To turn the machine o, press the POWER button. Alternatively, the machine has auto-o, if it is not used for 30 minutes. FILTER BASKETS This machine includes 4 lter baskets; 2 x Single Wall and 2 x Dual Wall. Single Wall lter baskets should be used when grinding fresh whole coee beans. They allow you to experiment with grind, dose and tamp to create a more balanced espresso. Dual Wall lter baskets should be used when using pre-ground coee. They regulate the pressure and help to optimise the extraction regardless of the grind, dose and tamp pressure or freshness. Regardless of whether you use Single Wall or Dual Wall lters baskets, use the 1 CUP basket when brewing a single cup and the 2 CUP basket when brewing two cups or a stronger single cup or mug. You will need to adjust the grind amount and size if switching from a single to a double basket, or vice versa. The provided lter baskets are designed for: 1 CUP basket = approx. 8 – 10g 2 CUP basket = approx. 19 – 22g NOTE You may need to experiment with how much coee is dosed into the lter basket or how long the grinder needs to run to achieve the correct dose. For example; when using a ner espresso grind with the Single Wall lter baskets, you may need to increase the grind amount to ensure the lter basket is correctly dosed.12 THE GRIND When grinding coee beans, the grind size should be ne, but not too ne. The grind size will aect the rate at which water ows through the ground coee in the lter basket and the taste of the espresso. If the grind is too ne (looks like powder and feels like our when rubbed between the ngers), the water will not ow through the coee, even when under pressure. The resulting espresso will be OVER EXTRACTED, dark in colour and bitter in avour. If the grind is too coarse, the water will ow through the ground coee in the lter basket too quickly. The resulting espresso will be UNDER EXTRACTED and lacking in colour and avour.

SETTING THE GRIND SIZE

This machine has 30 grind settings to select from, with the size selected displayed on the LCD screen. The default grind size is 15. When adjusting the grind size, a bar will display on the LCD indicating a faster or slower pour. PRE-INFUSE SHOT STEAM SEC AMOUNT MANUAL PAUSED HOT WATER FLUSH RESET DEFAULTS DESCALE

  • If you need to pause the grinding function, press and release the portalter. The LCD will show PAUSED, it will remain paused for 10 seconds before returning to READY mode.
  • Press and release the portalter to resume grinding. NOTE It is normal for the portalter to appear overlled with ground coee. MANUAL DOSING To manually dose the coee, press and hold the portalter in the grinding cradle until the desired amount of ground coee has been dosed. To stop grinding, release the portalter. The timer will count up, displaying the grind time.13
  • Remove the portalter from the grinding cradle.
  • Tap the portalter several timers to collapse and distribute the coee evenly in the lter basket.
  • Using the tamper, tamp down rmly (approx. 15–20kg of pressure). The amount of pressure is not as important as the consistent pressure every time.
  • As a guide, the top edge of the cap on the tamper should be level with the top of the lter basket AFTER the coee has been tamped. NOTE We recommend quality 100% Arabica beans with a ‘Roasted On’ date stamped on the bags, not a ‘Best Before’ or ‘Use By’ date. Coee beans are best consumed between 5 – 20 days after the ‘Roasted On’ date. Stale coee may pour too quickly from the portalter and taste bitter and watery.

precision dose trimming tool allows you to trim the puck to the right level for a consistent extraction.

PURGING THE GROUP HEAD

Before placing the portalter into the group head, run a short ow of water through the group head by pressing the 1 CUP button. This will stabilise the temperature prior to extraction and preheat the portalter for a consistent shot temperature.

INSERTING THE PORTAFILTER

  • Place the portalter underneath the group head so that the handle is aligned with the INSERT position. Insert the portalter into the group head and rotate the handle towards the centre until rm resistance is felt.14 EXTRACTING ESPRESSO
  • As a guide the espresso will start to ow after 8–10 seconds (infusion time) and should be the consistency of dripping honey.
  • If the espresso starts to ow after less than 6 seconds, you have either under dosed the lter basket and /or the grind is too coarse. This is an UNDER EXTRACTED shot.
  • If the espresso starts to drip but doesn’t ow after 15 seconds, the grind is too ne. This is an OVER EXTRACTED shot.
  • Press the 1 CUP button once, the button will ash, indicating that it has been selected. The LCD will display PRE-INFUSE and the shot clock will start counting up. Once pre-infusion is complete, the shot will start extracting. A pre-set single espresso volume of approx. 30ml will be extracted.
