OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE CAFÉ MODENA ESPRESSO MACHINE

Before Using your Espresso Machine

Wash the filter holder and the stainless steel filters in mild detergent and water. Rinse thoroughly.

Filling The Water Tank

1.Ensure the Power switch is set to the ‘OFF’ position and the Selector Control is set to the ‘STAND BY’ position.

2.Unplug the appliance from the power outlet.

3.Lift up the water tank lid and remove the water tank. Fill with cold water to the maximum mark and replace in the machine, pressing down firmly so that the water valve opens. Close the water tank lid.

NOTE:

The water tank should be filled with fresh cold water before use. Check water level before use and replace the water daily. Do not use mineral or distilled water.

Pre-Heating the Machine

For optimal créma, it is recommended to carry out a complete brewing operation with water but without any coffee grinds before making your first coffee to ensure that the machine has been preheated.

1.Make sure the Selector Control is in the ‘STAND BY’ position.

2.Plug the power cord into a 120V electrical outlet. Set the power switch to the ‘ON’ position.

3.As soon as the orange ‘HEATING’ light turns off, set the Selector Control to the ‘ESPRESSO’ position and run a small amount of water through the brewing head for a few seconds without the filter holder in place.

Pre-Warming Cups

For optimal coffee temperature, pre-warm the espresso cups by placing them on the cup warming plate.

Tips on Making the Perfect Espresso

Don’t just rely on your coffee maker to do all the work. Making a good cup of coffee is an art.

Water Flow

If you’re making an espresso, make sure the water flows through the coffee filter at the correct rate. If it’s too slow, the coffee will be over-extracted - too dark and bitter, with a mottled and uneven créma on top. If it flows too quickly, the coffee will be underextracted - the proper flavor won’t have had time to develop. You can adjust the water flow by tamping (pressing down) the coffee firmly or by changing the grind of the coffee.

The Coffee

It is recommended to grind the beans just before the infusion. Ground coffee can keep its flavor, for a very long time if it is stored in an air tight container placed in a freezer.

The Grind

1.If using pre-ground coffee, ensure you purchase an espresso grind for espresso/cappuccino machines.

2.If grinding your own beans the coffee must be ground fine, but not too fine. It can affect the taste and the rate the water flows through it.

3.If the grind is too fine, the water will not flow through the coffee even under pressure (this grind looks like powder and feels like flour when rubbed between fingers).

4.If the grind is too coarse, the water flows through the coffee too fast, preventing a full flavored extraction.
