WHAT IS ESPRESSO ?
Espresso originated in Italy. It is made by forcing out
a small amount of nearly boiling water under pressure
through nely ground coee beans. It is known as a
shot and is intense in avour.
1. Lift the water tank from the appliance.

3. Close the water tank cover and place it back in the appliance ensuring it ts
tightly.

1. Use the measuring spoon to measure
ground espresso coee and add to the
lter holder.
• For one cup, ll the lter with a level
measure of coee (approx. 7g).
• For two cups, ll the lter with two
level measures of coee.
2. Use the at side of the measuring spoon to
tamp down the coee evenly.
• To obtain a strong coee, tamp down
the coee rmly.
• To obtain a lighter coee, tamp down
the coee gently.
