Making an espresso with pre-ground coffee (continued)

Note: In the coffee making process, the ground coffee is dampened by a small amount of water. Known as pre-infusion, this helps in achieving maximum extraction of oils from the coffee grinds. Following

a short pause, the actual brewing process commences.

Note: You may stop the pour of coffee at any

time by briefly pressing the "OK" button. LCD: Indicates

<<CANCELLED PLEASE WAIT>>.

Note: If you have not dispensed coffee for a long period of time with the espresso machine switched on, you should rinse the brewing system before dispensing again. Start the rinsing process by pressing the

'RINSE" button See figure 25. LCD: Indicates <<RINSING PLEASE WAIT>>.

With this additional rinsing phase the brewing unit is brought back to the initial operating temperature.
