Double espresso
In standby mode, place a double espresso filter in the portafilter, pour 20 g of ground coffee
into the filter and tamper. Align the portafilter with the portafilter bracket, insert it into place
and turn it anticlockwise to lock it. Place 1 cup for a double espresso or 2 cups for 2 espressos
on the cup-holder tray. From the standby mode, press the double coffee button, the indicator
light will blink and the machine will start brewing a double espresso. The indicator light will
blink and the machine will start brewing coffee. The pressure gauge will display pressure at
which coffee is extracted during the brewing process and will be reset when it has finished.
When the set amount reaches 60-75 ml, the function will end automatically. If desired, it can
also be stopped manually by pressing the double espresso button again.
Coffee customisation
Long press the single or double espresso button until hearing a buzzer and any of both indicator
lights flash and start to brew coffee. When the desired amount of coffee is reached, press the
single or double espresso button and the device will record the amount of coffee. Next time it
is used, the amount of single and double espresso will be the same as the last recording (the
device will only take as valid amounts from 20 to 120 ml).
Long press grind, single or double espresso button to restore the single and double espresso
default settings.
When brewing coffee, make sure that the funnel is turned anticlockwise into the correct
position as shown below.

Hot water
From standby mode, turn the dial to the hot-water position. The indicator light will turn on
while the machine dispenses hot water. The coffee machine will dispense approx. 180-220
ml of hot water and then will automatically stop. The function can also be stopped manually
by turning the dial to central position. When it has finished, it will enter standby mode again.
Steam (Steam tube)
From the standby mode, turn the dial from the "0" to the steam position, the steam tube will
start emitting steam. The steam indicator light will blink. Turn the dial to the "0" position again
to deactivate the function off.
Recommendation: Allow the coffee machine to rest for 1 minute after performing a continuous
10-minute steam operation to prevent it from overheating.
It is recommended to use whole and cold milk for best quality results.
The steam function generates steam at high temperatures, be careful not to get burned.
Wait 3-5 seconds before turning the dial in vertical position and insert the steam tube into the
milk. Then turn the steam dial to froth position.
The steam function can last up to 5 minutes.
Foam the milk at 60 ºC .

After using this function, turn the dial back to its starting position, as any other functions will
not be able to be used.
Sleep mode
The coffee machine will automatically enter sleep mode after 15 minutes of no operation. The
On/off button will remain on. Press any button to quit sleep mode.
We recommend pre-heating the appliance, funnel, filters and cups before taking the coffee
out.
Grinding coffee beans
The coffee should be freshly ground and dark roasted.
Pre-ground coffee powder can only remain scented for 7 to 8 days unless it is stored in a sealed
container and placed in a cool place. Do not store in a refrigerator or freezer. Whole beans are
recommended to be ground just before use. The fragrance of the coffee beans stored in the
sealed container can be maintained for 4 weeks.
This is a vital step in the espresso making process if you are grinding your own coffee and
takes practice. The coffee must be of a fine grind. The correct grind should look like salt. If it is
too finely ground, water will be difficultly filter through it. These grinds look like powder and
feel like flour when rubbed between fingers.
If the grind is too coarse, the water flows through the coffee too fast, preventing a full-flavored
extraction.
Before using the coffee-bean grinding function make sure all the components are installed in
place.

The marks in the coffee-bean tank are meant to adjust the grinding coarseness.

Press the on/off button, the grinding indicator light will turn on indicating the grinding function
is ready to be used. Add coffee beans to the tank. Insert the portafilter and place it on the
portafilter holder. Push it forwards for the device to dispense ground coffee and adjust the
grinding level with the grinding level dial while the grinder is operating. The grinding level
must always be adjusted while the grinder is activated and operating. Turn the portafilter
counterclockwise and select single or double, depending on the cup used.
The indicator light will flash white during the grinding process.
Note: If the portafilter is not fitted properly into position, the indicator will light up in red and
will flash.
