The Master 5000 has an initial heat up time of just over two minutes. It brews espresso using a 15 BAR pressure pump. It will brew a single shot of espresso in 15 seconds, and a double shot in 20 seconds, however these times can be programmed to your liking. Heat up time for the steam function is 45 seconds with the average heat time for an 8 ounce cappuccino being 1 minute and a 12 ounce latte being 1.5 minutes: Sophisticated, Yet Easy To Operate . The Master 5000 was designed so that anyone, regardless of their experience could easily master the art of making great coffee house drinks. The control panel has just 2 buttons, which include one programmable button for brewing (small coffee or espresso and a large coffee or espresso) and a steam activation button. It also has a dial that controls the strength of your coffee from strong (espresso) to mild for coffee. The knob on the side of the machine controls the flow of steam or instant hot water depending on what mode you are in. A series of lights clearly indicate what mode you are in and the status of the machine: Press the brew button once for a single espresso or coffee. Pushing the brew button twice quickly will put a double shot of espresso or coffee in your cup. Utilize the flexibility of this machine�s brewing options by varying the water volume up to 7 ounces per brewing cycle. By experimenting with the water volume and coffee blends you can fine-tune your coffee: Make Perfect Foam like The Pros . The Master 5000 is equipped with a steam wand and milk-frothing tip that insures loads of foam for lattes and cappuccino with little or no effort on your part. You can also remove the frothing tip and use the standard steam wand if you prefer to have more control over the consistency of the foam. The steam wand is conveniently located and swivels to accommodate frothing pitchers ranging from 12 oz. to 20 oz. in size: The Master 5000 is equipped with an instant hot water feature. By turning the steam/hot water knob on the right side of the machine hot water will dispense from the steam wand. Use this feature for tea, Americano, and pre-warming or rinsing your cup: 2 Programmable Buttons for Cup Selection . Just two buttons control coffee brewing. One is for brewing a small cup of coffee or espresso and one is for larger cups of coffee or long espresso (known as a lungo). You can also program the volume of coffee that the machine will brew for each coffee button. This program will remain until it is changed, even if the power is turned off. When the coffee button is pressed, the machine will grind just the right amount of coffee beans, place the grounds into the brewing system, extract your coffee or espresso, and clean up after itself in one complete step. By pressing the brew button once, the machine will make one espresso or coffee and if pressed twice, two shots of espresso or larger cup of coffee: Espresso, Cafe Crème or Coffee? . The machine can do it so why try making a CafÃ(c) CrÃ(c)me! It�s simple with this machine�s ability to adjust for the coarseness of the ground, allowing you to brew a CafÃ(c) CrÃ(c)me, often referred to as Swiss brewed coffee for the country that made it popular. Here�s the difference. Espresso uses a finer ground bean to create a dense pack that restricts the water flow through the grounds, hence the very strong, intense flavor. It also takes a little longer to brew, anywhere between 15 to 20 seconds for 1.5 ounces: For a CafÃ(c) CrÃ(c)me, (or crema coffee) a courser ground is needed, a simple adjustment on this great machine. This coarser ground allows for more water to pass through faster, resulting in a frothy layer of coffee that floats on the top, the crema. Aromatic and rich, it is not as intense a coffee as the espresso but equally delicious. Most people gracefully retire their drip coffee maker after they try cafÃ(c) crème coffee from a super automatic espresso/coffee machine. This feature also makes the Solis Master 5000 a natural replacement for traditional coffee makers: Coffee Strength Function . You can also adjust the dosage of ground coffee that the machine uses each time it makes a cup of coffee from 6-9 grams. The average shot of espresso uses about 7 grams of ground coffee: Pre-infusion Brew System . Aroma and maximum flavor extraction is insured thanks to the pre-brew system. The two-step pre-infusion cycle moistens and conditions the ground coffee, which maximizes flavor extraction to increase the thick crema on your espresso. The machine accomplishes this by infusing (or presoaking) the fresh coffee grounds with a dash of hot water for 2 seconds. Thereafter, it completes the brewing process by infusing the remainder of the predetermined water through the coffee grounds. The result is a superior cup of espresso or coffee: Additional Product Features, Maintenance & Information . Professional Quality Adjustable Coffee Grinder . All Solis super automatic coffee machines feature a high quality coffee grinder. Residing just below the coffee bean hopper, when activated it draws coffee beans into its Swiss made, hardened steel cutting wheels. The main cutting wheel is (or what is called a conical, (cone shaped), burr grinding wheel. Conical burr grinders are ideal for coffee grinding because they are relatively quiet, powerful, tough, and virtually maintenance free when used in super automatic espresso machines. The grinder has 18 settings so you can fine tune the setting based on your coffee blend: Built in 2 Quart Water Tank . The Master 5000 has a large 2 quart water reservoir that can be removed for refilling. It sits on the top left of the machine and it can be removed easily, even under limited height overhead cabinets: For Great Flavor Extraction; A Powerful Pump .
