5. PREPARING THE MACHINE:
a. Clean all parts.
b. Lift lid over water tank.
c. Use handle to remove water tank
and fill with cold, fresh water (fig. 2).
d. Insert water tank securely into
place.
e. Turn the machine on (fig.1; 1a). The
red indicator light in the On/Off
switch lights up.
f. When the orange thermostat light
located over the selector knob illu-
minates, the machine has warmed
up and is ready for use. (fig.1; 3)
g. Place a sieve inside porta filter –
DO NOT ADD COFFEE!
h. Insert porta filter into filter holder by
lining up arrow on thumb guard
with INSERT line (fig. 3 ) Make sure
the thumb guard is pulled back
towards the handle.
i. Lift up slightly and turn porta filter
to the right until it CLICKS into
locked position. (Do not force past
the "LOCK" position!).
j. Place a cup underneath porta filter.
(fig. 11)
k. Turn selector knob to right "brewing
coffee" position (fig. 6 )
l. Allow 3-4 ounces of water to run
through machine. Turn the selector
knob left back to the "O"-position.
(fig. 5).
6. AUTOMATIC WATER DISCHARGE
INTO TRAY
ATTENTION: The EspressoPro heats
the water in a stainless steel lined
Thermoblock system. Whenever you
return the selector knob back to the
"O"-position within a few seconds the
machine will start to make noise. This
noise indicates that the machine is
discarding a small amount of warm
"rest" water from the Thermoblock
into the drip tray. (The machine
will do this automatically.) Doing this
eliminates any stale water build-up.
The drip tray holds approximately
16 ounces of water and will overflow
after about 20 cups of espresso.
IMPORTANT: To avoid water overflow
we recommend pulling out and
emptying the tray after every 10 cups
of espresso. (fig. 19).
7. ESPRESSO COFFEE
An espresso is a highly concentrated
coffee beverage (that is the reason,
why most people add a bit of sugar to
it!) Coffee bars use 7 to 8 grams of
coffee per cup. The small sieve
