Frequently Asked Questions - Esperto Competente LPLESC01EU LA PAVONI

How to reset the safety thermostat?

Remove the plug from the sub-base and press the red button to reset the thermostat. Also check that the boiler contains water before restarting.

Why is coffee not flowing during dispensing?

Possible causes: no water in the boiler (fill), grind too fine (choose a coarser grind), excessive coffee amount (reduce dose) or coffee too tamped (tamp less).

What to do if coffee flows too quickly?

The grind is too coarse (adjust finer), insufficient coffee dose (increase amount), insufficient tamping (tamp more), or the coffee is old (replace coffee).

How to clean the Cappuccino Automatic?

After each use, immerse the suction hose in water and let dirty water flow. Occasionally, unscrew the threaded ring to disassemble the cover, plug, and hose, then wash everything with warm water.

How to obtain an optimal espresso with the lever?

Preheat the group by dispensing hot water beforehand. Use a fine grind, tamp evenly. During dispensing, raise and lower the lever gradually while monitoring the BPPC pressure gauge to adjust pressure.

Why is steam coming out of the safety valve?

This may indicate a blocked valve spring or a defective pressure switch. Contact authorized after-sales service for inspection and repair.

How to fill the boiler with water during use?

Turn off the machine, slowly open the steam wheel to release pressure, then remove the portafilter and lift the lever to vent steam. Unscrew the boiler cap, fill with cold water, then close.

How to prepare a cappuccino with the steam wand?

Pour cold milk into a tall, narrow container. Immerse the steam wand to the bottom, slowly open the steam wheel and move the container up and down to froth. Pour over the coffee.

What are the signs that descaling is necessary?

Coffee flow too slow, abnormal noise (vibrations), decrease in steam production, or overheating. In this case, perform descaling with a baking soda or white vinegar solution.

Why is coffee leaking between the group and the portafilter?

Possible causes: portafilter not inserted correctly (reinsert properly), excessive coffee amount (reduce), coffee residue on portafilter edge (clean), or worn group gasket (replace by authorized technician).

• Place the grid (8) on the base of the product, making sure that the notch faces towards the body of the machine.
• Screw the knob onto the lever by turning it clockwise.

4-3. STARTING THE MACHINE FOR FIRST TIME

• Unscrew the boiler cap (3) by turning it anticlockwise.
  •Prepare a solution of water and two teaspoons of bicarbonate of soda in a container. Wait for the bicarbonate of soda to dissolve completely; then pour the solution into the boiler (9). Alternatively, instead of using bicarbonate of soda, prepare a solution of water with one tablespoon of white vinegar in a container and pour it into the boiler.

- Make sure that the lever (1) is down; if necessary pull it down fully.

- Screw the boiler cap (3) onto the boiler by turning it clockwise and make sure that the cap and the steam knob (4) are properly closed.

- Place the filter holder (10) into the group head (11) and secure it by moving it from right to left.

- Insert the power plug into an electric socket having a suitable voltage.

- Place the switch (6) to ON and wait for the machine to reach the required pressure (approximately 5 minutes).

- Place a container under the group

head (11) and slowly lift the lever (1) until it is fully raised. Hold it in this position in order to discharge all the water contained in the boiler.

• Next, switch the machine off and remove the plug from the power outlet. Turn the steam knob (4) anticlockwise and wait until all the steam has been discharged from the steam pipe (12).
• Fill the boiler again with clean water and rinse the inside of the machine to eliminate any residues left by the solution.

4-4. STARTING THE MACHINE

- Fill the boiler (9) with a sufficient quantity of water for the amount of coffee you wish to make.

The water should not exceed the top of the level glass (5) and should not fall below the lower part of the level glass.

• Press the switch (6). It will light up to indicate that the machine is powered. At the same time, the indicator light (7) will also switch on to indicate that the heating element has been activated.
• When the pointer of the pressure gauge (13) reaches the green zone, slowly open the steam knob (4) by turning it anticlockwise to discharge the "false pressure caused by air left in the boiler. Then close it by turning it clockwise and wait for the pointer of the pressure gauge to move back into the green zone.
• The machine has now reached the correct pressure and is ready for use.

- It is normal for the light (7) to switch on and off. This is due to the pressure switch that is automatically regulating the pressure of the boiler.

- If the machine runs out of water while in operation, the safety thermostat will trigger and disconnect power to the machine. In this case, the thermostat has to be reset (see section 6 - Troubleshooting).

4-5. DISPENSING COFFEE

• Select the correct filter basket, small (19) for 1 cup and large (20) for 2 cups and place it into the filter holder (10). Only use the 20g filter (21) with the "Fascino" filter holder (22).
• Insert the filter holder and wait for the group head (11) to reach the correct temperature (90°C-95°C), indicated on the plate (15). In the meantime, get the cups, coffee, milk ready.
  •After it has reached the right temperature, remove the filter holder (10 or 22) and fill a filter basket (19-20-21) with ground coffee using the measuring scoop (18) provided. Consider one scoop for each cup of coffee.
• Press the coffee the coffee using the tamper (17) provided and clean any residue from the edge of the filter (Fig. A).

The 1-cup filter basket (19) is suitable for pods. When putting the pod into the filter basket, make sure that the filter paper does not extend beyond the edge of the filter holder.

• Hold the machine steady by holding the handgrip of the lever (1) and insert the filter holder (10-22) into the group head (11). Secure it by turning it slightly from right to left.
• Position the cup or cups under the spouts of the filter holder.
• Move the lever (1) upwards (while holding the handle of the filter holder

with your left hand to keep the machine steady). Hold it in this position for a few seconds (Fig. C).

- Then lower it as far as it will go in order to dispense coffee (Fig. D).

- The pressure gauge (14) allows the pressure exerted on the coffee to be controlled and modified while it is being dispensed in order to obtain the best possible result with every kind of coffee or blend.

- Repeat this procedure according to the amount of coffee required.

•After having dispensed a coffee, make sure that the temperature indicated on the plate (15) is between 90°C and 95°C. If it is higher, we recommended that you wait a few minutes to allow the group head to return to the right temperature in order not to dispense burnt coffee.

•After having prepared the coffee, leave the lever (1) in the down (rest) position so that any water remaining in the boiler does not leak out from the group head (11), and switch the machine off.

Before dispensing one or more cups of coffee, make sure that the level of the water in the boiler does not fall below the minimum.

•To obtain a good cup of coffee, it is important that you use a good quality, well roasted and correctly ground coffee.

•The espresso coffee machine requires finely ground coffee. If the coffee is too coarsely ground, the coffee will be light coloured and weak without froth and if the coffee is too finely ground the espresso will be dark and strong and have little froth.

•To obtain steady coffee delivery, the pressure exerted on the lever must be proportional to the resistance met by the lever when the coffee is dispensed.

- Before dispensing the first cup of coffee, we suggest that you lift the lever (1) completely and dispense a cup of hot water. This will heat the group head (11), the filter holder and the filter.

- It is normal for water to drip from the filter holder after the coffee has been dispensed.

- Do not remove the filter holder immediately after dispensing coffee. Wait a few seconds to allow any residual pressure between the filter and the shower screen to discharge.

•After a coffee has been dispensed, the filter holder (10-22) should be slowly removed from the group head (11), moving it from left to right and exerting a light downwards pressure, to help release any residual pressure and avoid possible burns.

4-6. TOPPING UP THE BOILER WITH WATER

Once the water in the boiler has run out, refill it as follows:

• Place the switch (6) in the off position before unscrewing the cap (3).
• Slowly turn the steam knob (4) anticlockwise and wait for all the steam in the boiler to be discharged from the specific pipe (12).
• Remove the filter holder (10-22) and slowly lift the lever (1). Keep the lever raised to allow the steam and water contained in the boiler to discharge through the group head.
  •We recommend that you use a container to collect the steam and

water and that you take great care since the steam and water that are discharged are very hot and may cause scalding.

• When the steam and water stop discharging, slowly unscrew the boiler (3). Then fill the boiler.
• Before screwing the boiler cap (3) back on, move the lever (1) to the rest position and close the steam knob (4) by turning it clockwise.

• Do not open the boiler cap (3) when the machine is in operation or still under pressure in order to avoid possible burns.
• Regularly check the amount of water in the boiler through the level glass (5). The lack of water when the machine is in operation may cause the heating element to burn out.

4-7. DISPENSING STEAM

•After having made sure that there is the correct amount of water in the boiler and having followed the procedure for bringing the machine to the correct pressure, make sure that the lever (1) is in the down (rest) position and leave it in this position.

Before heating any drinks:

• Place a container under the steam pipe (12).
• Turn the steam knob (4) anticlockwise to eliminate any condensation that has formed in the boiler.
• Then open the steam knob further to allow the required amount of steam to be dispensed (Fig. B).
• When finished, close the steam knob by turning it clockwise.

•To obtain a large amount of steam, the level of the water in the boiler should be about halfway up

the level glass (5).

•We recommend that you dispense steam for a maximum of 2 minutes to obtain maximum steam delivery performance.

• The user is not protected against direct jets of steam or hot water. Take great care when carrying out these operations.
• The temperature of the steam is approximately 100^ . Take great care when carrying out this procedure, to avoid possible scalding.
