OPERATING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE
EXTRACTING ESPRESSO
Insert the Portafilter into the Group Head &
lock into position. Turn the Control Dial to the
'Espresso' position. After a few seconds, coffee
will begin to brew into the cup.
When sufficient coffee has flowed into the
cup, turn the Control Dial to 'Standby'. Sage
recommends approx. 30 sec of extraction.
NOTE
For optimal flavour when using a 1 CUP
filter, you should extract approx. 30ml.
When using a 2 CUP filter, you should
extract approx. 60ml.
NOTE
If machine is run continuously for
30 minutes, allow machine to cool for
5 minutes before each use.
WARNING
The metal parts of the portafilter
will be very hot.
