I have not used my espresso/coffee maker for almost a year. When I opend up the espresso side to put water in it smelled bad and looked brown. I tried to run a batch of water threw it but it was not brewing all the water. What was left inside was nasty brown water that smelled like poop. It is a westbend espresso/coffee maker from wall-mart and I don't have the book. Also the carfe broke how much water do you put in it to make two shots of espresso.
