6 ADVICE ON CHOICE OF

COFFEE Practically any type of ground coffee on the market can be used with this machine. Coffee is a natural product and its taste varies, depending on its origin and blend. It is therefore advisable to try a number of different types to discover your own perso- nal preference. For best results use blends specifically ground for espresso machines. The coffee flow should be constant and should not drip. The speed of the coffee flow can be regulated by changing the dosage, the fineness of the grinding and/or by how heavily you tamp down the coffee in the filter.

• If the machine is not already on, turn it on at the main switch (3) which will light up.

• Place a cup or a glass tea cup under the steam tube (“Pannarello”).

• Open the “Hot water/steam knob (6), turning it in anti-clockwise direction and press the coffee switch (4) to start the water flow.

• To stop the water flow, press the coffee switch (4) again, and close the steam knob (6) by turning it in a clockwise direction. Danger of burning! When water begins to flow out, it may be very hot. The steam tube does get very hot, so avoid touching it in any way.26 STEAMING FUNCTION - CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS - DESCALING
