Russell Hobbs Coffee Machine with Ground Coffee and Nespresso® Pod Compatibility
Two brewing methods, one compact machine:
The Russell Hobbs 28700 Everyday Espresso machine accepts both traditional ground coffee via a portafilter and Nespresso® Original compatible capsules - so you can brew the way that suits you on any given morning. Switching between the two is straightforward: fit the ground coffee portafilter for a classic 15 bar espresso, or swap in the capsule basket and the machine automatically adjusts to 20 bar for pod brewing.
Single and double shots to order:
Two pressure-fitted filter baskets are included - one for a single shot and one for a double - giving you control over strength without any complicated settings. The pressurised baskets are also forgiving of varying grind textures, which makes them practical for everyday home use.
Steam wand for milk-based drinks:
The Panarello manual steam wand swivels and produces textured milk for lattes and cappuccinos. The removable nozzle makes cleaning straightforward after use. A heated top plate keeps cups warm while the machine heats up.
Practical day-to-day details:
The 1.5-litre transparent water tank is removable for easy refilling and gives a clear view of the water level. A removable drip tray sits beneath the cup stand, which accommodates cups up to 7 cm tall. The machine shuts off automatically after 25 minutes, and a Clean Warning light activates after 500 combined uses as a prompt to descale or clean the internal components. White illuminated buttons control power, steam, and brew functions.

Setup and Care
Getting started:
Fill the 1.5-litre water tank and reattach it to the machine before first use. Run a rinse cycle without coffee by pressing the brew button with no portafilter or capsule fitted - this flushes the internal system before your first brew.
Choosing your brewing method:
For ground coffee, fill the portafilter basket, tamp lightly with the included tamper, and lock it into the group head. For capsule brewing, place a Nespresso® Original compatible capsule into the capsule basket and fit it in place of the portafilter - the machine adjusts pressure automatically.
Using the steam wand:
Allow the machine to reach steam temperature after brewing, then position your milk jug beneath the Panarello nozzle before activating the steam function. The steam stops automatically after 180 seconds. Wipe the nozzle with a damp cloth immediately after use, and remove the nozzle periodically for a more thorough clean with the supplied cleaning tool.
Descaling and maintenance:
When the Clean Warning indicator lights up - after approximately 500 combined uses - it is time to descale the machine using a proprietary espresso machine descaler mixed with water in the tank. Empty and rinse the drip tray regularly, and rinse the water tank with fresh water before refilling to keep the brewing system in good order.
