USING ESPRESSO MACHINE EMILIA

PREHEATING

In order to make a cup of espresso, you should preheat the machine including the holder, portafilter and cup prior to preparation. This way, the flavor of the coffee is not going to be affected by cold parts.

1. Fill the water tank with water. The water level should not exceed the maximum filling capacity marked with "MAX". Now cover the water tank with the lid.

2. Insert the portafilter into the holder without adding ground coffee. Insert the portafilter in a way that the handle faces the "INSERT" position. Turn the portafilter counterclockwise until it sits tightly in "LOCK" position.

3. Place a cup onto the cup shelf.

4. Plug the power plug into the socket. Make sure that the control knob is in its default position.
5. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "I" position. The blue coffee display is going to start flashing. The espresso machine is going to heat up.
6. As soon as the coffee display turns steadily bright, preheating is completed.

PREPARATION OF ESPRESSO

1. Detach the portafilter by turning it counterclockwise. Fill the portafilter with ground coffee and insert it back into the holder. One spoon of ground coffee is needed for one cup of espresso.
2. Firmly press the ground coffee in place with the tamper. Insert the portafilter into the machine in a way that the handle faces the "INSERT" position. Turn the portafilter counterclockwise until it sits tightly in "LOCK" position.
3. Place a cup into the cup shelf
4. As soon as the blue coffee display shines steadily, turn the control knob to the position. To preheat your cup, hot water will now pour into it. Empty the cup before preparing the espresso.
5. Turn the control knob to the position to prepare espresso.
6. As soon as the desired quantity of coffee has been obtained, turn the control knob back to its default position. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "O" position to switch off the machine. Note: Never leave the espresso machine unattended while preparing coffee as some steps must be operated manually.
7. Turn the portafilter counterclockwise to detach it after coffee has been prepared. Remove residues of ground coffee from the portafilter.
8. Let all parts cool down completely before cleaning them with water.

PREPARATION OF CAPPUCCINO

To make a cappuccino, one cup of espresso is combined with the same or a higher amount of hot milk and milk froth. Note: During steam generation, the portafilter must be in the "LOCK" position.

1. First prepare a cup of espresso. Make sure that the control knob is back in its default position afterwards.
2. Press the steam switch. The blue indicator display starts flashing.
3. For each cup of cappuccino that you want to prepare, fill 100ml of milk into a heat-resistant container. Chilled whole milk is best suited for frothing (no hot milk!).

Note: The container needs to be sufficient in size as the frothing process can more than double the amount of milk.

1. Hold the container in a way that the milk froth nozzle reaches ca. 2cm into the milk and turn the control knob to the position. Froth the milk with the released steam by moving the container downwards in a circular motion.
2. After frothing, turn back the control knob to its default position. Note: Immediately after frothing, clean the steam tube with a damp cloth. Be careful not to burn yourself!
3. Pour the frothed milk onto the previously made espresso.
4. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "O" position to switch off the machine.

Note: Let the espresso machine cool down for a minimum of 2 minutes before preparing another coffee.

HEATING UP LIQUIDS OR BEVERAGES WITH STEAM

The steam tube can be used for preparing hot beverages such as hot chocolate, water or tea.

1. Fill the water tank with water. The water level should not exceed the maximum filling capacity marked with "MAX". Now, cover the water tank with the lid.
2. Plug the power plug into the socket and turn the ON/OFF switch to the "l" position. The blue coffee display starts flashing.
3. Press the steam switch to activate the steam function. As soon as the blue indicator display shines steadily, preheating is completed.

4. Without the frother nozzle, put the steam tube into the liquid. Turn the control knob to the position.

5. As soon as the desired temperature has been obtained, turn the operation knob to its default position.

6. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "O" position to switch off the machine.

SPECIAL FUNCTIONS

Turn the control knob back to its default position to turn off the steam function. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the "O" position to switch off the machine. Note: Allow the descending agent to work for a minimum of 15 minutes.
5. Switch on the espresso machine and repeat steps 3 to 5 at least three times.
6. Then, brew coffee (without ground coffee). The blue coffee display starts flashing. The espresso machine heats up.
7. As soon as the blue coffee display turns steadily bright, turn the control switch to the position. Repeat the brewing process and prepare coffee until the water tank is empty.

Please follow the steps below if the machine does not function properly:

Problem Cause Solution
Water escapes from the coffee machine's bottom.	There is too much water in the drip tray. There is a fault with the coffeemachine.	Empty the drip tray.Contact the customer service for repair.
The espresso is sour in taste.	The mineral residues have not been removed properly. The ground coffee has been stored in a warm, humid place for an extended period and has gone bad.	Clean the coffee machine several times as describes in the section “Before first use”. Use fresh ground coffe and tightly close the container after each use.When not in use, store it in a cool, dry place (fridge).
The coffee machine does not start.	The power plug is not plugged into the socket properly.	Plug in the power plug properly. If the machine does still not start, contact the customer service for repair.
The steam does not froth the milk.	The steam indicator dis-play is not flashing.	As soon as the steam indicator display turns steadily bright, the steam can be used to froth milk.
	The container is too large or does not fit.	Use a high and slim container.
	Skimmed milk was used.	Use whole milk.

If the cause of the failure cannot be found, do not disassemble the machine on your own, but contact the customer service.
