated). Always turn the machine off when finished. 4. BEFORE INITIAL USE Carefully unpack your machine and remove all packing materials. Wipe the machine with a damp cloth. Clean the filter holder, the basket and the carafe with water and wipe dry. The filter holder, the basket, the glass carafe and lid are dishwasher safe (upper rack, away from any heating element). Caution: Do not immerse the machine in water or any other liquid. The boiler cap is not dishwasher safe. Make yourself familiar with the various parts: insert the basket into the filter holder (fig. 2) and insert the filter holder into the machine (fig. 3). Open and close the boiler cap. Make sure the power cord is guided in the back slot so the machine sits firmly and flat on an even surface. 5. SAFETY BOILER CAP To open the boiler cap: turn the cap a quarter turn counter clockwise. Slightly lift the cap and turn another quarter turn counter clockwise and lift the cap. To close the boiler cap: Place the cap onto the boiler neck and turn clockwise until cap sinks into the groove. Continue turning the cap until firmly locked. 6. HELPFUL HINTS • Espresso Drink: An espresso is a far richer drink with a more intense taste than regular brewed drip coffee. An espresso is normally 1 1/2 to 2 oz. of strong coffee. Espresso should be served immediately after brewing. If the espresso is too strong, you can add hot water. Add sugar to taste. • Preparing espresso is different than preparing regular drip coffee. The machine works under pressure, bringing the water to a boil and then forcing it through the ground coffee in a short period of time. • Important: The water in the boiler of the machine will get hotter during the brewing process. Towards the end of the brewing process the water will be so hot that it would burn your espresso. Therefore you never want to process all the water through the coffee as this will result in a burnt taste. • Which Coffee? Any coffee labeled "espresso" is suitable for your machine. Any coffee with at least 80% Arabica beans is ideal for espresso preparation. Check with your local coffee store. • Which Grind? Steam boiler espresso machines, do not require a fine espresso grind. For maximum flavor and aroma we recommend a medium espresso grind or a fine drip grind. If you grind your own coffee we recommend using a burr or disk/burr grinder. Small blade grinders can create "coffee dust". Coffee dust can dramatically slow down the water flow during brewing resulting in bitter and overheated coffee taste. • Cappuccino: 1 1/2 to 2 oz. of espresso coffee with 3 to 4 oz. of steamed and frothed milk on top. Sprinkle chocolate shavings or cinnamon on top of 7 the milk froth. For a stronger taste increase the amount of coffee. For a milder taste increase the amount of milk. • Latte: 1 1/2 to 2 oz. of espresso coffee with 3 to 4 oz. of steamed milk (very little or no milk froth). • Frothing: Foamy layer of milk froth on top of hot milk. • Which kind of milk? Skim milk and 1% milk will produce more milk froth than 2% or regular milk. • Markings on Glass Carafe: The markings on the glass carafe help you in the preparation of brewing and frothing. Upper rim of metal band: Maximum capacity of boiler (approx. 10 oz.). For best results always fill the boiler with 10 oz. of fresh cold water. 4 cup marking: Maximum amount of espresso you should brew (approx. 8 oz.). If you brew more than 8 oz. the coffee will taste burnt. Depending on the coffee roast you might even want to brew a little less to avoid a bitter aroma. 2 cup marking: (approx. 4 oz.), guide line for a double shot of espresso. Bottom line marking: Once the coffee has reached this level there is enough pressure in the boiler for steaming and frothing. 7. PREPARING ESPRESSO Caution: Do not leave the machine alone during brewing. Keep children away during brewing. 1. Make sure the machine is plugged in and turned off. The glass carafe is removed from the drip tray. Important: The steam knob (fig. 9) must be in the closed position. The coffee/steam selector points to the cup symbol in front of the machine (stronger coffee). Moving the coffee/steam selector to the right, accelerates brewing and decreases coffee strength. 2. Fill the basket with ground coffee, using the measuring scoop (fig.1). The basket is marked on the inside indicating "2 cups" and "4 cups". Never overfill the basket. Clear any excess coffee from the rim o...
