How to Use:
1. Unscrew your coffee maker and remove the funnel filter cup from bottom half.
2. Fill the bottom chamber with cold water up to the steam release valve.
3. Insert the funnel filter (cone) and fill it with espresso-ground coffee, smoothing it without
tamping or applying too much pressure.
4. Make sure the flat round filter plate and the rubber gasket are in place underneath the
central column of the upper part of the espresso maker. Do not use if espresso maker does
not have these pieces.
5. Screw the top on to the bottom piece.
6. Put it on the stovetop with enough heat to cover the bottom (medium heat), but not so that
it heats the handle. Make sure to not expose the handle to direct heat.
7. When you hear the espresso maker gurgling and the top part is 3/4 full, remove it from
the heat and allow it to sit for 30 seconds.
8. You can serve your coffee once the coffee maker stops boiling and gurgling. WARNING:
Coffee will be EXTREMELY hot.
Cleaning: Wait for product to cool completely before pouring water in or on it. Wash all the
parts with warm sudsy water & rinse thoroughly. Make sure the filter funnel holes are not
clogged. Regularly remove and wash the rubber gasket and round flat filter plate. When the
gasket dries or cracks, replace it. A telltale sign of a needed replacement gasket will be that some
steam will begin to escape from the screw threads between the top and bottom pieces of your
espresso maker.
