Fill the large espresso sieve q to the max marking with espresso powder. This equates to about 7g + 7g of powder or two levelled measuring spoons 9.

3)Tamp the espresso powder down with the help of the compactor on the measuring spoon 9 or on the appliance 6. Then, if necessary, fill it with more espresso powder, until the espresso sieb 0 q is full up to the Max marking. Tamp the coffee powder down once again.

NOTICE

►Compaction of the coffee powder is an essential process for the prepara- tion of an espresso. If the espresso powder is compacted very strongly, the espresso runs through more slowly and there is more crema. If the espresso powder is not so strongly compacted, the espresso runs through more quickly and it creates very little crema.
