6.2 Manual adjustment of the brewing pressure

You can adjust the brewing pressure by turning the adjusting screw individually, between approx. 8.5 and 12 bar.

To adjust the brewing pressure, follow these steps:

1 Open the cup warmer tray.
2 Insert the portafilter with the blind filter into the brew group.
3 Operate the brew group lever and note the brewing pressure on the lower section of the gauge.
4 Use a flat screwdriver or similar tool to adjust the brewing pressure by turning the adjusting screw. Turn the screw anti-clockwise to reduce the brewing pressure and clockwise to increase it.
5 Check the pump pressure (on the lower part of the gauge) to see the adjusted brewing pressure.
6 Return the brew group lever to the lower position. Remove the portafilter from the brew group, then remove the blind filter and insert a coffee filter again.
7 The machine is ready for use again.

ENGLISH

6.3 Selecting the boiler temperature

You can set the boiler temperature of your Pro 400 / JUMP before starting or while using your machine.

The preset temperatures are selected via the 3-position switch (see below).

Profitec Pro 400 - Selecting the boiler temperature - 1

natural_image Technical line drawing of a mechanical assembly with an inset showing a component detail (no text or symbols)
120°C (248°F) (Pos. I)124°C (255.2°F) (Pos. II)128°C (262.4°F) (Pos. III)
Profitec Pro 400 - Selecting the boiler temperature - 2Profitec Pro 400 - Selecting the boiler temperature - 3Profitec Pro 400 - Selecting the boiler temperature - 4
Profitec Pro 400 - Selecting the boiler temperature - 5JUMPThe display showing "°C" or "°F" confirms the temperature values being displayed in either degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit (see chapter 6.7).

The preset values for the PRO 400 / JUMP are 120°C/248°F (switch position I), 124°C/255.2°F (switch position II), and 128°C/262.4°F (switch position III). For different coffee roasts or compositions, it is advisable to adjust the temperature of the boiler.

The PRO 400 / JUMP is a two-circuit or heat exchanger espresso machine. In a heat exchanger, the brewing water is heated indirectly by the boiler.

After heat-up phase and a short flush*, the specified boiler temperatures of the PRO 400/JUMP are approx. 90°C for switch position I, approx. 94°C for switch position II and approx. 98°C for switch position III. The measured temperatures may vary as they depend on the operating time, the ambient temperature and other factors.

* During a flush, the portafilter is removed from the brew group and a so-called "empty draw" is performed to clean the shower screen from any coffee residue and to remove excessively hot brewing water (this can occur in a heat exchanger machine due to its design) from the heat exchanger. In our measurements, the duration of the flush was two seconds in each case, to ensure comparability between the different brews. It is recommended to adjust the flush duration based on what is seen and heard such as bubbling or hissing. Changing the flush duration affects the brewing temperature.

For different coffee roasts or compositions, it is advisable to adjust the temperature of the boiler.

For optimal flavor balance, adjusting the brewing temperature according to the roast depth is advisable. The darker the roast, the cooler the extraction temperature should be selected for the most balanced flavor impression. This helps to reduce unwanted bitterness in the cup. If, on the other hand, the coffee tastes too acidic, a balance can be achieved by selecting a higher extraction temperature.

ENGLISH

For the following description, we used 16.5g of a dark espresso roast and obtained it in a ratio of 1:2.5 with a reference quantity of 45g. The water was blended with a filter to a total hardness of 4^ dH.

Profitec Pro 400 - ENGLISH - 2

We recommend switch positions I and II for espresso and position III for the focus on more steam output.

6.4 Preinfusion

Preinfusion is a process where the coffee grounds in the portafilter are moistened before the brewing begins. This allows the grounds to evenly expand and seal any channels, ensuring consistent resistance throughout the filter. This results in a more uniform extraction of flavors from the coffee. By default, preinfusion is deactivated.

6.9 Preparing coffee

Use the portafilter with 1 spout and the corresponding filter (1 cup) for the preparation of 1 cup. Use the portafilter with 2 spouts and the big filter (2 cups) for the preparation of 2 cups. Make sure that the filter is securely locked into the portafilter.

ENGLISH

Fill the filter with ground coffee. (The marking inside the filter basket can help you find the right amount of coffee.)

Compress the ground coffee with the tamper. A tamping pressure of approx. 20 kg is recommended for even compaction. Securely clamp the portafilter into the brew group.

Place the cup under the spout of the portafilter (for the preparation of 2 cups, put 1 cup under each spout).

Now move the brew group lever into the upper position to start the brewing process. The volume for a single espresso is approx. 20 to 30 ml. Place the brew group lever back into the original position once the desired volume is reached.

The remaining pressure/water will be discharged into the drip tray through the lower part of the infusion cylinder.

The pump pressure can be read in the lower section of the gauge. If the ground coffee is too coarse, a brewing pressure of over 9 bars is not possible.

Note: After the brewing process, the gauge still indicates a certain pressure. Only when preparing another cup of coffee will the build-up of pressure be visible again.

Profitec Pro 400 - ENGLISH - 1Caution!If the brew group lever is not moved into the lower position properly, hot water and grounds will squirt out of the brew group while taking out the portafilter. This may cause injuries.
Profitec Pro 400 - ENGLISH - 2Important!Only freshly ground coffee allows for an optimal coffee result. Therefore, use a professional coffee grinder. In our assortment you will find several professional and compact coffee grinders.
Profitec Pro 400 - ENGLISH - 3We recommend using the Profitec stainless steel tamper with a diameter of 58.4 mm for optimum tamping.

Profitec Pro 400 - Dispensing of hot water - 2Caution!To prevent injuries from hot water, always place the nozzle of the wand into the water container.

6.9.3 Dispensing of steam

The PRO 400 / JUMP is equipped to produce significant amounts of steam for heating or frothing beverages such as milk or punch. It is a professional and compact espresso coffee machine with a large steam volume, allowing you to prepare milk froth within a few seconds.

Do not bring the milk to a boil, otherwise it will not be possible to froth the milk.

1 Important: To get the best result when frothing milk, open the steam valve for approx. 5 seconds to release the condensation water in the pipe.
2 Immerse the steam nozzle (at the end of the steam dispenser) in the liquid.
3 Re-open the steam valve.
4 Heat and/or froth the liquid.

ENGLISH

5 After frothing or heating, release the steam into the drip tray to keep the holes of the steam nozzle clean.

Profitec Pro 400 - ENGLISH - 1Risk of injuryAlways keep the steam nozzle underneath the surface of the liquid while heating or frothing to avoid being sprayed by steam.
Profitec Pro 400 - ENGLISH - 2ImportantAfter every application, clean the steam nozzle and wand with a non-abrasive, damp cloth to remove possible liquid residue.

If the machine is not to be used for a long period of time, it is recommended to:

.. clean the brew group (see instructions in chapter 7.2). Afterwards, please do not clamp the portafilter back into the group.

.. empty the boiler. Switch the machine off (power switch in position "OFF") and open the hot water dispenser. Due to the boiler pressure, the boiler water is now discharged by the hot water dispenser. Close the hot water valve again after emptying the boiler. To restart the machine, see chapter "First use".

How to froth milk like a "barista"

  • If possible, use cold milk, so you have longer time to froth the milk. The fat content of the milk is not relevant, the protein content is important. Even homogenized milk is suitable - if you prefer.
  • Use a metal frothing container with a minimum volume of 350 ml. The container should not be too wide. A narrow, high container is recommended.
  • Open the steam valve for approx. 5 seconds to release the water condensation and to create dry steam.
  • Fill 1/3 of the frothing container with milk and place it under the steam nozzle. The nozzle should be immersed in the middle of the frothing container, just below the surface.
  • Slowly open the steam valve, steaming the milk.
  • Keep the frothing container still.
  • After a few seconds you will notice a light suction in the milk jug as frothing begins. Lower the milk jug as the milk level increases. The steam nozzle must be kept under the surface of the frothed milk.
  • Attention: When the desired amount of milk froth has been reached, immerse the entire steam nozzle in the frothing container for a short time and close the steam valve.

Profitec Pro 400 - How to froth milk like a "barista" - 1

Milk proteins "froth" at temperatures up to 77°C.

Once this temperature is exceeded, the milk will not froth any further.

  • Advice: When milk frothing is finished, just shake the frothing container a little bit to make the milk bubbles ascend to the surface and to get a more compact milk froth.
  • After frothing the milk, release the steam into the drip tray to remove milk residue and avoid any blockage of the steam nozzle.

For a perfect coffee result a professional grinder is as important as a good coffee bean.
