Attention 
Hot Surface
The filter holder may be hot during operation, to remove the filter holder, turn the filter to the left, until the holder dislodges from the machine. (See figure 14)
The metal parts might still be hot and can be cooled down by running cold water over them. To make more espresso, proceed as follows: Check to see if the boiler chamber is empty and not under pressure (see section CAUTION - PRESSURE). Remove filter holder (f). Empty metal filter (See figure 15). Repeat steps
Steam Only
The glass carafe (i) has markings for 2 cups and 4 cups and steaming. 2 cups of water yields 2 cups of espresso. 3 cups of water yields 2 cups espresso, plus steam for frothing milk for cappuccino. 4 cups of water yields 4 cups espresso. 5 1/2 cups of water is the upper rim of the metal band surrounding the carafe.
Preparing Cappuccino
1.The first step in making cappuccino is to make espresso. Therefore, fill the glass carafe with the amount of water that is required to make the desired amount of espresso, plus additional water for frothing milk (see section Making Espresso).
2.Fill a small stainless steel pitcher 1/3 to 1/2 full with fresh, cold milk and set aside.
3.Follow the Espresso directions through item #11.
Note: Do not use the cup adapter to make cappuccino, use only the glass carafe.
4.As soon as half the required amount of espresso is produced, turn the strength control knob clockwise until tight and is pointed to the “
cup” marking (fig.12). At this time the boiler has created enough pressure and steam to start frothing milk. The “steam” indicator light will turn on (See figure 16). Frothing milk before finishing the espresso prevents you from running out of steam. This will happen if you froth milk towards the end of the brewing process.
5.To froth milk, take your pitcher with fresh, cold milk and insert the steam nozzle with froth attachment halfway into the milk (See figure 17). Then turn the steam control knob in
Attention 
Hot Surface
Do not bring milk to a boil (this will happen if large bubbles start forming at the surface of the milk).
6.After the milk is frothed, set aside and allow to it settle.
7.Turn the strength control knob
8.Pour the espresso into a cup that has a capacity of at least 5 ounces. Add the steamed milk to the espresso and spoon on the frothed milk. The proportion between espresso and milk is to taste; in Italy it is normally 1 part espresso to 2 parts milk plus froth. The steam nozzle may be hot during operation.
