Notes on Coffee
This Espresso Maker uses ground powdered coffee which is available from most
good supermarkets and coffee retailers.
Do not use instant coffee or similar with this Espresso Maker.
Distance to the surface of pressed coffee powder should be about 3mm away from
the edge of the filter cup (important indicator). Too high or too low will affect the
extraction pressure and effect of coffee. Reduce or increase the amount of coffee
powder accordingly:

If the Steam Nozzle is blocked
