Caution: if the water container is empty

W
ith the special
"ESE", which stands for "Easy Serving
Espresso", is a selected measure of coffee,
ground and pressed between two filter
papers making a coffee pod which is ready
to use (for example "illy  pods). This sys-
tem makes it easy for you to prepare your
espresso and to clean the machine.
The E.S.E. system was designed for making
Italian-style "espresso ristretto" or "short
espresso". The amount of coffee is about
two ounces and the water should take

20 seconds to run through.
We do not intend, or recommend, that
the E.S.E. servings are used for making
more then one single serving or a "long
espresso".
We recommend that you take care when
handling and storing the E.S.E. servings so
that they do not become deformed.
For best results, we recommend that you
pre-heat the accessories (filter holder, filter
basket and cups) without any coffee. To do
this, see section entitled "espresso function"
above.
. Preparing an espresso:
• Fill the water tank (1) (2) (3) and start the
appliance (4).
Place the serving of "illy  in the ESE filter
holder fitted with its own filter. The wording
"illy  must be pointing towards the bottom.
Setting the ESE pod (17).
Tear excess paper from pod at perforated
edge. Place the ESE pod with the RED
MARKING FACE DOWN (bend the paper
corners down).
• Take care to put all the paper inside the
filter or you will have some drips.
Placing the ESE pod correctly will create a
richer, thicker crema.
LOCKING the handle TIGHTLY and PRO-
PERLY will avoid leakage from the filter
holder and ensure a better brewing cycle.
Place the filter holder inside the brewing
head and FIRMLY turn the handle as far
RIGHT as possible.
Once the appliance reaches the correct
temperature, the orange temperature control
light will go out.

When the recommended quantity of coffee
•
has been reached (about two ounce) turn
the selector to the O position.
Remove the filter holder from the brewing
head and throw away the used coffee pod.
• Put the filter holder with the empty filter in
place (6) (7) and push the brew button to
purge and clean the filter of coffee sediment.
NOTE: Other pods (such as those sold by
Starbucks ) can be used in your Krups
