OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS CHOOSE THE RIGHT THE COFFEE AND GRIND HOW TO CHOOSE AND INSERT THE PORTAFILER BASKET For best results, use freshly ground espresso beans as pre-ground beans lose their flavor fast. The grind should be fine, like table salt. If the grind is too fine (it will feel powdery when rubbed between fingers), the water will not flow through even under pressure. If the grind is too coarse, the water will flow through too fast, resulting in a weak flavor.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS HOW TO PLACE THE PORTAFILTER ON THE BREW HEAD HOW TO MAKE AN ESPRESSO 1. Position the portafilter underneath the brew head with its handle facing to the left. 2. Insert the portafilter up into the brew head, lining up handle with the open lock icon on the unit. Espresso is a unique method of coffee brewing in which hot water is forced through finely ground coffee beans for a richer and more full-bodied brew than regular drip.
