7 – STARTING THE MACHINE
Fill the boiler (8) with an amount of water that is proportional to the amount of coffee you wish to make
(the capacity of the machine is equivalent to to 16 cups of espresso coffee for the Gran Romantica and
Stradivari Gran Romantica).
The amount of water will not have to exceed the top part of the level glass (4)
and will not have to drop below the visible lower part of the same, picture A.

GRAN ROMANTICA MODEL
- Place the switch (5) on the on position; lighting it up, will
indicate that the machine is on, picture C.
- When the pointer of the pressure gauge (12) will have
reached the green zone, turn slowly the steam tap knob
(3) by turning it anticlokwise, to discharge the "false
pressure" due to the air left in the boiler; then close it
again by turning it clockwise and wait for the pointer
of the pressure gauge to reach the green zone. Now
the machine has reached the correct pressure and is
ready to deliver coffee and steam. The pressure will be
automatically regulated and maintained by the pressure
switch which acts on the heating element.
