cilio RIGOLETTO Espresso Maker

Experience the charm of an Italian street café right in your kitchen with the cilio RIGOLETTO Espresso Maker. Preparing coffee the traditional way is simple:

• Unscrew the espresso maker by taking hold of the upper and lower parts and turning (one part) anti-clockwise. Remove the funnel filter.
• Fill the lower part of the espresso maker with enough water so that the water level rises to just below the safety valve at the most. Under no circumstances must the safety valve ever be underwater.
• Place the funnel filter back inside, fill it with espresso coffee powder and smooth the powder down. Do not press the powder down hard into the funnel filter!
• Screw the upper and lower parts back together by taking hold of both parts and turning (one part) in a clockwise direction. Ensure that the sieve and the gasket are both properly inserted.
• Place the espresso maker on a heat source and heat it up. To avoid overboiling and to ensure that the espresso maker remains in good condition, it is recommended that you do not allow the espresso to reach too high a temperature. The espresso coffee will rise with the slightest development of steam and will begin to gurgle quietly into the upper receptacle. Remove the espresso maker from the heat source immediately as soon as this gurgling ceases.
• It is recommended that you stir the espresso a little using a spoon prior to pouring it into a cup.
