instructions for use with the ground coffee adapter
1 If the pod adapter is mounted, remove it by inserting a coin in its
central slot and twisting it counterclockwise.
2 Check rst that the infusion button is up.
3 Unlock the pump by twisting the handle 90°.
4 Pump up to 16 bar (green zone), and lock the pump by twisting
the handle 90°. Beware not to reach the red zone (over 16 bar)! To
make pumping easier, place your hands as on the illustration.
5 Turn round the machine so you have the portalter in front of you.
6 Remove the portalter by unscrewing it 60° counterclockwise.
7 Remove the ground coffee adapter from the machine by inserting
your nger-ends in one of the three appropriate notches.
8 Prepare your coffee dose by lling the ground coffee adapter
evenly with the espresso coffee of your choice. Please check that
the coffee does not exceed the upper edge of the ground coffee
adapter. Please refer to « some useful recommendations » on p. 12
to optimise the lling and the tamping of the ground coffee adapter.
9 Pour hot water from a kettle or a thermos ask, in the reservoir,
through the lling hole. Pour the water slowly until you cover the 3
water level indicators. Don’t be surprised by the small capacity of the
reservoir (50 ml / 1.76 .oz).
10 Return the ground coffee adapter back to its position on the
Handpresso device.

the locking indicator. Otherwise, the use of the machine could be
dangerous!

start button and serve a premium quality espresso
13 When the cup is lled as wished, stop the machine by pushing
the infusion button up with your nger. The pressure of the machine
is thereby released and the ow of coffee will stop.
14 Turn round the machine and re-open it. Always check that the
infusion button is up before removing the portalter!
15 Remove the ground coffee adapter from the machine. BEWARE
of the hot water which may still be in the water reservoir. Remove
