1. INTRODUCTION
Dear customer, congratulations for wisely choosing BRIEL!
We have created this Instructions and Recommendations Manual so that you can find out about... THE REAL ESPRESSO.
Would you like an Espresso? You can now enjoy it in the comfort of your home, alone or with friends. This is BRIEL's invitation.
The velvety cream on the surface is the main characteristic of a wonderful Espresso, which must be served in small cups right after the
preparation. Unlike what many people seem to think, this type of coffee is not stronger than the regular one; it is even softer, due to its
preparation method. Espresso coffee is made by rapidly forcing water that has been heated to the correct brewing temperature through
a special finely ground coffee or coffee pod. The pump and the water flow are easily controlled with the button or switch.
This is an Espresso: a different way of getting pleasure from ground coffee, invented in Europe in the beginning of the 20th century,
which now BRIEL brings to you. Making Espresso or Cappuccino is very different from using a conventional coffee maker. The
Espresso maker operates with pressure and steam - it is, therefore, important to read all the instructions before using it.
