10.3.4 Pre-infusion

Pre-infusion ensures that the ground coffee in the portafilter is completely moistened once before extraction is carried out at high pressure.

How pre-infusion works

At the start of the espresso extraction process, the pump actively builds the pressure up for a predefined period of time. Before the pump pressure has reached 9 bar, the pump interrupts the activity for another predefined period of time. During this passive phase, the hot water completely soaks the ground coffee. After soaking is complete, the extraction is started at 9 bar.

Example

Active pre-infusion = 4 seconds, passive pre-infusion = 5 seconds:

Pump activity starts for 4 seconds after the start of espresso extraction. After these 4 seconds, the pump activity is interrupted for 5 seconds in order to moisten the ground coffee. After these 5 seconds have elapsed, the pump starts up again and the espresso extraction is started at 9 bar.

If the machine is not going to be used for a relatively long stretch of time, it should be emptied. Even with frequent use, the boiler water should be emptied every 1-2 weeks and replenished.

1. Allow the machine to start up until the set brew temperature and steam temperature are shown on the display.
2. Switch off the machine using the on/off button.

The LED ring goes out.
3. Place a large container underneath the hot water wand.
4. Open the hot water tilt valve (see Chapter 5.2.3, „Operating levers“),

The boiler water is emptied via the hot water wand.
5. Close the hot water tilt valve.
6. Rinse the boiler with fresh water (see Chapter 8.3, „Rinsing the machine”).

11.7 Cleaning the brew group

Not cleaning the brew group properly could cause premature wear. Clean the brew group as per the following instructions.

The machine has a reminder function "Cleaning Reminder" (see Chapter 10.3.6, "Cleaning Reminder"). If the function is activated, a reminder to clean the brew group will appear on the display after a preset number of extractions. Clean the brew group after having made approx. 90 to 140 cups of espresso. It is also recommended to clean the brew group once after the machine has not been used for a relatively long stretch of time.

The following are required for cleaning the brew group:

• The cleaning brush provided
• The blind filter provided, and
• A powder detergent available at a specialist retailer for cleaning and degreasing the brew group

Too frequent backwashing with a degreasing agent can lead to degreasing of the shaft and brew lever gasket.

This results in squeaking of the brew group as well as increased wear. The squeaking is reduced over time by the oils in the coffee. However, it is recommended to backwash from time to time using only the blind filter and without grease-dissolving cleaning powder. This dissolves coffee residues and prevents them from settling in the brew group.

11.7.1 Cleaning the brew group gasket and shower screen

1. Switch on the machine using the on/off button.

The LED ring lights up.
2. Wait until the set brew temperature is shown on the display.
3. Clean the brew group gasket and shower screen using the brush provided (see Chapter 11.7.1, „Cleaning the brew group gasket and shower screen”).

11.7.2 Cleaning the rest of the brew group

1. Remove the cup filter from one of the portafilters (see Chapter 11.1, "Cleaning the portafilter, silicone attachments, and filters").
2. Insert the blind filter in the portafilter (see Chapter 9.6, „Inserting the silicone attachments and filters in the portafilter").
3. Fill the blind filter with 3 - 5g of the cleaning powder.

Repeat the following procedure 5 times:

1. Insert the portafilter in the brew group (see Chapter 9.7, „Inserting the portafilter in the brew group”).
2. Move the brew lever into the drawing position (see Chapter 5.2.3, "Operating levers").

The blind filter fills with water. A pressure of 9 bar is displayed on the brew pressure gauge after a few seconds.
3. Move the brew lever into the half position and allow the cleaning agent to act for 10 seconds.
4. Move the brew lever slowly into the starting position.
The dissolved grease/oils are drained from the residual water outlet of the brew group.
5. Remove the portafilter from the brew group and rinse out with a short flush. Empty over the drip tray.
6. Insert the portafilter in the brew group.
7. Repeat steps 1 - 5 five times until the water runs out clear from the brew group.
8. Remove the portafilter from the brew group and take out the blind filter.
9. Perform a flush for 5 seconds to remove cleaning residues from the shower screen.

The brew group is now ready to use.
10. If the icon for the reminder function "Cleaning Reminder" appears on the display, reset it (see Chapter 10.3.7, "Reset Reminder").
✓ The icon will disappear from the display and the counter will start to count down to the next reminder.

17 Recommendations for preparing the perfect espresso

Preparing the perfect espresso is not only influenced by subjective factors, but also by factors such as the coffee variety, coarseness, amount of ground coffee, temperature, pre-infusion, flow, extraction duration, etc.

Until the right settings have been found, you may have to adjust and try out different parameters. The following overview outlines common problems, what causes them and how to solve them.

Problem Cause Solution

Espresso is not pouring out, just dripping out of the portafilter.	The coarseness of the coffee used is too fine.	Use more coarsely ground coffee.
	Brew pressure too low. Increase the brew pres-sure (see Chapter „Setting the brew pressure“).
	Ground coffee too densely compacted.	Do not press the ground coffee down as hard [see Chapter 9.5, „Pouring ground coffee into the portafilter and pressing [tamping]“].
	Too much ground coffee. Use less ground coffee. The marking in the filters serves as a guide.
Little to no crema on the espresso.	The ground coffee used is too coarse.	Use more finely ground coffee.
	Ground coffee not com-pacted sufficiently.	Press the ground coffee down more firmly [see Chapter 9.5, „Pouring ground coffee into the portafilter and pressing [tamping]“].
	Ground coffee too old. Use fresh ground coffee.
	Too little ground coffee. Use more ground coffee. The marking in the filters serves as a guide.
	Too much chlorine in the water.	Use a water filter.
	Shower screen is dirty. Clean the brew group (see Chapter 11.7, „Cleaning the brew group“).

Problem Cause Solution

Too little body. The ground	coffee used is too coarse.	Use more finely ground coffee.
	Ground coffee too old. Use fresh ground coffee.
	Too little ground coffee. Use more ground coffee. The marking in the filters serves as a guide.
	Shower screen is dirty. Clean the brew group (see Chapter 11.7, „Cleaning the brew group“).
