let’s start with the basics!

ESPRESSO AND CAPPUCCINO Basics:

Espresso is a rich, dark coffee served in 2-ounce shots. An espresso made just right is a blend of full-bodied coffee taste and aromatic enjoyment.

Cappuccino is espresso coffee that is topped with steamed foamy milk. Both taste best when brewed with freshly ground from whole bean dark-roasted coffee, such as a French or Italian roast.

Ground coffee stays fresh for one week when kept in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Whole beans will stay fresh for up to four weeks. (Please note that coffee may absorb odors if stored in a refrigerator or freezer.)

THE GRIND

Coffee should be ground to a fine grind that resembles salt grains. Use a quality grinder or burr mill, such as a MR. COFFEE® Burr Mill or grinder.

If the grind is too fine, water will not flow properly through the Filter and the result will be a bitter tasting coffee. If it is too coarse, water will flow through too fast, resulting in a weak brew.

PREPARING TO BREW YOUR FIRST CARAFE

1.Wash the Glass Carafe, Glass Carafe Lid, Filter and Filter Holder with mild detergent, then rinse the parts well

2.To clean the inside of the machine, follow the steps for “How to Brew Espresso” below, using water only and no coffee. Do not immerse the appliance in water or attempt to reach any internal parts of the machine.
