Brewing the Coffee

The twin nozzle filter holder allows you

to make either one or two espresso

coffees at a time.
• Make sure the drip tray is in place.

Place empty coffee cups on the

drip tray under the filter holder.

• Make sure the Brew/Steam

Selector Control is in the

‘STANDBY’ position.

• Plug the power cord into a 230V or

240V power outlet and switch on.

• The red ‘POWER’ light will

illuminate when the appliance

has been switched on at the

power outlet and the cup

warming plate will start heating.

• Rotate the Selector Control to the

‘BREW’ position . The orange

‘HEATING’ light will illuminate to

let you know the water is heating.

Coffee will begin to flow into the

cups in approximately five minutes.

• The Pressure Indicator Button

on the Water Tank Cap will rise

when sufficient steam pressure

is achieved.

• When sufficient coffee has flowed

into the cups, turn the Selector

Control back to the ‘STANDBY’

position. This will stop the flow

of coffee.

• If you are not continuing to using

the steam function, switch off

at the power outlet, unplug the

power cord, remove all pressure

and allow the appliance to cool.

• Do not remove the water tank

cap or filter holder until the

steam pressure in the appliance

has been released. The Pressure

Indicator Button should drop

down and be flush with the top of

the water tank cap.

NOTE: The steam pressure in

the machine must be released

each time BEFORE re-filling with

fresh cold water.

full with cold

milk (skim milk is the easiest to froth).

• Hold the frothing jug below the

froth enhancer. Immerse the froth

enhancer 10mm into the milk

and rotate the Selector Control

to the ‘STEAM’ position . Gently

move the frothing jug in a circular

motion around the froth enhancer.

• When the milk begins to increase

in volume, immerse the froth

enhancer deeper into the milk to

further heat the milk. Do not allow

the milk to boil.

• Turn the Selector Control to

the ‘STANDBY’ position to stop

the steaming function before

removing the jug.

• Add the steamed milk to each cup

of freshly brewed espresso coffee

and spoon on the frothed milk.
