Now anyone can enjoy gourmet espresso-based drinks from the comfort of home--no more unnecessary trips to the cafe. Make a Variety of Coffeehouse Drinks Effortlessly brew anything from rich aromatic espressos, creamy cappuccinos, and luscious lattes to more decadent variations like toffee lattes, cafe mochas, espresso martinis, and caramel cappuccinos. And that"s just the tip of the whipped, frothy topping--a recipe guide loaded with 20 different delightfully delectable recipes comes included. Convenient & Easy to Use With user-friendly controls that even a novice can master, the sleek machine makes it easy to brew delicious coffeehouse drinks in minutes--with just one simple touch. The unit"s one-touch control panel allows for selecting from a single- or double-shot of espresso, cappuccino, or latte, and handy indicator lights highlight the current selection. Even more, the machine supplies 15 bars of pressure to ensure fabulous results, while its automatic milk frother turns milk into a light, creamy foam--perfect for drizzling with chocolate, sprinkling with cinnamon or nutmeg, or for simply oohing and ahhing over. To begin, fill the removable water reservoir and slide it into the back of the unit. Then pour the milk of your choice (whole, skim, soy, almond, etc) into the removable milk reservoir, which can be stored in the fridge as needed. Next, place the single- or double-shot filter inside the portafilter, depending on the type and size of your beverage. Add the espresso grounds, tamping them down firmly, and attach the portafilter to the unit. Position your cup under the brew head and aim the frothed-milk dispensing tube to the center of your cup. If making espresso, the pull-out height-adjustment cup tray can be used for raising up smaller demitasse cups. Next, turn the froth control knob to adjust the froth amount to match your choice of beverage or foam preference. Finally, using the one-touch preset buttons, select your desired beverage and size by pushing the corresponding button. Voila--the Café Barista espresso maker takes care of the rest. Additional highlights include custom, froth, and clean buttons; a removable drip tray; and a side-mounted on/off switch. Plus, all parts, except for the portafilter, are top-rack dishwasher-safe for quick, convenient cleanup.
