Congratulations! You have selected a quality MR. COFFEE ® Steam Espresso/Cappuccino Maker.
This unique appliance has been designed to provide you with delicious espresso/cappuccino
quickly and conveniently.
Espresso is a unique method of coffee brewing in which hot water is forced through finely ground
coffee. Popular in Europe, it is a far richer and more full-bodied brew than regular American coffee.
Because of its richness, espresso is usually served in 1.5- to 2-oz. portions, in demitasse cups.
Most espresso drinkers outside of Europe prefer cappuccino, a drink made with about one third
espresso, one third steamed milk, and one third frothed milk. Preparing espresso or cappuccino is
very different from brewing regular drip coffee in that this appliance operates under pressure
and requires special attention.
Please read ALL of the instructions, cautions, notes and attentions in this Instruction Manual
carefully before you begin to use this appliance. When this unit is used, it creates a vacuum
as it cools. It is very important for this unit to cool down approximately 15 minutes
after each brew cycle in order for the vacuum to be released and the cap and brew
basket to safely be removed. Proper care and maintenance will ensure the long life
of the MR. COFFEE
® Steam Espresso/Cappuccino Maker and its trouble-free operation.
Save these Instructions and refer to them often for cleaning and care tips.
