“I'm confused when making espresso. The instructions say to switch it to "on" when you get the preferred amount of coffee. How do i know how long to let it run for a shot of espresso? I made an iced coffee this morning using it and it was watered down.”

Hello, since this is a manual unit, you will need to manually turn the device off to stop the pour. If you feel your unit is producing too watery of espresso, we recommend using a finer grind coffee ground or perform a descale of your unit.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Turn it on let it warm up until the green light shows make sure you insert enough coffee and you pack it down. One shot of espresso is 1 ounce of water two shots is 2 ounces etc. you can buy these neat Delonghi 2 ounce glass cups that will compliment your machine
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.A proper shot of espresso is one ounce so any small measuring device should work. In my experience a double, or even a triple shot glass is the easiest to use. It will allow you to brew a double shot and the wider mouth makes dispensing easier
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello my question is i have the espresso machine for about 7 months and it water when im not making coffee and it started to do that when i started to use the steamer and in this case what can i do because now the espresso is not as creamy when im making lattes can someone please help me because my warranty goes out thank you
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.A shot of espresso is just that.. a shot. About 2 ounces. Best to add a shot of espresso to regular iced coffee for the caffeine boost. When done and turned to "on" it will heat up for another shot. Otherwise just turn it off. Enjoy!
