1 CUP filter, you should extract approx. 30ml. When using a 2 cup filter, you should extract approx. 60ml.
WARNING
The metal parts of the portafilter will be very hot.
IDEAL ESPRESSO ZONE
During extraction, the gauge needle when positioned in the middle zone, indicates the espresso will be extracted at the ideal pressure.
This occurs when the water flow through the ground coffee is too fast and results in an under extracted espresso that is watery and lacks crema and flavour.
Causes for under extraction include the grind being too coarse and/or insufficient coffee in filter and/or under tamping.
Over Extracted Zone
The gauge needle, when positioned in the upper zone during extraction, indicates the espresso has been extracted with too much pressure.
This occurs when the water flow through the ground coffee is too slow and results in an over extracted espresso that is very dark and bitter with a mottled and uneven crema.
Causes for over extraction include the grind being too fine and/or too much ground
coffee in filter and/or over tamping.
•When the STEAM/HOT WATER light stops flashing the steam wand is ready for use.

•Insert the wand into the milk and return the dial back to the steam position to texture milk.
•To stop the steam return the Steam dial to the STANDBY position and remove the jug.
