Coffee
The coffee should be freshly ground and dark roasted. You may want to try a French or Italian
roast ground for espresso. Pre-ground coffee will only retain its flavour for 7–8 days, provided
it is stored in an airtight container and in a cool, dark area. Do not store in a refrigerator or
freezer. Whole beans are recommended to be ground just before use. Coffee beans stored in
an airtight container will retain their flavour for up to 4 weeks.
Coffee grinding
This is a vital step in the espresso-making process if you are grinding your own coffee and
takes practice. The coffee must be of a fine grind. The correct grind should look like salt. If
coffee is ground too finely, water will not filter through it, even at a higher pressure. These
grinds look like powder and feel like flour when rubbed between fingers.
If ground too coarsely, water will pass through the beans too quickly, preventing the coffee
from being extracted to the maximum for top flavour. Be sure to use a quality grinder for
uniform consistency.
Filling the water tank
Remove the water tank, fill it up with water. Fill the tank above the "Min." and below the "Max."
marks on the tank. Then, place the tank back in its correct position and make sure it is properly
fixed.
Note:
Never use warm or hot water to fill the water tank.
Filling the milk tank
Remove the milk tank and open the cover. Fill the tank with cold milk above the "Min" mark. and
below the "Max." marks on the tank. Once it is full, close it again and place it back in its correct
position making sure it is properly fixed.
Note:
The device is suitable for whole milk, low-fat milk, organic, soy milk, etc. However, it is
suggested to use whole milk for optimum results.
