SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS & IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS WARNING: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way.

To disconnect the appliance, grasp the plug and remove it from the outlet. Never use the product if the power cord shows signs of abrasion or excessive wear.

Quick Start: How to Make Coffee How to Add More Froth or Froth Milk Separately The espresso machine allows you to add more frothed milk to your coffee drink and prepare frothed milk on its own to use to make a macchiato or to add to hot chocolate.
Keep It Clean How to Clean the Portafilter and Brew Head This method of cleaning is useful if you make espresso only.

Keep It Clean How to Clean Milk Frother Internal Parts Over time, milk residue can build up in the frother’s internal parts, requiring a deep cleaning. Depending on frequency of use, we recommend doing this deep cleaning a few times per year, or whenever you notice a decrease in the amount or quality of the milk foam.

Keep It Clean Carefully remove all the small components and rinse all parts thoroughly with the included brush and warm, soapy water. (We recommend washing individually by hand in a bowl so as not to lose any parts.) Reassemble all parts by pushing them back into place as shown in the diagram.
