MAKING ESPRESSO
IMPORTANT!
If the espresso function is used for the rst time, the appliance must be
cleaned as described in the “FIRST USE” paragraph.
IMPORTANT! To prevent splashes of hot water, check that the lter holder
has been tightened until it stops before preparing the coffee. Do not
remove the lter holder while the water is owing, as the appliance is still
under pressure.

The type of coffee you choose will determine the strength and taste of your espresso: the
ner your ground coffee, the more intense your espresso will be.

(K, 1 spoon = 1 measure = 1 espresso) (15, 16), then pack it using the tamper (17),
turning it using a circular motion. Once packed, the coffee measure should not exceed
the MAX level. For best quality, pack the coffee effectively. Clean off any excess coffee
from around the lter holder (18).
