Fill the portafilter with espresso beans (left) or coffee beans (right). There is one button for 1 cup and one button for 2 cups. Select the 1-cup button when making 1 coffee and use the filter with a single spout. Select the 2-cup button when making 2 coffees and use the filter with a double spout.   The machine will automatically stop once the correct amount has been dispensed.   3. Use the automatic pump to grind and dose the coffee in the portafilter The machine will give 2 pumps to dose the filter   4. Insert the portafilter into the machine to brew the coffee.
