3. Fill the one- or two-cup filter with the required amount of coffee by means of the provided measuring spoon.
Firmly compress the coffee using the tamper. Depending on your taste, approximately 1 cup of coffee can be
made with 1 measuring spoon. When using coffee capsules for making coffee, you can place the capsules of
your taste in the filter provided for that purpose. Attention! Avoid making contact with the blades in the filter for coffee capsules,
these are very sharp.

holder. Then place the holder in the appliance from the INSERT position and firmly turn the handle counter-clockwise to
the LOCK position.

Tips:
• We recommend slightly warming up an espresso cup prior to use, for instance by first placing it on the hot plate on top of the
appliance. A pre-heated cup will prevent the espresso from cooling down too quickly.
• In order to make a good espresso, we recommend pre-heating the appliance. This is done by first making a cup of espresso
without adding coffee, as a result of which hot water flows through the appliance.
Warning: Do not leave your coffee machine unsupervised when it is working, because of the manual actions you have to perform.
