Lets take it step by step: Fill tank if required, switch on (green light flashing, put cup under milk frothier, turn upper knob anti-clock wise until water comes out of tube (about a second or two!) turn knob back to mid position. open chrome cover, place pod inside, close cover, wait for green light to stop flashing (probably has by now), place cup under nozzle, rotate upper knob clockwise until the required quantity dispensed, or leave on until it switches off. Job done, easy.

To be fair the instructions are not as clear as they could but once you do it once, it is very simple. As for water in the used capsule bin, yes that happens, but remember the used pods have had water passed through them and they now have an entry hole through the top and an exit hole through the bottom! Water/coffee residue will come out". Just like many other coffee machines, this fantastic device can be bought online or on the high street.
