Operating Instructions

Making Espresso

Your machine features 20 Bar professional pump pressure and pre-soaking technology for optimal extraction and flavor.

1. Fill the water tank with water.
2. Add ground coffee to the portafilter (7) and tamp evenly using the tamper with spoon (16). Choose between single (5), double (6), or ESE pod (4) filters based on your preference.
3. Place the portafilter into the espresso machine and lock it by turning the handle to the right.
4. Press the ON/OFF button (15) and wait for the espresso machine to preheat. Once the temperature is displayed on the LED screen (2), select your desired coffee mode (Espresso or Espresso x 2).

Temperature Control

The LED display shows the water temperature. You can choose from three adjustable extraction temperatures: 192°F (Low), 198°F (Optimal), and 203°F (High) to suit your taste.

Milk Frothing

The powerful steam wand (13) allows you to create rich, barista-grade microfoam milk for lattes and cappuccinos. The steam wand is 360° adjustable and removable for easy cleaning.

1. Fill a pitcher with cold milk.
2. Insert the steam nozzle (14) into the milk surface, about 0.4 inches deep.
3. Turn the steam knob (11) to the "steam" position.
4. Check to see if the milk is swirling. As the milk level rises, lower the pitcher so that the steam nozzle remains below the surface of the milk.
5. When the desired foam is achieved, immerse the steam wand halfway into the milk.
6. Milk is ready when the pitcher is too hot to touch for 3 seconds.
7. Remove the pitcher from the steam wand.
8. Knock and swirl the pitcher, if needed, to get rid of large bubbles.
9. Pour the frothed milk into the coffee.

• For hot water only, press the "Americano & Hot Water" button twice consecutively.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Water Tank

Portafilter and Filters

Troubleshooting

• No coffee coming out: Ensure the water tank is filled and properly seated. Perform the first-use air release procedure if not already done. Check that the portafilter is correctly locked.
• Water leftover in the coffee holder: This can occur if the coffee grounds are not tamped firmly enough or if the grind is too coarse. Experiment with tamping pressure and grind size.
• Buttons flashing (over-pressure protection): If the single and double shot buttons are flashing, it indicates over-pressure. This can happen if the coffee grind is too fine or tamped too hard. Release pressure by pressing the steam button or turning the steam knob. Adjust grind size or tamping pressure.
• Machine not heating up: Ensure the power switch is on and the machine is plugged into a working outlet. Allow approximately 50 seconds for preheating.
• Used or unclean machine received: Contact URintells Cuising via Amazon for assistance.
