Secrets to the perfect cup

With a Sunbeam pump espresso machine and a little experience, you can create café quality coffee at home. As there are a number of possibilities for making coffee to meet your personal taste, following are a few helpful suggestions:

The origin of the bean and roasting will affect the taste of the espresso, so test different brands of coffee to find the one that you like best.

The grind of the coffee is critical. Vary the degree of grinding to find the right fineness for the coffee beans being used.

A regular shot of espresso, the base of all café coffees is approximately 30mLs. The shot of espresso is a concentrate; vary the quantity of milk to determine the strength and volume of the coffee. If you are using a large coffee cup or mug you may require a double shot of espresso, rather than just a single shot depending on your taste.

Always use the freshest beans or ground coffee available and store in an airtight container in a cool, dry, dark place.

Whole coffee beans stay fresh longer than pre-ground coffee.

Pre-warm cups prior to making an espresso, either by filling with hot water or placing on the warming plate.

Always use cold milk and a clean stainless steel jug when texturing/frothing milk.

Don’t boil the milk when steaming. The ideal temperature is when the jug becomes too hot to touch.

Once prepared, serve coffee immediately.

Keep the espresso machine clean. Familiarise yourself with the ‘Care and Cleaning’ section of this book.
