INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You’re the proud new owner of a Sboly Steam Espresso, Latte
and Cappuccino Maker. Soon you’ll be brewing real espresso drinks just like
the coffee shop.
Espresso is used as a base for many other rich and delicious beverages such as
Cappuccinos and Lattes. A Cappuccino is made with about one third espresso,
one third steamed milk, and one third frothed milk. A Latte, on the other hand, is
a combination of espresso and steamed milk with a small layer of foam on top.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. Scalding may occur if the lid is removed during or immediately after the brewing cycles. Contents may be hot.
Allow to cool before opening the lid.
4. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may result in fire,
electrical shock or injury to persons.
5. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
6. Do not use outdoors.
7. To protect against fire, electric shock and injury, do not immerse cords, plugs or the appliance in water or any
other liquid.
8. Use only water in this appliance! Do not put any other liquids or foods in the water reservoir.
9. To disconnect, turn any control to OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.
10. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or is damaged
in any manner.
11. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
12. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
13. Always be sure water reservoir cap is tightened securely before turning appliance on.
14. To avoid possible burns to body part and/or other injury from hot steam and water, NEVER
open the water reservoir cap or portafilter while your Sboly Steam Espresso, Latte and Cappuccino
Maker is turned on or as long as there is pressure in the water reservoir.
15. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
16. Place the espresso maker on a hard, flat, level surface to avoid interruption of airflow underneath.
17. This glass jug is designed for use with your Sboly espresso maker. It must never be used on a range top
or in any oven, including a microwave oven.
18. Do not set a hot glass jug on a wet or cold surface.
19. Do not clean the glass jug with abrasive cleaners, steel wool pad or other abrasive materials.
20. DO NOT attempt to unscrew water reservoir cap OR remove portafilter without releasing pressure first.
21. Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as rinsing, washing, filling, or immersing a hot container with cold liquids.
22. Do not use a cracked glass jug or a mug having a loose or weakened handle.
23. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or
taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.
For appliances with service panels:
WARNING: Risk of Fire or Electric Shock. Do not remove this cover. No user serviceable parts inside.
Repair should be done by authorized service personnel only.
POLARIZED PLUGS
This appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). As a
safety feature to reduce the risk of
electrical shock, this plug is intended to
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not
attempt to defeat this safety feature or
modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits
loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC
outlet feels warm, do not use that outlet.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SBOLY

BEFORE FIRST USE, CLEAN AND PRIME YOUR MACHINE
WHAT YOU NEED ON HAND:
• Ceramic mug (included) or a stainless steel frothing pitcher.
3 • Coffee should be ground to a fine espresso grind that resembles
salt grains. Use a quality grinder or burr mill, such as a Sboly
burr mill.
• Milk for making cappuccinos or lattes.
• For best espresso drinks, we recommend using filtered
or bottled water.
CLEAN YOUR MACHINE!
5 Note: portafilter is not dishwasher safe, hand wash only.
1. Wash the glass jug, filter and portafilter
with mild detergent and a soft sponge or cloth.
5 2. Remove the water reservoir cap.
3. Fill water measuring cup with filtered water to the 4 cup mark and
pour into water reservoir.
4. Screw cap back onto the water reservoir.
5. Insert portafilter into the machine with no coffee from left to right.
This can be tricky the first time you try, so don’t worry. The best
way to learn is to look at the shape of the top of the portafilter. It
can be inserted by placing it from the left and locking it into the
right. This may require force. The handle should be aligned with
6 the lock symbol and pointing directly at you when standing in
6 front of the machine.
6. Place glass jug under the portafilter.
7. Turn the control knob on the left side of the machine to “Coffee.”
Keep the control knob on “Coffee” until there is no longer water
exiting the portafilter.
8. Be sure to turn the control knob to the “Off” position and unplug
the appliance.
CAUTION: Do not immerse the power cord, power plug or
coffeemaker in water or in any other liquid. Do not remove the water
reservoir cap or portafilter until you release pressure in the unit.

HOW TO MAKE ESPRESSO, CAPPUCCINO OR LATTE
CAUTION: Do not remove water reservoir cap or
portafilter until you release the pressure in the unit.
WATER PREP:
1 . Remove the water reservoir cap.
• For 2 or 4 servings of espresso, fill the water measuring cup with water to the
appropriate mark and pour into water reservoir.
• If making a cappuccino or latte, fill water glass jug with water up to the steam mark
and pour it into the reservoir.
2. Plug in the machine and turn control knob on the left side of the machine to “Coffee.”
3. Pour in your desired amount of cold milk into a the frothing pitcher, but allow enough room
for expansion of the foam (typically 1/3 or 1/2 of the top).
*Frothing texture is highly dependent upon the milk type used. 2% is recommended; whole
milk creates finer bubbles while skim milk creates larger bubbles.
7
4. Once the coffee begins to brew into the ceramic mug,
interrupt the brewing process by turning the control knob
to “Off,” place your frothing pitcher so that the frothing
wand is submerged about 1/2 -1” into the milk.
4
5. Turn the knob to “Steam.” This will take a few seconds to
heat up before bubbling. You should hear the steam coming
out. If it is silent, it may mean you are out of water and no
steam is coming out. If this happens, remove the frothing
pitcher from the frothing wand.
When you hear steam coming out, move the ceramic mug in
a circular motion until desired amount of froth is reached.
*It takes about 2 minutes to froth 4 oz. of milk to 165˚F heat.
5
6. Before removing the frothing pitcher from underneath the
frothing wand, turn the control knob back into the
“Coffee” position to complete the brewing process.
3. Finally, pour froth into your mug, then stir and enjoy.
*A latte has less foam and more steamed milk than a cappuccino. A cappuccino has 1/3
of espresso, 1/3 of steamed milk and 1/3 milk foam whereas a latte has 1/3 espresso, 2/3
steamed milk topped with milk foam.

HOW TO FROTH MILK
WATER PREP:
CAUTION: Do not remove water reservoir cap or
portafilter until you release the pressure in the unit.
1. Remove the water reservoir cap.
2. Fill the water glass jug to the steam line with
filtered water and pour into reservoir.
3. Screw cap back onto water reservoir.

2 TIME TO FROTH:
4. Pour in your desired amount of cold milk into the ceramic
mug or a frothing pitcher, but allow enough room for
expansion of the foam (typically 1/3 or 1/2 of the top).
*Frothing texture is highly dependent upon the milk type
used. 2% is recommended; whole milk creates finer
5 bubbles while skim milk creates larger bubbles.

5. Place your ceramic mug or frothing pitcher so that the
frothing wand is submerged into the milk.
About 1/2 -1” into the milk.
6. Turn the knob to “Steam.” This will take a few seconds
to heat up before bubbling. You should hear the steam
6 coming out. If it is silent, it may mean you are out of
63 water and no steam is coming out. If this happens,
remove the frothing pitcher from the frothing wand.
When you hear steam coming out, move the ceramic
mug in a circular motion until desired amount of froth is
reached. *It takes about 2 minutes to froth 4 oz. of milk
to 165˚F heat.
