How TO PREPARE QUALITY ESPRESSO AND CAPPUCCINO AT HOME
THE COFFEE
The coffee should be a freshly ground, dark, espresso roast variety. You may buy
whole coffee beans and grind them yourself at home using a MR. COFFEE Burr Mill
or a MR. COFFEE Bean Grinder. Store whole beans in an air-tight container, in a cool,
dark area. You do not need to store them in a refrigerator or freezer. If you buy pre-ground
coffee, plan to use the coffee within 7 to 8 days for best flavor. Store pre-ground coffee
in an air-tight container and keep in a cool, dark area.
THE GRIND
This is a vital step in the espresso making process. The coffee must be ground fine,
but not too fine. If you buy pre-ground coffee or have it ground, make sure you get an
espresso grind.
ꢀ
The correct grind should look gritty, like salt or sand.
If the grind is too fine, water will not flow through the coffee, even under pressure.
Coffee that is ground too fine looks like powder and feels like flour when rubbed
between your fingers.
ꢀ
If the grind is too coarse, water flows through the coffee too fast,
preventing a full-flavored extraction.
ꢀ
THE PROCESS
Your New MR. COFFEE Espresso and Cappuccino Maker was designed to make brewing
fresh espresso and cappuccino at home easy. Several hints will help you make quality
espresso and frothed milk drinks time after time. First, always start with fresh, cold water
in the water reservoir. Be sure that all parts of your machine are cleaned from previous uses.
You can preheat the cups you brew espresso into by rinsing them with hot water.
This will help keep your espresso hot after it is brewed.
The quality, roast, freshness, grind and origin of the coffee beans you use will vary the
taste of your espresso. When you brew espresso, the grounds should be “tamped” in the
filter cup. Tamping is the process of slightly packing the espresso coffee grounds down in
the filter cup. Your MR. COFFEE Espresso/Cappuccino Machine comes with a pre-measured
coffee scoop and tamping tool (seeG on Page 4).
NOTE: Do not overpack the grounds.
Use the tamping tool to slightly press the grounds down after placing them in the filter cup.
This will help you brew hot, rich, delicious espresso with perfect crema(the golden layer
on top of fresh-brewed espresso).
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Refer to Page 4 for the Diagram of Parts.
1. Wash all removable parts with hot water and a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly.
2. Fill the Water Reservoir with water.
3. Follow the steps on Page 6 for brewing espresso to rinse the inside of the machine.
Use water only. You do not need to use grounds for the first cleaning cycle.
4. Follow the Steps on Page 7 for steaming milk to clean the Frothing Arm.
You should use water instead of milk for this cleaning process.
5. After you have brewed one cycle and steamed for approximately 45 seconds,
empty the water reservoir, remove and dry all parts.
YOUR ESPRESSO MAKER is now READY TO BREW GREAT ESPRESSO AND CAPPUCCINO!
BREWING ESPRESSO
1. Make sure the Control Dial (see Diagram on Page 4) is in the 0 position
and the On/Off switch is off.
2. Plug in your new MR. COFFEE Espresso and Cappuccino Maker.
3. Remove the water reservoir and fill witk fresh, cold water. Be sure to keep the water
reservoir filled above the “min” water level marking printed on the reservoir.
4. Replace the water reservoir into the machine, making sure that it fits snugly down into
place. You may need to push the water reservoir down slightly. When inserted properly,
the water container lid will close properly over the reservoir.
5. Turn the On/Off Switch to the “On” position so that the On Light is illuminated.
6. The temperature indicator light will be illuminated when the machine is heating water
for brewing and steaming.
7. While the water is heating, insert a filter in the filter holder. Use the one cup size filter
for brewing one cup of espresso and the two cup size for brewing two cups.
8. Use the Measuring Spoon to measure out grounds into the filter. Use one scoop of
grounds for one cup of espresso, and two scoops for two cups of espresso. Use the
tamping tool to gently tamp down the grounds so that they are flattened down and
smoothed over. Gently remove any excess grounds from the rim of the filter holder.
9. Insert the filter holder into the machine. Make sure the thumb guard is flipped back and
not resting on top of the filter. Insert filter holder approximately 45 degrees to the left,
using the line on the Brew Head as a guide. When properly aligned, slide the filter
handle to the right until the handle is in the locked position. The handle will be
in the “Lock” area and should feel snug. You do not need to overtighten.
10. Place a cup underneath the filter holder spouts. Espresso will brew out of both filter
spouts, so use a cup that is wide enough to catch liquid from both spouts or brew
into two cups placed right next to each other.
11. When the Brew Ready Indicator Light goes out, you may begin brewing espresso.
(Your machine will only take a few minutes to heat up enough water for brewing).
Turn the Control Dial to the right
Brew for approximately
30 seconds. You may adjust brewing time to taste. A shorter brew time will yield a
stronger cup of espresso. The brew ready indicator light may come back on while
you are still brewing. This just means that the machine is heating more water.
12. Turn the Control Dial back to “0” when you are done brewing.
13. To clean the filter out, remove the filter handle by turning back to the left. Use caution
when removing the filter holder as there can still be hot water in the filter. Flip the
thumb guard over the filter and knock out the used grounds. Use caution as the filter
and filter holder are very hot. Rinse out the filter and filter holder and dry all parts.
14. You can brew multiple cups of espresso one right after the other! Just make sure the
water reservoir stays filled above the “min” level marking. Repeat Steps 5
-13 above
to brew multiple cups of espresso.
STEAMING MILK
You may wish to steam milk to make Lattes, Cappuccino or many other hot beverages
using your MR. COFFEE Espresso Maker. This unit comes with a specially designed
steaming attachment to aid in the steaming process. Your new MR. COFFEE Espresso
and Cappuccino Maker will help you steam milk like a professional with ease!
As long as your Espresso Maker is turned on and filled with water, you can use the steaming
feature. There is no need to brew espresso before or after using the steaming feature.
For best results, use whole or 2% milk. This will create the thickest froth with your steamed
milk. Skim or 1% milk may be used for lower fat beverages. Your MR. COFFEE Espresso,
Maker’s special frothing attachment will make thick froth even using skim or 1% milk!
1. Fill a small stainless steel pitcher one third to one half way with cold milk. We recommend
using a MR. COFFEE Frothing Pitcher (EFPI) or any other pitcher that holds about
10 to 12 ounces and is around 5 inches tall. The pitcher should be cold. Do not use
a pitcher that has just been washed with warm water.
2. Make sure-the Espresso Machine is turned on and that there is water in the water reservoir.
The brew ready indicator light will go off when the machine is ready to steam milk.
3. Place the steaming tube in the pitcher with milk. Hold the pitcher so that the steaming
tube is submersed in milk and close to the bottom of the pitcher.
4. Turn the Control Dial to the left
(steamposition). You will hear the pump “pulsing”
on and off. The brew ready light will come back on while you are steaming milk. This is
normal and you may continue steaming until you have completely steamed your milk.
U
SE CAUTION Steam emitted from the frothing arm is very HOT. As the milk heats up,
:
the frothing pitcher will become very HOT!
5. The specially designed frothing attachment requires very little effort to produce thick
and frothy steamed milk. Steam the milk until the desired consistency is achieved
or until the frothed milk reaches the top of the pitcher. Slightly moving the pitcher
up and down while steaming (andkeeping the frothing tube immersed in milk)
will help produce extra froth. When you are finished steaming, turn the Control Dial
back to the “0” position.
6. When the Control Dial is turned back to the “0” position, you will notice the machine
releases some steam. This is the machine releasing the pressure it has generated during
the steaming process and is normal.
I MPORTANT
Clean the steam nozzle and frothing attachment immediately after each use. Fill a
pitcher halfway with water and run the steaming feature again for about 20 seconds.
This will clean out the inside of the steaming tube. Use a damp cloth to wipe off the
exterior of the steaming tube and frother attachment. You may want to rinse the frother
attachment with warm soapy water. If the end of the steam tube becomes blocked with
dry milk, use a sewing needle or safety pin to clean out the small hole.
After using the steaming feature of your machine, the heating system is at its highest
temperature. If you wish to prepare more espresso immediately after steaming milk,
the heating system should be cooled down to keep from “burning’: your espresso.
Insert an empty filter into the filter holder, insert and secure the filter holder in the machine,
place a cup underneath the filter holder and turn the Control Dial to the brew position.
When the temperature ready light illimunates, turn the Control Dial back to “0.”
Your machine is now ready to brew espresso at the perfect temperature.
CLEANI NG
When you are finished brewing espresso and steaming milk, begin cleaning by turning
the unit off and unplugging the power cord.
The filter handle and filters should be cleaned each time you brew espresso. To clean,
remove filter handle by turning the handle approximately 45 degrees left of center.
The filter handle will release down from its locked position. Use caution as the filter
may still contain hot water floating on top of the coffee grounds. Knock the used espresso
grounds out while holding the filter in place by holding the thumb guard lock firmly
against the filter cup. Use caution as the filter cup and holder will be very hot. Rinse the
filter cup and holder out thoroughly with water. It is not recommended to put the filters
or filter holder in the dish washer. However, they are top-rack, dishwasher safe. If you are
not going to use the machine again for some time, do not reinsert the filter holder on
the brew head; this will lengthen the service life of the filter seal.
Remove the Water Reservoir and empty out any remaining water. Do not wash the
Water Reservoir in the dishwasher.
Remove the Drip Tray and Overflow Grid from the machine and rinse with warm,
soapy water. Do not wash these parts in the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE BREW HEAD.
The Brew Head may need cleaning after prolonged use. You may wipe off the brew head
with a damp cloth to remove any old espresso grounds. If the brewing sieve (the underside
of the brew head) is particularly dirty, run a few cycles of plain water through the machine.
Operate the machine as if you were going to brew espresso, but do not put coffee grounds
in the filter cup. Secure the filter handle in place and operate for 30 seconds several times.
This will run hot water through the brew head and clean out any old grounds.
CLEANING THE FROTHING TUBE
The Frothing Tube should be cleaned immediately after every use to prevent steamed milk
from drying on the tube. Fill a pitcher half way with water and run the steaming feature
again for about 20 seconds. This will clean out the inside of the steaming tube.
Use a damp cloth to wipe off the exterior of the steaming tube and frother attachment.
You may wish to rinse the frother attachment with warm, soapy water. If the end of
the steam tube becomes blocked with dry milk, use a sewing needle or safety pin
to clean out the small hole.
D E - L I M I N G
The service life of your Espresso Maker will be lengthened if you de-lime it regularly.
Your Espresso Maker may be de-limed using white household vinegar. The frequency
of de-liming depends upon the hardness of the water used. The following table gives
the suggested cleaning intervals.
Fill about 18 ounces of vinegar into the Water Reservoir. Place a sufficiently large container
in the middle of the drip tray. Allow about one-third of the vinegar to run through the
system by operating the machine as if you were making espresso, but without putting
coffee grounds in the filter cups. Switch the machine off again and leave the vinegar to
work in for IO to 15 minutes. Then run the rest of it through the system in one cycle.
It may be necessary to repeat the de-liming if the lime deposits are heavy. After the
last cycle, run two reservoirs of clear, fresh water through the system to clean all vinegar
from the machine. Once the cleaning cycle is complete, clean all removable parts in warm,
soapy water.
