The large (two cup) sieve holds ap-

Coffee is always dispersed from both
spouts on the porta filter. When mak-
ing one cup, be sure your cup is cen-
tered underneath both spouts. (fig.
11). When making two espressos or
two cups of coffee, be sure to place
two cups underneath the porta filter
(fig. 10).

12. USING PRE-PACKED COFFEE
PODS
The special "pod" sieve allows you to
use pre-packed coffee pods (fig. 9).
(Please check with your local coffee
stores or check our website:
www.capresso.com under the
EspressoPRO machine for more infor-
mation.) Please be sure to use the
45mm diameter pods with your
EspressoPRO. (These are most
commonly available.) Other sizes do
not work with the EspressoPRO.
ATTENTION: Some pods have a small
tab that sticks out. Be sure to fold the
tab under before inserting the pod into
the pod sieve. (Failure to do so will re-
sult in water spilling out, etc.)
