6 TIPS FOR CHOOSING COFFEE As a general rule any type of coffee available on the market can be used. However, coffee is a natural product and its flavor changes according to its origin and blend.

Therefore it is a good idea to try different types, in order to find the most suited to your personal taste. For best results, we recommend using blends which are made especially for espresso coffee machines. Coffee should always be dispensed by the Portafilter without a "dripping" effect.

The speed of coffee dispensing can be modified by slightly changing the amount of coffee in the filter and/or using a different coffee grind.
