Steam

The steam function allows the coffee maker to produce steam out of the steam wand for texturing milk.

To activate the steam function, the coffee maker simply needs to press the ‘STEAM’ button. By design the temperature of the espresso machine will adjust as necessary. There may be a short delay while you wait.

Note: When the coffee maker has activated the steam function the light behind the ‘STEAM’ button will show a constant green light and the light behind the ‘COFFEE’ and ‘HOT WATER’ buttons will go off. Additionally the light behind the ‘POWER’ button will remain on.

The coffee maker simply needs to turn the steam and hot water control dial anti- clockwise to the ‘MAX’ setting to start and turn it back to the ‘OFF’ position to stop. Press the 'STEAM' button again to deactivate the steam function.

MAX

OPEN

Note: If the light behind the ‘STEAM’ button is flashing it means the espresso machine is adjusting the temperature of the heating system. You will be able to use the steam while it is heating up but this is not advised as the steam will be wetter than if the machine is fully heated up.

Once the espresso machine is heated to the correct temperature, so the light behind the ‘STEAM’ button stops flashing and shows a constant green light, the coffee maker is able to use the espresso machine.

OFF

Note: When you have finished steaming, ensure the steam control dial is fully turned off. If the steam control dial is left open, the coffee maker will not be able to switch to the ‘COFFEE’ or ‘HOT WATER’ functions.

Note: After 10 minutes of inactivity in the steam mode, the espresso machine will automatically switch back to the ready mode.

This model stands out in a crowded market by offering a perfect blend of advanced features, innovative technologies, and user-friendly characteristics, making it an ideal choice for home baristas.

One of the key features of the Sunbeam EM5900 is its powerful 15-bar pump. This pump ensures that water is forced through the coffee grounds at optimal pressure, extracting rich flavors and aromas for a perfectly brewed espresso. This machine also has a pre-infusion function, which gently expands the coffee grounds before the full brewing process begins, enhancing flavor extraction and ensuring a smoother shot.

The EM5900 boasts an integrated steam wand, which allows users to create rich, creamy froth for lattes and cappuccinos. The steam wand is designed for ease of use, making it simple for anyone to achieve café-quality microfoam at home. Its 360-degree swivel capability provides flexibility for maneuvering when steaming milk, ensuring a professional touch.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the Sunbeam EM5900 is its dual-purpose system that allows for simultaneous brewing and steaming. This feature significantly cuts down preparation time, allowing users to craft their beverages without having to wait for the machine to switch modes. This efficiency is a game changer for busy mornings or for entertaining guests.

The stainless steel design of the EM5900 not only gives it a modern and elegant look but also ensures durability and easy cleaning. The removable drip tray and water tank make maintenance straightforward, while the water tank’s generous capacity means fewer refills during use.

Additionally, the machine is equipped with an intuitive control panel with a simple gauge, allowing users to monitor their brewing process effortlessly. These controls are designed to be user-friendly, making it easy for anyone to operate whether a novice or experienced barista.

The Sunbeam EM5900 is not just an espresso machine; it combines aesthetics, convenience, and functionality in a compact size that fits comfortably in most kitchen environments.
