NOTE: Use pods which conform to the ESE standard: this will be indicated on the packaging by the following symbol: The ESE standard is a system accepted by the leading manufacturers, and allows espresso coffee to be prepared simply and without mess. 3. Hook the filter holder onto the machine, as always rotating it all the way (fig. 5. In order to remove the pod, press the filter holder button and take it out. If you use "illycaffè" coffee pods in your espresso machine, use the special filter holder; insert the coffee pod ensuring the name `illy' is facing down and the long side of the pod is parallel to the handle (see illustration). HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO COFFEE FILLING THE STEAM BOILER · Unscrew the boiler cap by turning it in an anticlockwise direction. · Fill the water measuring device up to the 170 gram (6 oz. ) line (fig. 14), first making sure that the CAPPUCCINO switch is turned off and the steam knob is closed. When the boiler is full, it holds enough water to make 15 to 20 cappuccinos. NOTE: for safety reasons, when the boiler is hot, it is 8 not possible to remove the cap because the threads do not grip. Therefore, to fill the boiler, it is necessary either to wait until all the water in it is used up or until the boiler has cooled. ATTENTION: it is recommended that the boiler be filled when cold and that the measuring container provided be used. If the boiler is filled while hot (for example, if the water runs out while making a cappuccino), it is recommended that only the contents of one measuring container be used. NEVER TRY TO FILL THE HOT BOILER UP TO THE MAXIMUM 170 GRAMS (6 oz. ) marked on the boiler itself (fig. 14); this is done, the machine will not froth the milk properly on the next attempt. HOW TO PREPARE A CAPPUCCINO · Before making the coffee, make sure that the steam knob is closed, then press the CAPPUCCINO switch (fig. · Prepare the espresso coffees as described in the HOW TO PREPARE ESPRESSO COFFEE section. NOTE: We suggest you used semi-skimed milk at refrigerated temperature. When the tank has been filled up to the MAX line, you can make 2 or 3 cappuccinos. Never fill the tank over the little notch that is located just above the MAX sign (fig. 16); if the tank is too full, the milk may continue to drip from the tube after the cappuccino has been made. · Before starting delivery of the milk, always wait until the `CAPPUCCINO OK' pilot light (fig. This light indicates that the ideal temperature has been reached for foaming the milk. [. . . ] · Only use coffee specifically ground for espresso coffee machines. · Rinse the unit as described in the "Decalcification" section. The espresso crema is dark (the coffee comes out slowly from the spout). The coffee has an acidic taste. · The unit was not sufficiently rinsed after the decalcification procedure. The milk does not form foam when making a cappuccino. · The milk is not cold enough. · The cappuccino maker is dirty. · Always use milk at refrigerator temperature. · Carefully clean the pinholes in the cappuccino maker, in particular the hole marked by the letter B in figure 22.
