INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You have selected a quality Oster®Espresso/Cappuccino Maker. This
unique appliance has been designed to provide you with delicious espresso/cappuccino
quickly and conveniently.
Espresso is a unique method of coffee brewing in which hot water is forced through nely
ground coffee. Popular in Europe, it is a far richer and more full-bodied brew than regular
drip coffee. Because of its richness, espresso is usually served in 44 to 59 mL (1.5 to 2 oz.)
portions, in demitasse cups.
Most espresso drinkers outside of Europe prefer cappuccino, a drink made with about 1/3
espresso, 1/3 steamed milk, and 1/3 frothed milk. Preparing espresso or cappuccino is
very different from brewing regular drip coffee since this appliance works under pressure
and requires special attention.
Please read ALL of the instructions, cautions, notes and warnings included in this
Instruction Manual carefully before you begin to use this appliance. When this unit is
used, some parts and accessories get hot and need to cool down. Proper care and
maintenance will ensure the long life of the Oster®Espresso/Cappuccino Maker and its
trouble-free operation. Save these instructions and refer to them often for cleaning and
care tips.
Your Oster®Espresso/Cappuccino Maker can be used with ground coffee as well as
E.S.E. pods (45 mm), making it exceptionally practical and versatile to prepare single
shots of espresso (Ristretto).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Please follow these important safety instructions while using your unit:
1. Before removing any of the parts and accessories, make sure the control knob on the
side of the unit is turned to the brew/off position “ ”, press the on/off switch to the
off position “O” and unplug the appliance.
2. Do not remove the porta-lter at any time during the brewing process.
3. Use caution when removing the porta-lter. The metal parts may still be very hot.
Also, there may be hot water oating on the top of the lter. Hold it only by its handle
and dispose of the brewed coffee ground by using the lter retention clip.
4. If coffee does not drip, the lter is blocked. Turn off the appliance and allow it to cool
down. The blockage may be caused by the coffee being too nely ground. See the
“PROBLEMS AND CAUSES” section.
5. WHEN CLEANING THE FROTHING TUBE: Place a frothing pitcher or large cup (with
at least 325 mL/ 11-ounce capacity) half full of water under the frothing tube cap.
Make sure the tip of the frothing tube is submerged in liquid before turning the control
knob to the steam “ ” position. Froth the water for approximately 15 seconds then
wipe clean the frothing tube and cap.
NOTE: In order for your unit to work properly time after time, clean the tube and cap

SELECTING THE RIGHT COFFEE
THE COFFEE
The coffee should be freshly ground and dark roasted. You may want to try a French
or Italian roast. Pre-ground coffee will only retain its flavor for 7 – 8 days, provided it
is stored in an airtight container and in a cool, dark area. Do not store in a refrigerator
or freezer. Whole beans are recommended to be ground just before use. Coffee
beans stored in an airtight container will keep its flavor for up to 4 weeks.
THE GRIND
This is a vital step in the espresso making process and takes practice. The coffee must
be of a ne grind.
• The correct grind should look like salt.
• If the grind is too ne, the water will not ow through the coffee even under pressure.
These grinds look like powder and feel like our when rubbed between ngers.
• If the grind is too coarse, the water ows through the coffee too fast, preventing a full-
avored extraction.
Be sure to use a quality grinder for uniform consistency. Oval shaped coffee grinders are
not recommended because the grind is not consistent.
HOW TO USE THE ESPRESSO FUNCTION
A. Make sure the unit is switched off “O” and the side knob is in the coffee/off position “ ”.
B. Fill the reservoir with water, you may either use a jar to ll it up or remove it from the

HOW TO USE THE
STEAMING/FROTHING FUNCTION
This function conveniently helps you prepare delicious beverages such as:
Cappuccino, Latte, Macchiato, Mocha and more.
The instructions below illustrate how to prepare Cappuccino, which is the most
popular use for this function. Please refer to the recipes at the end of this manual
for directions on how to prepare other hot beverages using the steaming/ frothing
function.
Cappuccino is espresso topped with steamed and frothed milk. Frothing milk for
cappuccino takes practice. Do not be discouraged if it is not perfect the first time. The
milk should be half steamed (bottom of pitcher) and half froth (top of pitcher). It may
take a few times before you perfect this process.
For best results, we recommend frothing the milk in a separate pitcher and pouring
the milk into your coffee. The milk and pitcher should be cold. Do not use a pitcher,
which has just been washed in warm water. We also recommend a stainless steel
frothing pitcher and a beverage thermometer, if you own one, for preparing the best
froth and steamed milk.
1. The rst step in making cappuccino is to make espresso.
2. Follow the instructions in the “How to Use the Espresso Function” section to prepare
the espresso.
3. Fill a small stainless steel or ceramic pitcher 1/2 full with cold
milk and set next to machine. Skim or 2% milk will be the
easiest to froth.
4. You are now ready to froth and steam your milk after brewing
your coffee. The control panel lights (4 lights in the center)
should be solid blue, hold the pitcher under the frothing tube
ensuring the tip of the frothing tube is slightly immersed in
the milk, press the steam button “ ” (see gure 14) (the
steam button “ ” light blinks and then become solid blue
indicating it is ready to us).
5. Turn the side knob up to the steam position “ ” (see gure
15). Gently move the pitcher in a circular motion around the
steam nozzle for about 50 seconds (for 120 mL/ 4 oz., of
milk) or longer if warmer milk is desired. REMEMBER: The
milk and the pitcher should be very cold prior to frothing.
Figure 14
Figure 15
Figure 13

English-10
6. When the milk has doubled in volume, or, if you are using a beverage thermometer,
when the milk has reached 38°C (100°F), insert the frothing aid deeper into the milk
to further heat the milk. Do not heat milk above 65°C (150°F). To avoid splattering
of hot milk, do not let the tip of the frothing tube go above its surface. After frothing is
completed, turn the control knob back to the coffee/off position “ ”.
NOTE: If you wish to use the unit for another function, press again the steam button
“ ” to exit this feature, wait until the control panel lights (4 lights in the center)
become solid blue and then press the button for the new function you wish to use.
7. You are now ready to make cappuccino. REMEMBER: It is 1/3 espresso, 1/3
steamed milk and 1/3 frothed milk. Pour the espresso into a cup, which has the
capacity for at least 150 mL (5 ounces). Then add the steamed milk to the espresso
and spoon on the frothed milk on top.
8. Turn unit off “O” and unplug it from the electrical outlet. Allow the unit to cool.
9. Follow the instructions on “Cleaning your Espresso/Cappuccino Maker” section for
instructions on how to ush out any residual milk from the frothing tube. It is important

INTRODUCTION
Félicitations ! Vous venez d’acheter une cafetière Oster®expresso/cappuccino de qualité.
Cet appareil unique et pratique est conçu pour vous donner un délicieux café expresso/
cappuccino et ceci rapidement.
Expresso est une méthode utilisée pour faire du café qui utilise de l’eau très chaude sous
pression passée au travers de grains de café nement moulus. Populaire en Europe,
c’est un café avec beaucoup plus de saveur et plus fort que le café préparé avec une
cafetière goutte-à-goutte -.
La plupart de ceux qui boivent du café expresso en Europe le préfèrent cappuccino, une
boisson préparée avec un tiers de café expresso, un tiers de lait chauffé à la vapeur et un
tiers de mousse de lait. Préparer un expresso ou un cappuccino n’est pas la même chose
que préparer un café normal, cet appareil utilise de l’eau sous pression et nécessite des
précautions spéciales.
Veuillez lire soigneusement TOUTES les instructions, mesures de précautions,
remarques et recommandations de ce manuel avant d’utiliser l’appareil. Apres usage,
certaines parties et accessoires de l’appareil sont très chauds et ont besoin d’être
refroidis. Veuillez suivre les précautions d’usage et d’entretien an de garantir un long
usage sans problème de votre cafetière pour expresso/cappuccino. Veuillez conserver
ces instructions et y faire référence pour informations sur le nettoyage et l’entretien.
Vous pouvez utiliser votre Cafetière Oster®Expresso/Cappuccino avec du café moulu
ou bien des capsules E.S.E. (45 mm), ce qui rend la préparation des expressos courts
extrêmement pratique et versatile (Ristretto).
IMPORTANTES MESURES

BIEN CHOISIR LE CAFE
LE CAFE
Le café doit être fraîchement moulu et le grain bien grillé. Si vous le désirez, vous pouvez
essayer un café français ou italien. Un café moulu garde sa saveur jusqu’à 7 ou 8 jours,
à condition qu’il soit rangé dans un récipient à vide, dans un endroit frais et sombre. Ne
pas garder au réfrigérateur ou au congélateur. Il est recommandé de mouler les grains
juste avant de faire le café. Les grains de café rangés dans un récipient à vide garderont
leur saveur pendant environ 4 semaines.
