To make coffee, move the handle up to the horizontal position, the microswitch behind the handle is pressed (see picture below), and the pump starts. At this point, both the prepreg valve and the pressure relief valve are closed, while the intake valve is open (cam against the intake valve ejector, see section of E61 cooking head). When hot water is injected into the open pipes and cavities of the cooking head, the pressure rises. When the pressure exceeds 1.5 atmosphere, the prepreg valve (expansion valve) opens and hot water enters cavity 4. As a result, before the hot water is filled with 4, the coffee cake is pre-soaked at 1.5 atmospheric pressure. Once cavity 4 is filled, the hot water pressure begins to rise again until the required 8: 10 atmospheric pressure is completed, the small hand is moved to the vertical position, the microswitch is closed, the pump stops, and the cam releases the intake valve ejector rod, the intake valve closes, at the same time the cam presses the prepreg valve ejector rod and the relief valve ejector rod, and the relief valve opens. The pressurized hot water in the cavity between the boiling filter bowl and the water distribution network, cavity 3 and cavity 4, that is, discharged from the pressure relief outlet to the coffee machine drain tank. E61 another function praised by the world is the automatic prepreg function. The hot water pressure of making espresso is equivalent to 8: 10 atmospheric pressure, and if the water under such high pressure is applied to the surface of the coffee cake at once, it is not very beneficial for coffee extraction, so engineers who design and make coffee machines should try to avoid it. On E61, an expansion cavity (cavity 4) is designed to slow down the pressure establishment process. In addition, hot water from the boiler through the inlet to cavity 1, cavity 2, cavity 3 and then to the water distribution network, it has to go through tortuous and narrow pipes, which play a good role in limiting current. Therefore, for the E61 head, the hot water pressure is slowly established, and this pressure establishment process is called preleaching.

Unlike the ordinary cooking head, the E61 is connected to the boiler (or heat exchanger) with two water pipes, the upper one is called the inlet and the lower one is called the backwater outlet. The hot water in the boiler enters cavity 1 from the inlet and heats the boiling head. after exchanging heat, the temperature of the hot water decreases, and the density of the cooled hot water increases and has a larger gravity, so it flows downward and flows back to the boiler from the backwater outlet. Hot water circulates naturally in the pipeline system composed of boiler and cooking head, which is called thermosyphon effect. Using the heat of the boiler to hedge the cooking head for heating and heat preservation, which is one of the major functions of E61
