Note:
Make sure to wipe off any excess ground espresso from the rim of the filter to ensure
a proper seal is achieved under the group head.
PURGE THE GROUP HEAD
Before inserting the portafilter, run some water through the group head. It will ensure
that your machine has a last minute ‘clean through’ and stabilizes the temperature prior
to extracting.
BREWING YOUR ESPRESSO
The most common mistake in brewing is to over extract from your ground espresso. This
results in a bitter beverage with visibly bleached crema. Crema is the caramel colored
layer that floats on top of the espresso following extraction.
Note:
The taste of your espresso will, of course, depend on personal preference and on
many other factors such as the type of coffee bean used, the coarseness or fineness of
the grind and the tamping pressure. We recommend experimenting by varying these
factors to achieve the espresso taste of your preference.
Note:
Always properly clean your machine after each use.
