Before first use
Before using your coffee machine for the first time or if you have not used it for some time, rinse the machine by running water through. Follow the procedure for making espresso coffee below, without coffee in the filter holder.
Before making your cappuccino the cups should be warmed. This can be done on the warming plate but please note that this may take up to 20 minutes depending upon the type of cup used.
