5.1. Making Espresso
- Preheat: Ensure the machine is powered on and has completed its preheating cycle (indicated by the display). The 1350W heating system allows for optimal temperature in approximately 30 seconds.
- Grind Coffee: Use freshly ground espresso beans. A fine grind is recommended.
- Fill Portafilter: Place the single shot filter basket into the portafilter. Fill the basket with ground coffee.
- Tamp: Use the provided tamper to press the coffee grounds firmly and evenly. Ensure the surface is level.
- Attach Portafilter: Insert the portafilter into the group head and twist firmly to lock it into place.
- Select Temperature: Use the 'TEMP' button on the touchscreen to select your desired brewing temperature (194°F for dark roast, 198°F for medium roast, 201°F for light roast). This NTC Precise Temperature Control ensures optimal water temperature for balanced flavors.
- Brew Espresso: Place an espresso cup under the portafilter spout. Press the 'Espresso' button on the touchscreen. The machine will begin extracting espresso using its 20-bar pump, optimized for 9-bar extraction pressure for rich crema.
- Stop Brewing: The machine will automatically stop after a preset volume. You can also manually stop it by pressing the 'Espresso' button again.

5.2. Making Cold Brew
The Canoly CM1861E features a dedicated cold brew pipeline for quick preparation.
- Prepare Coffee: Use coarse ground coffee for cold brew.
- Fill Filter Basket: Place the filter basket (without tamping) into the portafilter and fill with coarse ground coffee.
- Attach Portafilter: Insert the portafilter into the group head and lock it into place.
- Brew Cold Brew: Place a glass with ice under the portafilter spout. Press the 'Cold Brew' button on the touchscreen. The machine will dispense refreshing, low-acid cold brew in approximately 3 minutes.

5.3. Using the Steam Wand (Milk Frother)
The powerful steam wand creates barista-quality microfoam for milk-based beverages.
- Prepare Milk: Fill a stainless steel frothing pitcher with cold milk (dairy or non-dairy) to just below the spout.
- Activate Steam: Press the 'Steam' button on the touchscreen. The machine will begin heating to steam temperature.
- Purge Wand: Once the steam light is steady, position the steam wand over the drip tray and briefly open the steam knob to release any condensed water. Close the knob.
- Froth Milk: Immerse the tip of the steam wand just below the surface of the milk. Open the steam knob. Angle the pitcher to create a swirling motion. As the milk expands, lower the pitcher slightly to keep the tip just below the surface. Continue until desired volume and temperature are reached.
- Clean Wand: Close the steam knob. Immediately wipe the steam wand with a damp cloth to remove any milk residue. Briefly open the steam knob again to clear any milk from inside the wand.

5.4. Independent Hot Water Function
The machine can also dispense hot water for other uses.
- Place Cup: Position a cup under the steam wand.
- Dispense Hot Water: Turn the steam knob to the hot water position. Hot water will dispense from the steam wand.
- Stop Water: Turn the steam knob back to the closed position to stop the flow.
This function is suitable for preparing tea, oatmeal, or warming cups.

- Clean the steam wand immediately after each use as described in Section 5.3.
- Group Head Cleaning: Periodically, use a damp cloth to wipe the group head to remove any coffee residue.
- Descaling: Depending on water hardness and usage, descaling should be performed every 2-3 months. Follow the instructions provided with a suitable descaling solution for espresso machines.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your machine, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No coffee dispenses | Water tank empty; pump not primed; coffee too finely ground/over-tamped; clogged filter. | Fill water tank; run initial rinse cycle; use coarser grind/less pressure; clean filter basket. |
| Coffee brews too quickly/weak | Coffee too coarsely ground; not enough coffee; insufficient tamping. | Use finer grind; increase coffee amount; tamp more firmly. |
| No steam from wand | Machine not at steam temperature; wand clogged. | Wait for steam indicator; clean steam wand thoroughly. |
| Water leaking from machine | Water tank not seated correctly; drip tray full; seals damaged. | Ensure water tank is secure; empty drip tray; contact customer support if seals are damaged. |
