Generally speaking, you can use any type of commercially available coffee. However, coffee is a natural product and its flavour will vary depending on where it comes from and the blend used; it is thus a good idea to try out different types until you find the one that best suits your personal taste. For best results you should use blends specifically prepared for espresso coffee machines. Coffee should flow out smoothly from the “Crema” filter holder without dripping. The speed of flow can be adjusted by slightly changing the amount of coffee in the filter and/ or using coffee with a finer or coarser grind. B E F O R E AT T E M P T I N G A N Y
