Preparation
With your espresso maker you can prepare two different quantities of espresso, just depending on your
personal desire.
- Without the reducing filter insert you will get the maximum quantity of espresso.
- With the reducing filter insert, there will be a smaller quantity of espresso.
Full amount of cups
(6 or 4 cups)
1) Fill water into the water container (10) up to the “6” or ”4” mark.
2) Take the 6-cup or 4-cup filter funnel (9) and fill it brimful, but loosely, with ground espresso powder
(no ordinary coffee powder!!). Just
smooth out the filling and do not press it into the filter on any
account
!
3) Insert the filled funnel in the water container.
4) Remove any powder residues from the rim in order for the seal to close perfectly.
5) Tightly screw together the upper vessel (3) and the water container (10) to prevent the escaping of
steam.
Do not hold the coffee maker at the handle when doing so. Make sure the upper vessel is not put on
canted but straight.
6) Put the can on the power base (14) and connect the plug to the electrical outlet.
7) By pressing down the ON/OFF switch (12) the espresso maker is turned on. The indicator light in the
switch glows.
8) Do not open the cover until the cooking process is finished.
9) When the espresso is ready the ON/OFF switch (12) snaps back into the starting position, the
indicator light goes out and the appliance switches off automatically.
10) Disconnect the mains plug.
11) Now you can serve the espresso.
Caution:
Touch the espresso maker only on the heat-insulated handle!
12) If you would like to prepare another supply of espresso, let the appliance cool and then start with the
preparation again.
Attention:
The appliance is under pressure when hot! Do not separate water container from coffee
container before cooled down!
Reduced amount of cups
(3 or 2 cups)
1) Fill water into the water container (10) up to the “3” or “2” mark.
2) Take the 6-cup or 4-cup filter funnel (9) and place the additional 3-cup or 2-cup filter insert (8) in it.
Then fill it brimful, but loosely, with ground espresso powder (no ordinary coffee powder!!).
Just
smooth out the filling and do not press it into the filter on any account
!
3) Then proceed as per the preparation of 6 or 4 cups, starting from point 3).
Some tips:
• Perfect espresso is served and enjoyed in well preheated espresso cups!
• Since the coffee is served directly from the appliance, slightly sway it before pouring out in order to
grant an equal consistence of the espresso.
