ONGRATULATIONS! You are the owner of a MR. COFFEE Espresso and Cappuccino
THE
COFFEE
Maker. Please read all of the instructions in this manual carefully before you begin
to use this appliance. Proper care and maintenance will ensure the long life of this
appliance and its trouble-free operation. Save these instructions and refer to them often
for cleaning and care tips.
The coffee should be a freshly ground, dark, espresso roast variety. You may buy
®
whole coffee beans and grind them yourself at home using a MR. COFFEE Burr Mill
®
or a MR. COFFEE Bean Grinder. Store whole beans in an air-tight container, in a cool,
dark area. You do not need to store them in a refrigerator or freezer. If you buy pre-ground
coffee, plan to use the coffee within 7 to 8 days for best flavor. Store pre-ground coffee
in an air-tight container and keep in a cool, dark area.

This is a vital step in the espresso making process. The coffee must be ground fine,
but not too fine. If you buy pre-ground coffee or have it ground, make sure you get an
espresso grind.

• If the grind is too fine, water will not flow through the coffee, even under pressure.
Coffee that is ground too fine looks like powder and feels like flour when rubbed
between your fingers.

• If the grind is too coarse, water flows through the coffee too fast,
preventing a full-flavored extraction.

Your New MR. COFFEE Espresso and Cappuccino Maker was designed to make brewing
fresh espresso and cappuccino at home easy. Several hints will help you make quality
espresso and frothed milk drinks time after time. First, always start with fresh, cold water
in the water reservoir. Be sure that all parts of your machine are cleaned from previous uses.
You can preheat the cups you brew espresso into by rinsing them with hot water.
This will help keep your espresso hot after it is brewed.

The quality, roast, freshness, grind and origin of the coffee beans you use will vary the
taste of your espresso. When you brew espresso, the grounds should be “tamped” in the
filter cup. Tamping is the process of slightly packing the espresso coffee grounds down in
the filter cup. Your MR. COFFEE Espresso/Cappuccino Machine comes with a pre-measured
coffee scoop tamping tool. NOTE: Do not overpack the grounds.

HOW

MAKE
CAPPUCCINO
BREWING
ESPRESSO
Cappuccino is espresso topped with steamed and frothed milk. Frothing milk for cappuccino
takes practice. Do not be discouraged if it is not perfect the first time. The milk should be
half steamed (bottom of pitcher) and half frothed (top of the pitcher). It may take a few
times before you perfect this process.
1. Make sure the On/Off switch (see Diagram on Page 4) is in the OFF position
and the brew and steam switches are off.
®
2. Plug in your new MR. COFFEE Espresso and Cappuccino Maker.
3. Remove the water reservoir and fill with fresh, cold water. Be sure to keep the water
reservoir filled above the “min” water level marking printed on the reservoir.
For the best results, we recommend frothing milk in a separate pitcher and pouring the
milk into your coffee. The milk and pitcher should be cold. Do not use a pitcher which
has just been washed in warm water. Use skim or 2% milk.
4. Replace the water reservoir into the machine, making sure that it slides completely into
place. When inserted properly, the end of the water reservoir will be even with the base.
Make sure the end of the hose is down in the water.
We also recommend a stainless steel frothing pitcher and a specialty beverage thermometer,
if you own one, for preparing the best froth and steamed milk.
5. Turn the On/Off Switch to the “On” position so that the On Light is illuminated.
6. While the water is heating, insert filter in filter holder.
1. The first step in making cappuccino is to make espresso.Therefore, fill the water reservoir
with cold water. Never use warm or hot water to fill the water reservoir.
7. Put grounds into filter cup using 1 scoop for one 20-ounce serving and 2 scoops
for two 20-ounce servings.
2. Follow steps in “Brewing Espresso”.
3. Fill a small stainless steel pitcher 1/3 to 1/2 way with cold milk. We recommend using a
8. Use the bottom of the scoop to press the coffee grounds so that they are flattened down
and smoothed over. Gently remove any excess grounds from the rim of the filter holder.
®
MR. COFFEE frothing pitcher (EFP1) or any other pitcher that holds about 10 - 12 ounces
and is around 5 inches tall. The pitcher should be cold. Do not use a pitcher that has just
been washed with warm water.
9. Insert the filter holder into the machine. Make sure the thumb guard is flipped back and
not resting on top of the filter. Insert filter holder approximately 45 degrees to the left,
using the line on the Brew Head as a guide. When properly aligned, slide the filter
handle to the right until the handle is in the locked position. The handle will be
in the “Lock” area and should feel snug. YOU DO NOT NEED TO OVERTIGHTEN.
4. Make sure the Espresso Machine is turned on and that there is water in the water reservoir.
The brew ready indicator light will go off when the machine is ready to steam milk.
5. Press the Steam
Start/Stop Button. The steam ready light will come on when
the unit is ready to froth milk. The brew ready light will stay on.
10. Place a cup underneath the filter holder spouts. Espresso will brew out of both filter
spouts, so use a cup that is wide enough to catch liquid from both spouts or brew
into two cups placed right next to each other.
6. Place the steaming tube in the pitcher with milk. Hold the pitcher so that the
steaming tube is submerged in milk and close to the bottom of the pitcher.

7. Turn the Steam/Froth Control Knob counterclockwise
to begin steaming.
The filter handle and filters should be cleaned each time you brew espresso. To clean,
remove filter handle by turning the handle approximately 45 degrees left of center.
The filter handle will release down from its locked position. Use caution as the filter
may still contain hot water floating on top of the coffee grounds. Knock the used espresso
grounds out while holding the filter in place by holding the thumb guard lock firmly
against the filter cup. Use caution as the filter cup and holder will be very hot. Rinse the
filter cup and holder out thoroughly with water. It is not recommended to put the filter
or filter holder in the dishwasher. If you are not going to use the machine again for
some time, do not reinsert the filter holder on the brew head; this will lengthen the
service life of the filter seal.
The steam ready light will go off while you are steaming milk. This is normal
and you may continue steaming until you have completely steamed your milk.
USE CAUTION: Steam emitted from the frothing arm is very HOT. As the milk
heats up, the frothing pitcher will become very HOT!
8. The specially designed frothing attachment requires very little effort to produce thick
and frothy steamed milk. Steam the milk until the desired consistency is achieved
or until the frothed milk reaches the top of the pitcher. Slightly moving the pitcher
up and down while steaming (and keeping the frothing tube immersed in milk)
will help produce extra froth. When you are finished steaming, turn the Steam Control
Knob clockwise until it stops. Do not over tighten. Press the steam start / stop button
to complete the frothing process.
Remove the Water Reservoir and empty out any remaining water. Do not wash the
Water Reservoir in the dishwasher.
Remove the Drip Tray and Overflow Grid from the machine and rinse with warm,
soapy water. Do not wash these parts in the dishwasher.
9. When the Steam Control Knob is closed, you will notice the machine releases
some steam. This is the machine releasing the pressure it has generated during
the steaming process and is normal.
CLEANING THE BREW HEAD
The Brew Head may need cleaning after prolonged use. You may wipe off the brew head
with a damp cloth to remove any old espresso grounds. If the brewing sieve (the underside
of the brew head) is particularly dirty, run a few cycles of plain water through the machine.
Operate the machine as if you were going to brew espresso, but do not put coffee grounds
in the filter cup. Secure the filter handle in place and operate for 30 seconds several times.
This will run hot water through the brew head and clean out any old grounds.
IMPORTANT
Clean the steam nozzle and frothing attachment immediately after each use. Fill a
pitcher halfway with water and run the steaming feature again for about 20 seconds.
This will clean out the inside of the steaming tube. Use a damp cloth to wipe off the
exterior of the steaming tube and frother attachment. You may want to rinse the frother
attachment with warm, soapy water. If the end of the steam tube becomes blocked with
dry milk, use a sewing needle or safety pin to clean out the small hole.
CLEANING THE FROTHING TUBE
The Frothing Tube should be cleaned immediately after every use to prevent steamed milk
from drying on the tube. Fill a pitcher half way with water and run the steaming feature
again for about 20 seconds. This will clean out the inside of the steaming tube.
Use a damp cloth to wipe off the exterior of the steaming tube and frother attachment.
You may wish to rinse the frother attachment with warm, soapy water. If the end of
the steam tube becomes blocked with dry milk, use a sewing needle or safety pin
to clean out the small hole.
A
TTENTION
After using the steaming feature of your machine, the heating system is at its highest
temperature. If you wish to prepare more espresso immediately after steaming milk,
the heating system should be cooled down to keep from “burning” your espresso.
When the steam ready indicator light goes off, your machine is now ready to brew
espresso at the perfect temperature.
DE-LIMING
CLEANING
The service life of your Espresso Maker will be lengthened if you de-lime it regularly.
Your Espresso Maker may be de-limed using white household vinegar. The frequency
of de-liming depends upon the hardness of the water used. The following table gives
the suggested cleaning intervals.
When you are finished brewing espresso and steaming milk, begin cleaning by turning
the unit off and unplugging the power cord.

The espresso brews too slowly . . .
• Do not tamp (pack) grounds so firmly.
• Use coarser espresso grounds.
• De-lime the appliance.
Fill about 18 ounces of vinegar into the Water Reservoir. Place a sufficiently large container
in the middle of the drip tray. Allow about one-third of the vinegar to run through the
system by operating the machine as if you were making espresso, but without putting
coffee grounds in the filter cups. Switch the machine off again and leave the vinegar to
work in for 10 to 15 minutes. Then run the rest of it through the system in one cycle.
It may be necessary to repeat the de-liming if the lime deposits are heavy. After the
last cycle, run two reservoirs of clear, fresh water through the system to clean all vinegar
from the machine. Once the cleaning cycle is complete, clean all removable parts in warm,
soapy water.
The espresso runs out of the side or top of the filter holder . . .
