OpERATING YOUR BREVILLE CAFÉ MODENA ESpRESSO MACHINE
Before Using your Espresso Machine
Wash the filter holder and the stainless
steel filters in mild detergent and water.
Rinse thoroughly.
Filling The Water Tank
1. Ensure the Power switch is set to the
'OFF' position and the Selector Control
is set to the 'STAND BY' position.
2. Unplug the appliance from the
power outlet.
3. Lift up the water tank lid and remove
the water tank. Fill with cold water to
the maximum mark and replace in the
machine, pressing down firmly so that
the water valve opens. Close the
water tank lid.
NOTE:
The water tank should be filled with fresh
cold water before use. Check water level
before use and replace the water daily. Do
not use mineral or distilled water.
pre-Heating the Machine
For optimal créma, it is recommended to
carry out a complete brewing operation
with water but without any coffee grinds
before making your first coffee to ensure
that the machine has been preheated.
1. Make sure the Selector Control is in
the 'STAND BY' position.
2. Plug the power cord into a 120V
electrical outlet. Set the power switch
to the 'ON' position.
3. As soon as the orange 'HEATING' light
turns off, set the Selector Control to the
'ESPRESSO' position and run a small
amount of water through the brewing
head for a few seconds without the
filter holder in place.
pre-Warming Cups
For optimal coffee temperature, pre-warm
the espresso cups by placing them on the
cup warming plate.

Tips on Making the perfect Espresso

Don't just rely on your coffee maker to do
all the work. Making a good cup of coffee
is an art.
Water Flow
If you're making an espresso, make sure
the water flows through the coffee filter at
the correct rate. If it's too slow, the coffee
will be over-extracted - too dark and bitter,
with a mottled and uneven créma on top.
If it flows too quickly, the coffee will be
underextracted - the proper flavor won't
have had time to develop. You can adjust
the water flow by tamping (pressing down)
the coffee firmly or by changing the grind of
the coffee.
The Coffee
It is recommended to grind the beans just
before the infusion. Ground coffee can
keep its flavor, for a very long time if it is
stored in an air tight container placed in
a freezer.
The Grind
1. If using pre-ground coffee, ensure you
purchase an espresso grind for
espresso/cappuccino machines.
2. If grinding your own beans the coffee
must be ground fine, but not too fine.
It can affect the taste and the rate the
water flows through it.
3. If the grind is too fine, the water will
not flow through the coffee even under
pressure (this grind looks like powder
and feels like flour when rubbed
between fingers).
4. If the grind is too coarse, the water
flows through the coffee too fast,
preventing a full flavored extraction.
