How to use

To prepare an espresso, unscrew the portafilter and add finely ground coffee to the filter basket, tamping it down lightly. Secure the portafilter back onto the main body. Fill the water tank with hot water, ensuring it does not exceed the maximum capacity line. Assemble the device and unlock the piston by turning it. Hold the device firmly and pump repeatedly to build pressure. After a few initial pumps, the coffee will begin to flow into the cup. Continue pumping until the desired amount of espresso is extracted.

What to consider before purchase

• Requires access to hot water from an external source.
• Best results are achieved with finely ground coffee beans.
• Regular cleaning is necessary to maintain the internal pump mechanism.
• The device is intended for single-shot extraction per cycle.

Usage recommendations

For the best flavor profile, use freshly roasted coffee beans ground immediately before brewing. Always preheat the device by running a cycle with hot water before adding coffee to ensure optimal extraction temperature.
