HOW TO CHOOSE AND INSERT THE PORTAFILER BASKET
To insert the basket into the portafilter, simply drop the basket into it.
Use the smaller basket for a single shot of espresso.
Use the larger basket for either when making a larger size drink or to have a double dose
of espresso in a smaller size drink or.
HOW TO PACK THE PORTAFILTER WITH COFFEE
1.
Use the coffee measuring spoon to fill the basket with finely ground espresso beans
(do not overfill).
2.
Using the tamper end of the measuring spoon, press on the grinds firmly and evenly.
Be sure the surface is smooth and flat.
3.
Clean any excess grinds from the rim of the portafilter to ensure proper fit in the brew
head.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT THE COFFEE AND GRIND
For best results, use freshly ground espresso beans as pre-ground beans lose their flavor
fast. The grind should be fine, like table salt. If the grind is too fine (it will feel powdery
when rubbed between fingers), the water will not flow through even under pressure. If the
grind is too coarse, the water will flow through too fast, resulting in a weak flavor. Finding
your preferred grind may take some practice.
HOW TO FILL THE WATER RESERVOIR
To fill the reservoir with water, you may either use a jar to fill
it while on the unit or remove it from the unit and to fill it up
at the sink. Open the lid and fill the reservoir with the desired
amount of cold water between the “Min” and “Max” markings
on the tank. Never use warm or hot water to fill the water
reservoir. Close the water reservoir lid and place it back in the
unit, if necessary, ensuring it fits tightly in place.
HOW TO FILL THE MILK RESERVOIR
If you plan to prepare cappuccino or latte, you will need to fill
the milk reservoir; it can be left empty or even off the unit for
espresso.
To remove the milk reservoir from the unit, tilt it up before
pulling it out. Fill it with cold milk to between the “Min” and
“Max” markings on the tank. To put the milk reservoir back
on the unit, tilt it down before sliding it firmly back into place.
NOTE: You can use any type of milk—whole, skim, soy, oat—
to make froth.
