HOW TO MAKE ESPRESSO COFFEE
Tips for a hotter coee
For hotter espresso coee, you should:
• Attach the lter holder to the appliance with the lter in
place but without adding coee.
Using the same cup as will later be used to make the coee,
press the 1 cup button and deliver hot water into the cup to
heat it.
• Raise the coee temperature in the settings menu.
• Rest the cups you will be using on the cup warmer (D)
which becomes hot during operation.
How to make espresso coee using pre-ground
coee
1. Place the ground coee lter (P or Q) in the lter holder
(g. 6). To make one coee, use the lter with the
symbol on the bottom, to make two coees, use the lter
with the
symbol on the bottom.
2. To make just one coee, place one level measure of pre-
ground coee (about 7 g) in the lter (g. 7).
To make two coees, place two loosely lled measures
(about 7+7 g) of pre-ground coee in the lter. Fill the
lter a little at a time to prevent the pre-ground coee
from overowing.
