Preparing espresso or cappuccino isdifferent from brewing regular drip coffee. Efectdc Espresso/
Cappuccino makers use steam pressure to force very hot water through the coffee gr_nds to make
espresso and use steam to froth milk for cappuccino. Since these machines use steam pressure, it
is very important that you read ALL the instructions, CAUTIONS, NOTES and ATTENTIONS and use
your espressotcappuccino maker properly.
We recommend that you get familiar with all the parts of your "Espresso Mini" before operating the
machine: insert the filter in the filter holder, fit the filter holder into the filter dngs, remove and
replace the boiler cap, turn the steam knob on and off. Wash all loose parts in warm soapy water,
rinse thoroughly and dry.

GENUINE ESPRESSO
Espresso is a far dcher and stronger brew than regular coffee. It should'be deep, dark and deli-
cious. Most people find that they enjoy it in smaU quantities because of its richness and for that
reason, espresso is usually served in small (2-2t/z oz.) demitasse cups.
The mark of real espresso is its wonderful inviting fragrance and its rich frothed topping: a light
brown, cream foam called "crema". Your "Espresso Mini", propedy used, will always produce
espresso that is deep, dark and delicious. Just follow the instructions and use fresh, well roasted,
pre-ground espresso or espresso beans you grind yourself.
GRINDING ESPRESSO BEANS
if you grind your own beans and use KRUPS
"FAST-TOUCH" (model #203), or "TOUCH-TOP"
(model # 208), The approximate grindling time for
4 cups of espresso is 16-18 seconds. Remember
espresso requires a fine gdnd.
