How to Make a Good Cup of Coffee
Grinding coffee bean and grinding quality largely determines the quality of
coffee, if the powder is too coarse, coffee extract inadequate, the taste is
light, and color is lighter, the cream also will be very thin, and color is white;
if the powder is too fine, coffee over extraction, it will be too dark, and no
cream. A good cup of coffee should use freshly ground coffee beans (use
burr coffee grinder), and use appropriate amount of coffee beans. Each
time when you making coffee with coffee powder, the freshness of the
beans is very important, long time storage will make coffee bean oil
decomposition.
1. Use the bean grinder to adjust the appropriate grinding thickness, and
then pour the fresh coffee beans into the grinding chamber for grinding. Use
the bean grinder to adjust the appropriate grinding thickness, and then pour
the fresh coffee beans into the grinding chamber for grinding.
2. It is recommended to weigh each time you make coffee to ensure the
amount of coffee powder added single cup: approx. 9-9.5g; double cup:

3
approx. 16-16.5g, and tamp down firmly with a powder press;
3. The surface of pressed coffee powder should be about 3mm away from
the edge of the filter cup (important indicator). Too high or too low will affect
the extraction pressure and effect of coffee, please reduce or increase the
amount of coffee powder;
4. Make coffee liquid: single cup of coffee: approx. 30ml; double cup of
coffee:approx. 60ml, this can be adjusted by the thickness of the ground
coffee.

MAKE CAPPUCCINO (How to texture Milk)
1. Prepare espresso first with a large enough cup according to part “B”;
2. Take a steel frothing jug (IMPORTANT: Make sure the frothing jug is cold
before texturing milk. Refrigerate or run cold water into the jug before use),
pour into about 8℃cold full fat pure milk no more than one-third (1/3)；
Note: When selecting a jug size, it is recommended that the diameter of the cup
be no less than 70±5mm. As the volume of milk will increase after foaming,
make sure that the cup has enough height.
3. Touch the steam button to start the steam preheating, the single and double
cup coffee indicator light is off, and the steam indicator light starts to flash .
After the steam light is steady white, the steam preheating is completed;
4. Position the steam wand tip over the drip tray, turn the "steam knob" counter
clockwise to the maximum position, release a little water in the steam wand.
As temperature is achieved and once steam is emitted from the wand (not
water), the steam wand is ready for use. There are two phases to texturing
milk. The first is stretching the milk to aerate it and the second is swirling the
milk to make it silky smooth. These two operations should blend into one.
5. Before inserting the steam wand into the milk, pause the steam by returning
the STEAM knob back. Quickly insert the steam wand tip float below the
surface of the milk, close to the right hand side of the jug at the 3 o’clock
position;
6. Then quickly turn the STEAM knob back to the the maximum position to
frothing milk ;
7. Keep the tip just under the surface of the milk until the milk is spinning
clockwise, producing a visible vortex.
8. With the milk spinning, slowly lower the jug. This will bring the steam tip to the
surface of the milk & start to introduce air into the milk. You may have to gently
break the surface of the milk with the tip to get the milk spinning fast enough.

10
9. Texture the milk until sufficient volume is obtained.
10. When the milk temperature reaches between 60-65℃, it is finished.
11. Turn off steam BEFORE taking the tip out of the milk. Wipe the steam wand
with a clean wet towel.
12. Tap the frothing jug on the counter until the milk appears shiny and few
bubbles remain.
13. Pour textured milk as soon as possible into espresso, before the milk begins
to separate. Now Cappuccino is ready, you can add some sugar or coco
powder if you like it.
Note:
1. After the steam stops spraying, please clean the steam pipe assembly
immediately and discharge the milk in the pipe to prevent the milk froth from
scaling on the pipe wall. During the operation, due to the high surface
temperature of the steam pipe, be sure not to be scalded.
2. When the machine creates steam, a pumping noise can be heard. This is
normal, but if it makes a very loud (sizzling) noise, it means that the position of
the steam wand in the milk jug is not accurate(Note: It should not be inserted
into the milk, just float the steam hole on the surface of the milk), please watch
the tutorial or contact us to learn how to use it correctly.
