OPERATING YOUR ESPRESSO MACHINE ES 8011 SE
BEFORE FIRST USE
Machine Preparation
Remove and discard all labeling and
packaging materials attached to your
espresso machine. Ensure you have removed
all parts and accessories before discarding
the packaging.
Clean parts and accessories (water tank,
portalter, lter baskets and jug) using warm
water and a gentle dish washing liquid
and rinse well. Wipe the outer housing and
drip tray with a soft damp cloth and dry
thoroughly.
Do not immerse the outer housing, power
cord or power plug in water or any other
liquid.
The water lter located inside the water tank
will need to be removed before washing the
water tank.
Conditioning the Water Filter
• Remove lter from the plastic bag and
soak in a cup of water for 5 minutes.
• Rinse lter under cold running water.
• Wash the stainless steel mesh in the
plastic lter compartment with cold
water.
• Insert the lter into the lter holder.
• Set the dial date 2 months ahead.
• To install lter, push down to lock into
place.
• Slide the water tank into position and
lock into place.
NOTE:
To purchase the water lter contact
your dealer.
FIRST USE
Initial start up
• Fill tank with water
• Press POWER on
• A pumping sound will be heard.
The machine will reach operating
temperature and go into Standby mode.
Duritn the heating the POWER button will
ash. Once all buttons are illuminated,
the coee machine is ready to use.
NOTE:
If the POWER button ashes for
example during the extraction, it is
a normal behaviour. The system is
heated up.
Flushing the Machine
It is recommended to complete a water
ushing operation, without ground coee, to
ensure the machine has been conditioned.
When the machine has reached STANDBY
mode, run the following 2 steps.
• Press the 2 CUP button to run hot water
through the group head for 30 seconds.
• Activate hot water for 10 seconds.
• Repeat this cycle until the water tank
is empty
NOTE:
Do not clean any of the parts or
accessories in the dishwasher.

16 OPERATING YOUR ESPRESSO MACHINE ES 8011 SE
FILLING THE WATER TANK
• • Ensure the water lter is securely tted
inside the tank.
• Fill the water tank with cold tap water to
the maximum mark on the side of the
tank and slide the water tank back into
position at the back of the machine.
• Plug the power cord into power outlet
and switch On at power point.
• Press the POWER button to On. The
POWER button surround will ash while
the machine is heating. When the correct
temperature has been reached, all the
button surrounds on the control panel
will illuminate.
NOTE:
Check the water level before use and
replace the water daily. The water
tank should be lled with fresh, cold
tap water before each use. Do not use
mineral or distilled water or any other
liquid.
TAMPING THE GROUND COFFEE
Place an adequate amount of coee into
the basket, tap down to collapse and using
the integrated tamper, tamp down rmly
(approx. 15–20 kg of pressure).
TRIMMING THE DOSE
The Razor™ precision dose trimming tool
allows you to trim the puck to the right level
for a consistent extraction.
Insert the Razor™ into the coee basket until
the shoulders of the tool rest on the rim of
the lter basket. The blade of the dosing tool
should penetrate the surface of the tamped
coee.
Rotate the Razor™ dosing tool back and forth
while holding the portalter on an angle over
the knock box to trim o excess coee.
Your coee lter basket is now dosed with
the correct amount of coee.
NOTE:
When using a ner espresso grind for
the Single Wall Filter basket, you will
need to increase the grind amount to
ensure the lter is correctly dosed.

ADVANCED TEMPERATURE SETTING
The water temperature can be increased or
decreased by 1°C or 2°C if desired.
Coee of dierent origins or roast proles
may need a dierent espresso brew water
temperature to optimise their avour. If your
espresso is tasting slightly“ashy” decrease
the brew water temperature by 1°C. If your
espresso is tasting slightly“sour” increase
your brew water temperature by 1°C.
To amend temperature settings:
• With the machine OFF, press and hold the
1 cup button and then simultaneously
press and hold the POWER button. It is

MANUAL SHOT VOLUME
Manually control low pressure
pre-infusion time and shot volume without
re-programming the pre-set shot volume.
• Press and hold the 1 CUP or 2 CUP
button. The extraction will enter low
pressure pre-infusion until the button

lter, you should extract approx. 60ml.
WARNING:
The metal parts of the portalter will
be very hot.
ESPRESSO PRESSURE GAUGE  LOW
PRESSURE PREINFUSION
The gauge needle will be positioned in
the pre-infusion zone at the start of the
extraction indicating the machine is in low
pressure pre-infusion mode. The low pressure
pre-infusion gradually increases water
pressure to gently expand grinds for an even
extraction before increasing to full pressure.
IDEAL ESPRESSO ZONE
During extraction, the gauge needle when
positioned in the middle zone, indicates
the espresso will be extracted at the ideal
pressure.

20 OPERATING YOUR ESPRESSO MACHINE ES 8011 SE
UNDER EXTRACTED ZONE
During extraction, the gauge needle when
positioned in the lower zone, indicates the
espresso has been extracted with insucient
pressure.
This occurs when the water ow through the
ground coee is too fast and results in an
under extracted espresso that is watery and
lacks crema and avour.
Causes for under extraction include the grind
being too coarse and/or insucient coee in
lter and/or under tamping.
OVER EXTRACTED ZONE
The gauge needle, when positioned in the
upper zone during extraction, indicates the
espresso has been extracted with too much
pressure.
This occurs when the water ow through the
ground coee is too slow and results in an
over extracted espresso that is very dark and
bitter with a mottled and uneven crema.
Causes for over extraction include the grind
being too ne and/or too much ground
coee in lter and/or over tamping
TEXTURING MILK
The coee maker Catler ES 8011 SE comes
with a commercial style steam wand.
• Turn the STEAM/HOT WATER selector
dial to the steam position. The STEAM/
HOT WATER light will ash to indicate the
machine is heating to create steam.
• When the STEAM/HOT WATER light stops
ashing the steam wand is ready for use.
• Before inserting the steam wand into the
milk, pause the steam by returning the
dial back to the I position. This will avoid
the milk splashing out of the jug (this
pause function lasts for 6 seconds before
exiting steam mode).
• Insert the wand into the milk and return
the dial back to the position to
texture milk.
• To stop the steam return the Steam dial
to the I position and remove the jug.
NOTE:
When the espresso machine creates
steam, a pumping noise can be heard.
This is the normal operation of the
15 bar Italian pump.
