3. Note: You can only make one espresso / coffee at a time when using pre-ground coffee.
Tip: Use cups that have been previously heated by rinsing them with hot water or by leaving them
for at least 20 minutes on the cup warmer.
Note: For more tips on making coffee hotter, see "Tips on Making Hotter Coffee" section of the
manual.

push the adjustable coffee spout up to accommodate the size.

time by pressing the button (Figure 14).

espresso / coffee you want to brew.
