vary is the coarseness of the coffee grounds

and this will vary depending on the bean. For

example to achieve a slower espresso pour

rate use a finer grind and a coarser grind for

a faster espresso pour rate.

Preheat Glasses

Tip: Ensure the coffee tamp is dry because if

it is wet the coffee grinds will stick to it.

1.Preheat the glasses/cups by filling them

with hot water as this will assist to preserve

the crema of the espresso. Set the glasses/

cups aside.

The Espresso Pour

8.Lock the filter handle onto the group head

(19)(20).

Preheat Filter Handle and Filter Basket

2.Select the appropriate filter basket and

place it into filter handle (14).

9.Empty the glasses/cups and place below

the pouring spouts (21).

Tip: Use the one cup filter basket for a single

serve of espresso and the two cup filter

5.Using the measuring spoon supplied, place

finely ground coffee into the filter basket

(16).

6.Rest the filter handle with the filter basket

in position onto the benchtop. Take the

coffee tamp, apply firm level packing

pressure (17), twisting 90 degrees to

polish the grounds. This seals the surface

of the coffee cake.

Caring for your Espresso Machine

13. Remove the filter handle from the group

head (23).

14. Discard the used coffee grinds from the

filter basket (24).

Tip: After each use of the espresso machine

we recommend that a small amount of water

is cycled through the group head as this will

wash out any old or used coffee grinds stuck

to the underside of the group head. Simply

turn the operating dial to the espresso

setting and allow some water to run through.

7.Brush any excess coffee grounds from

around the edge of the filter basket (18).

Important: Be sure not to over dose the filter

basket with coffee.

Guide to milk texturing

Milk texturing is the steaming of milk. The

steam does two things, firstly it heats the

milk and secondly the steam mixes air

with the milk to form an ‘emulsion’ of tiny

bubbles that gives a silky velvet texture.

Similar to making an espresso, perfecting the

art of milk texturing takes time and practice.

6. Angle the jug so that the steam wand is

resting on the spout of the jug and lower

the jug until the tip of the steam nozzle

is just below the surface of the milk. This

will start to create a whirlpool action in

the milk (29).

Note: Do not allow the steam to spurt

unevenly or it will create aerated froth/large

bubbles. If this is happening raise the jug so

that the steam nozzle is lowered deeper into

the milk. Remember the ideal consistency is

a silky velvet texture.

Tip: Remember espresso is the foundation

for all café style drinks and the milk is the

variable.

Before starting to prepare for milk texturing,

ensure the 'steam/hot water' switch in the

steam

setting.

7. As the steam heats and textures the milk,

the level of the milk in the jug will begin

to rise. As this happens follow the level

of the milk by lowering the jug, always

keeping the tip of the steam nozzle just

below the surface.

1. Determine how much milk is needed

based on the number of cups being made

or the size of the texturing jug.

Tip: Keep in mind that the volume of milk

will increase or ’stretch’ during the texturing.

8. Once the foam is created raise the jug

until the steam nozzle is in the centre of

the milk (30).

2. Pour cold refrigerated milk into a

stainless steel jug, between ½ to ²/ full.

Tip: Store the stainless steel jug in the fridge

so that it is well chilled. Also be sure not to

rinse the jug with warm water before use.

Tip: The amount of foam required will vary

depending on the drinks being made, for

example a cappuccino requires more foam

than a flat white.

3. Purge the steam wand of any water.

With the steam wand positioned over the

drip tray activate the steam function by

turning the operating dial to the

milk is heated to between 60-65°C by

turning the operating dial to the off

position (31).

steam setting (25). Once any water has

been purged close the steam by turning

the operating dial to the off position (26).

Tip: If you don’t have a thermometer a good

indication that the correct temperature has

been reached is when you are unable to leave

the palm of your hand against the side of the

jug for more than 3 seconds.

4. Swing the steam wand to the side of the

espresso machine (27).

5. Place the steam wand into the milk so

that the nozzle is about a centimetre

below the surface and activate the steam

function by turning the operating dial to

11. With the jug in hand tap the jug on

the bench top to release the trapped

air bubbles and then swirl the jug in a

circular motion until the milk becomes

shiny and no bubbles remain, this helps

the milk and froth combine for an even

consistency. By swirling the milk you can

see the foam in the jug swirling with your

movement this will enable you to judge

the thickness of your foam.

Espresso Recipes

ESPRESSO (SHORT BLACK)

MACCHIATO

Espresso is a concentrated, full bodied coffee

with a stable layer of cream on top – known

as ‘crema’. An espresso is the foundation of

all café coffee. Variations are achieved by

adding different amounts of milk and froth.

Macchiato, Italian for ‘to stain or mark’.

Traditionally served as a standard espresso

with a dash of milk and a small dollop of

froth into the middle of the ‘crema’.

Another old favourite, the Flat White is

an espresso with steamed milk, served in

a regular coffee cup or mug. The layer of

frothed milk on top should be 2mm to seal

the coffee.

A standard espresso with hot water, served in

Care and Cleaning

The coffee making process involves extracting

oils out of coffee grinds to make espresso

coffee. Deposits of these oils build up over

time and affect the taste of the coffee and

operation of the espresso machine.

Regular cleaning to remove these oils is

essential and will maintain the quality of the

coffee the espresso machine produces and

result in less maintenance being required.

This is easy to do by following a few quick

and easy cleaning steps after each coffee

making session;

To clean the group head of any old coffee

grinds cycle water through and wipe the

group head and around the inside rim with a

damp cloth.

Should the holes in the filter baskets become

clogged with coffee granules use a fine

bristled brush to remove them.

Important: Should the filter remain blocked

after normal cleaning, supplied with your

espresso machine is a cleaning pin. The

cleaning pin for the filter is the GREY pin

located under the base of the water reservoir

(39)(40). With the cleaning pin insert it into

the single hole in the base of the filter (41).

 Cycle water through the group head,

 Purge steam through the steam wand,

 Wipe the steam wand clean with a damp

Group head rubber seal

cloth immediately after use,

The group head seal is located on the

underside of the group head and creates

a seal against the filter handle during the

espresso pour.

Note: During long periods of non-use we

recommend that the filter handle not be

left attached to the group head as this will

reduce the life of the seal.

 Remove the filter basket from the filter

handle and clean away any old coffee oils,

and

 Empty the drip tray and rinse.

Important: Never wash any of the espresso

machine parts or accessories in the

dishwasher.

Over time the seal will lose its elasticity

and require replacement, depending on use

usually every 12 months. Signs that the seal

is deteriorating are when the filter handle

cannot create the necessary seal and steam

escapes from around the group head during

the espresso pour.

Note: Contact Sunbeam on 1800 025 059

should you think that the group head seal

needs replacing.

Drip tray and grill

Remove the grill and drip tray at regular

intervals to empty (36) (37). Clean with

water and a little non-abrasive washing up

liquid, rinse and dry.

Over time it is normal for the inside of the

drip tray to be stained by the oils in the

coffee.

Note: Ensure that when you are replacing the

drip tray and grill that the plastic lining is in

position (38).

Cup warming plate and exterior

Wipe over the unit with a damp cloth and

wipe dry. Do not use abrasives or metal

scourers as these will scratch the exterior

surface.

Group head, filter handle & filter baskets

The filter baskets and filter handle should be

rinsed with warm water after each use and

then dried thoroughly.

Care and Cleaning (continued)

Steam wand

Important: Never clean the steam wand with

an abrasive pad as this will damage the

steam wand.

Should the steam wand become blocked,

supplied with the espresso machine is a

cleaning pin. The cleaning pin for the steam

wand is the BLACK pin located under the

base of the water reservoir (39)(43).

With the cleaning pin insert it into the hole

in the base of the steam nozzle (44). Should

the steam wand remain blocked unscrew the

steam nozzle from the steam wand. Clean

the steam nozzle by once again using the

cleaning pin then flush under running water.

Keeping the steam arm clean is essential

to ensure maximum efficiency of the steam

function. A build up of caramelised/dried

milk on the steam wand will impair the

steaming and texturing ability of the espresso

machine.

Important: Wipe the steam wand clean with a

damp cloth immediately after each use and

purge a small amount of steam.

Should the milk dry/caramelise on the

steam wand, simply wrap the wand with

a clean damp cloth, turn the steam wand

over the drip tray and turn the steam on for

approximately 10 seconds (42). With the

cloth still on the steam wand leave to soak

for about 5 minutes and you will find that

after this time the dry/caramelised milk will

easily wipe away. Repeat process if still dirty.

Descaling

Scale is a surface build up of minerals that

naturally occur over time in all appliances

that are involved with the heating of water.

Therefore the espresso machine will require

occasional descaling. It is recommended

that the espresso machine is descaled every

4-6 months, this will vary depending on the

frequency of use.

2.Should the filter handle be attached to

the group head remove it, rinse thoroughly

under running water and set aside.

3.Using a screwdriver unscrew the brewing

filter/shower screen from the underside of

the group head.

4.Remove and set aside the filter/screen,

washer and screw in a safe place.

Descaling solution

Important: Be careful not to lose the filter/

screen, washer and screw once you have

disassembled the group head.

Use any of the following when descaling the

espresso machine:

5.Using a small brush scrub in and around

the area at the brewing head, removing all

coffee granules.

 Sunbeam Espresso Machine Descaling

Tablets

 Sunbeam Liquid Descaler, or

6.Place a sufficiently large container under
