(filter holder and cups) by running water
directly into the cups (see «Before first use»).
. Preparing an espresso :
Your appliance enables you to prepare an
espresso either with ground coffee or with a
measure of «ESE» preportioned espresso
pods.

«I». The indicator light (e1) will come on.

coffee :

with the desired position by turning the
selection ring (j1) (5):
«

« » = 2 cups
• Put some ground coffee in the filter, firmly
pressing down the ground coffee with the
back of the spoon (1 measuring spoon (o) =
1 cup) (5).
• Clean the edges of the filter holder.
• Fit the filter holder in place under the
percolation head (3).
• Place one or two espresso cups under the
filter holder. If necessary, adjust the height of
the grid support (4).

appropriate temperature, the indicator light (f)
will illuminate.

the filter, and remove the ground coffee by
pressing the ejection button (j2) (6).
The filter holder can now be refilled to
prepare more espressos.
b. Preparing an espresso with a measure
of « ESE »
• Use only «ESE» type pods.
The E.S.E system was designed for making
espresso «ristretto» (pressed) Italian-style for a
quantity of coffee of between 35 and 50 ml.
«ESE», stands for «Easy Serving Espresso». It
is a pre-measured pod of coffee which has
been selected, ground and compacted
between two filter papers, rendering it ready-
to-use. This system simplifies the preparation
of an espresso by avoiding the need to
measure and tamp ground coffee - making it
significantly easier to clean and care for the
appliance.
It is neither intended nor recommended
that you make a long coffee with these
pods.
We advise that you take care not to damage
the «ESE» pods during handling and storage.
• Align the arrow located on the filter holder
with the position « 1 cup » «
» by turning
the selection ring (j1) (5).
• Place the measure in the filter holder. In the
case of an ESE pod with flaps, fold the flaps
down towards the interior (7).
• Put the filter holder in place under the
percolation head (3).
• Place a cup under the filter holder. If
necessary, adjust the height of the grid
support (4).
As soon as the appliance reaches the
appropriate temperature, the indicator light (f)
will illuminate.
•Now, turn the function selector (d) to the
«
» position.
• Once the recommended quantity of coffee
has been reached, turn the function selector
(d) to the off position O.
• Slowly remove the filter holder, as there may
be a buildup of hot water still remaining in
the filter, and throw away the used ESE pod
by pressing the ejection button (j2) (6).
