Thermoblock Fast Heating
System
- The thermoblock heats the water so that the espr-
esso extracts at 198°F (just below boiling point) for
optimum extraction of oils from the coffee grinds.
Temperatures above this will burn the grinds resul-
ting in a bitter taste.
- The thermoblock is fitted with a PID controller
which continually monitors the water temperature
to ensure water is always delivered to the coffee gr-
inds at the precise temperature needed.
15 BAR Pump
The thermoblock works in conjunction with the
pump to deliver the correct water temperature
at the correct pressure for complete extraction
of oils,coffee solids and aroma.
1050W Big Power
1050W big power can provide a fast and stable extra-
ction, making espresso more fragrant and richer in
crema.
Safe Protection System
The machine will automatically power off after
25 minutes, automatic pressure relief protection
to avoid water leakage.
Overheat protection to prevent dry burning.
Filter Basket
The filter basket allows a more consistent grind
compaction, resulting in a better tasty coffee.
Used espresso pucks can be easily emptied.
2 Separate Thermostats
More precise to control water and steam tempe-
rature separately. Espresso extraction temperat-
ure control for improving crema extraction is 197℉.
Milk frothing temperature control for making a
delicate foam is 212℉.
Pre-Infusion
Small amounts of water are released onto the
tamped coffee grinds prior to the steady flow of
water, for a richer flavored espresso.
2-in-1 Portafilter
The Portafilter holds coffee grinds for a true cafe
tasting coffee. Its perfect size ensures the grinds
are more evenly spread and easier to fill for imp-
orved flavor extraction.

Step 1 - Position the steam wand over the drip tray,
or place a container with a minimum capacity of
100mL under the froth nozzle.
Step 2 - Turn the knob to the “ ” icon. Allow
water to run through for 20 seconds.

The grind size will affect the rate of water flow through the coffee in the filter
basket and the flavor of the espresso. To make good espresso, a fine grind is
a must. Coarse coffee grinds can make the extraction too fast and lead to an
under extraction. But also note don’t use too fine grinds to avoid water
blockage or overflow from the portafilter. After tamping, make sure wipe
away any excess coffee grinds on the edges of the portafilter before installing
it to the machine.
2 - Grind Size
1 - All of the flavor comes from the beans, choose different kinds of roasts and
beans according to the type of coffee you make.
2 - For making espresso, medium- or dark-roasted coffee beans are well-suited.
If you use light-roasted coffee beans, the final coffee will be lighter in both its
color and flavor.
3 - Fresh, quality coffee beans will give you the best possible extraction. Bad
beans will not only affect your grinding results but also ruin your final coffee.
There are many types of beans on the market. To ensure best grinding results,
high quality beans are recommended.
4 - Old coffee beans, no matter what the grind setting is, will have a fast extraction
and will produce an under extracted tasting espresso.
5 - Buy coffee grinds well-suited for espresso if you don’t want grinding. When
using pre-ground bagged grinds, try to dose in half the grinds then tamp & re-
peat again.
5.2 Tips for Making the Perfect Espresso
1 - Coffee Beans/Grinds
Step 1 - Put a container under the Group Head.
Step 2 - Turn the knob to the “ ” icon and water should start flowing from
the group head.
Step 3 - After the machine brews out around 150mL
of water. Turn the knob back to “ ” icon to stop
brewing. The machine will return to the READY
state.
Step 4 - Pour away the water in the cup.

Add a proper amount of coffee grinds to the portafilter. The correct dose of the
double cup filter is around 14 grams not past the MAX line.
3 - Grind Dose
1 - A spoon of flat coffee grinds is approximately equal to 7g. Collect the coffee
NOTE

5. Espresso Making Guide 5. Espresso Making Guide
grinds with the provided spoon and shake the coffee grinds gently to make
the surface flat.
2 - You may need to experiment with how much coffee is put into the filter
or how long your grinder needs to run to achieve the correct dose.
3 - Tap the portafilter several times to distribute the coffee grinds evenly in
the filter.
4 - It is normal for the correct dose of coffee grinds to appear overfilled in the
filter before tamping.
Tamp the coffee grinds firmly with pressure around 10-15kg but not too hard
to avoid water blockage or overflow from the portafilter. After tamping, make
sure wipe away any excess coffee grinds on the edges of the portafilter before
installing it to the machine.
4 - Tamping Force
1 - Isolating changes to grind size & tamping force will assist in producing
a consistent taste every time.
2 - After tamping make sure wipe away any excess coffee grinds on the
edges of the portafilter before installing it to the machine.
3 - If the coffee grinds exceed the MAX line after being tamped, you can
continue to tamp. If the grinds are too firm to tamp down, take some
grinds out and then re-tamp.
NOTE
Before brewing, make sure the knob is in the " " position and the temperature
is suitable, at this point, the MAKING ESPRESSO button's light is blue.
The machine is just turned on and in the process of pre-heating, the MAKING
ESPRESSO button's light will flash blue, so it has not reached a suitable temper-
ature for brewing coffee. Before brewing coffee, make sure the pre-heating
process has finished, at this moment, the MAKING ESPRESSO button's light is
solid blue.
5 - Water Temperature
Take note of the below 2 cases of misoperation:
CASE 1 - Low Temperature
Around 40mL per cup is recommended.
How to get the volume?
Step 1 - Turn the knob to the “ ” icon to start brewing. The extraction process
will enter low pressure pre-infusion.
7 - Shot Volume
If for 2 shots with 1 cup, it is recommended that the capacity of the cup is about
100ML. While for 2 shots with 2 cups or 1 shot with 1 cup, it is recommended that
each cup is about 50ML. The cups without pre-heating or too large will make the
temperature of the espresso drop quickly, resulting in a poor flavor.
6 - Cups
What to do ?
The suitable temperature for brewing coffee is around 92 degrees Celsius(198
degrees Fahrenheit). If you accidentally press the MILK FROTHING button or
immediately brew coffee after steaming, the temperature will be too high, and
it is not suitable for brewing coffee.
If you accidentally press the MILK FROTHING button, press the MAKING ESPRESSO
button and wait until the temperature cools down to an appropriate temperature
for coffee, at this point, the MAKING ESPRESSO button's light blue on, then press
the MAKING ESPRESSO button and turn the knob to the coffee icon for brewing.
Here 2 ways for cooling down the machine:
a - Wait for the machine to lower down to a suitable temperature, the MAKING
ESPRESSO button's light is blue on. Now, the machine is ready for brewing coffee.
b - Turning the knob to the steam icon will pump cold water into the boiler, which
will help cool the machine. Wait until the MAKING ESPRESSO button's light is blue
on, then turn the knob back to the " " position. Now, the machine is ready for
brewing coffee.
If the machine just finished steaming, do not brew coffee immediately. Make
sure to press the MAKING ESPRESSO button, you can follow the above for cooling
down the machine till to the suitable temperature and then brew coffee, otherwise,
the machine will release high-temperature water from the group head and cause
the coffee to burn.
CASE 2- High Temperature

1 - Due to pre-infusion time, the espresso will not start to flow immediately.
2 - As a guide, the espresso will start to flow after 4‒7 seconds (infusion time)
and should be the consistency of dripping honey.
3 - If the espresso starts to flow after less than 3 seconds you have either
under dosed the filter, the grind is too coarse and/or the tamping force is
too light. This is an UNDER EXTRACTED shot.
4 - If the espresso starts to drip but doesn’t flow after 8 seconds, then you
have either over dosed the filter, the grind is too fine and/or the tamping
force is too heavy. This is an OVER EXTRACTED shot.
5 - A great espresso is about achieving the perfect balance between
sweetness, acidity and bitterness. The flavor of your coffee will depend on
many factors, such as the type of coffee beans, degree of roast, freshness,
coarseness or fineness of the grind, dose of coffee grinds, and tamping force.
6 - Experiment by adjusting these factors just one at a time to achieve the
taste of your preference, see ‘Extraction Guide’, page 15.

6. Milk Frothing Guide 6. Milk Frothing Guide
The steam only heats the milk. The milk also needs to be aerated (add air) to
create the micro-foam, and needs to be blended well together. Milk that has
been frothed correctly has been heated to between 140-149°F, and has a thick,
rich micro-foam with a silky sheen. It’s all about the temperature, positioning
of the Steam Wand and when you move the milk foam cup.
6.1 Brief Introduction
Milk frothing is the steaming of milk.
Key Elements of Frothed Milk
6.2 Tips for Making the Perfect Milk Frothing
NOTE
Frothing makes a smooth hissing sound.
Step 5 - Check that the milk is swirling.
Step 6 - As the milk level rises, lower the milk foam cup to keep the froth nozzle
below the surface.
Step 7 - When the desired micro-foam is reached, submerge the steam wand
halfway.
Step 8 - Milk frothing is complete when the base of the milk foam cup is too hot to
touch for 3 seconds.
Step 9 - Turn the knob to the " " icon.
Step 10 - Use the damp cloth to move the position of the steam wand, to avoid
scalding due to the high temperature of the steam wand.
Step 11 - Remove the milk foam cup from the steam wand.
Step 3 - The froth nozzle is at 3 o'clock, and the milk is just soaked to the 2mm
position of the froth nozzle.
Step 4 - The position of the left hand is fixed, and the right hand turns the knob to
the “ ” icon to start frothing the milk.
Use whole milk instead of skim milk, as skim milk is not suitable for frothing.
Use fresh whole milk at 38 - 46℉ (3-8℃).
1 - Milk variety
2 - Milk temperature
Use about 100mL of milk.
3 - Milk volume
Use a 300-350mL stainless steel milk foam cup.
4 - Milk foam cup
Continual release of steam causes less or no water in the boiler, it is recomm-
ended not to consecutively froth milk more than 3 times. If there is less or no
water in the boiler, refill the boiler with water before releasing steam by follo-
wing the steps below:
Step 1 - Turn the knob to the " " icon, and then press the MAKING ESPRESSO
button, turn the knob to the coffee icon. The machine starts pumping water
from the water tank into the boiler.
Step 2 - When water flows out of the group head, turn the knob to the " "
icon.
5 - Enough water in the boiler
Step 1 - Turn the knob to the “ ” icon, and release some steam out from
the steam wand before performing milk frothing, then return the knob to the
“ ” icon.
Step 2 - Hold the position below the tip of the milk foam cup and the bottom of the
milk foam cup with your left hand, and hold the handle of the milk foam cup with
your right hand. Arms at 12 o'clock.
Press the MILK FROTHING button when preheating before steam foaming and
wait for the white light of the MILK FROTHING button to illuminate solid and it
no longer flashes, which indicates that the heating is completed.

8.1 Cleaning & Maintenance - Brewer
The lack of maintenance of the machine would not only affect your coffee taste
but also lower the performance or even shorten the lifespan of your machine.
To make sure your machine operates efficiently, it is necessary to descale the
machine periodically.
Applies low water pressure at the start of the extraction to gently expand grinds
for an even extraction for a richer flavored espresso.

8.2 Descaling & Maintenance - Frother
1 - Please make sure that the rubber plug of the water outlet of the water tank
is removed.
2 - It is recommended to use pure water.
3 - Please prepare enough water in advance but not exceed the MAX line of
the water tank, and do not add too little water, otherwise the water pump
will make a loud noise and affect the coffee flavor.
4 - Make sure to make milk foam according to the 7 requirements, refer to "6.2
Tips for Making the Perfect Milk Frothing ", page 21.
Before Use
After Each Froth
After 15 Days or After 100 Uses
1 - Use the correct method to froth milk, refer to "6.3 Operation", page 23.
2 - If you stop frothing milk midway, restart with fresh milk and don’t use the
frothed milk.
3 - During milk frothing, if the water is running out, the machine will suddenly
make louder noises, check if there is enough water, and add water timely.
4 - Continual release of steam causes less or no water in the boiler, it is reco-
mmended not to consecutively froth milk more than 3 times. If there is less or
no water in the boiler, refill the boiler with water before releasing steam, for
detailed operation refer to "5-Enough water in the boiler", page 21.
Make sure to clean the steam wand after each use to keep its best performance.
For operation guide, refer to page 25, steps 18-21 in “ 6.3 Operation” section.
The steam function will become weaker after a period of use, not as strong as
before. To make sure your frother operates efficiently, it is necessary to descale
the frother periodically. We recommend descaling your frother every 15 days
or 100 cycles.
After Use
In Use
