- Grind and Tamp: Grind fresh coffee beans directly into the portafilter. Tamp the grounds firmly and evenly with the tamper. Aim for 30-40 lbs of tamptrykket.
Video 2: Shows the process of grinding coffee into the portafilter and then tamping it down for optimal extraction.
- Indsæt portafilter: Sæt portafilteret sikkert ind i gruppehovedet.
- Brygge: Place your espresso cup(s) under the portafilter spouts. Press the single or double cup button to start brewing. The pressure dial will indicate the brewing pressure, ideally within the "Espresso Range". Extraction time should be 25-35 seconds for a perfect shot.

3. Milk Frothing:
The 360° rotatable steam wand allows for creating dense micro-foam for lattes and cappuccinos.
