Pre-Infusion

The machine allows you to adjust the dosage settings so
that the water produced for the COFFEE dose is preceded by
a pre-infusion step.
Press the dose button (2) and the normal coffee cycle is
preceded by a brief, timed jet of water that moistens the coffee
wafer before the actual coffee making cycle starts.
This function allows you to get the most fl avor out of the
coffee wafer.
PRE-INFUSION is not available on the dose button (3).
N.B.: the machine comes from the factory with PRE-INFUSION
function set to ON. Should you choose to deactivate this
function you will need to enter the programming mode
(see "Coffee dose programming") and press the
hot water supply button (4). The indicator light on the
button will turn off.
The indicator light on the hot water supply button (4) is
ON when the PRE-INFUSION function is ON. Vice versa, if
the indicator light is OFF, then the PRE-INFUSION function
is OFF.

with the fi lter holder cup inserted (warm-up time is about

(9) from the brewing head and fi ll with correctly ground
espresso coffee using the measuring spoon provided.
Place one level measure of coffee in basket for each cup
of espresso. Do not overfi ll. Gently tamp down coffee with
the tamper (18) provided. Do not compress too fi rmly.

Insert fi lter holder into brew head by holding handle ap-
proximately 45 degrees to the left as you face machine.
When properly aligned,move handle fi rmly to the right

up with the spouts of the fi lter holder. Press the button
corresponding to the stored coffee dose. Espresso will
start to fl ow into cups.

11 To brew more coffee, slowly remove the fi lter holder with
caution, moving it towards the left. Make sure to not get
burnt with the water from coffee grounds. Once the fi lter
holder has been removed, some water will still drop. This
is due to the water pressure in the system. Remove the
