Cleaning the Espresso Machine
When using the espresso machine for the first time, clean it as follows:
1.
2.
3.
Place a cup with a volume of at least 355 mL on the drip tray grid.
Press the double cup buton. It takes some time for water to flow through internal pipes before the espresso
machine starts dispensing water from the portafilter. Afer the water dispensing stops, press the double cup
buton again. Then, repeat water dispensing at least 3 times to complete cleaning.
Pour out residual water from the water tank, and add drinking water into it. The espresso machine will then
be ready for use.
Note: If the espresso machine still does not dispense water afer multiple atempts, please perform the following
operations:
a.
b.
c.
Place the cup below the steam nozzle.
Rotate the steam knob to , and wait for hot water to flow out of the steam nozzle. Afer the hot water
flows out for about 5 seconds, rotate the knob to OFF.
Afer completing the above operations, perform the steps 1–3 again.
Making Coffee
1. Selecting a Powder Bowl
a.
b.
c.
Place the espresso machine on a stable surface, and fill the water tank with purified water.
Select the single-cup powder bowl or the double-cup powder bowl as needed, and place the empty powder
bowl into the portafilter.
Use the coffee spoon to add coffee powder to the powder bowl in the portafilter.
Notes:
The optimal amount of coffee powder for the single-cup powder bowl is about the level of the coffee spoon or
7–9 g, and for the double-cup powder bowl is about the level of two coffee spoons or 14–16 g.
If the powder bowl is overfilled, the portafilter cannot be fixed into the espresso machine. If the coffee
powder is too litle, coarse coffee grounds may be formed due to high-velocity water flows, affecting the
quality and taste of coffee.
If the amount of coffee powder is within the optimal range, but the coffee is extracted excessively or
insufficiently, please adjust the coarseness of the coffee powder. If the coffee is extracted excessively
(flowing out too slowly), coarser coffee powder is required. On the contrary, if the coffee is extracted
insufficiently (flowing out too fast), finer coffee powder is required to achieve the optimal effect.
2. Pressing Powder
a.
b.
Flaten the coffee powder in the portafilter with the flat end of the coffee spoon, and remove the coffee
powder spilling over the portafilter.
Align the handle of the portafilter with the unlocking icon, and install the portafilter onto the espresso
machine. Turn the handle of the portafilter counterclockwise to the locking icon. Make sure the portafilter is
installed in place.
3. Extracting Coffee
a.
b.
Place the coffee cup below the portafilter, and press or to extract coffee.
Afer making coffee, turn the portafilter clockwise to take it out. Pour out the coffee grounds, and then rinse
and clean the portafilter and the powder bowl with clean water.
Notes:
You can try adjusting the default cup volume to achieve a beter extraction effect. However, seting the
default cup volume will change the taste of coffee and the amount of oil. You can restore the machine to the
factory setings if you want to restore it to the default cup volume.
