TIPS FOR OPERATION

Getting a great tasting delicious coffee is a process that is influenced by several changeable components. For example: the sort of coffee that is used, the consistency and fineness of the coffee powder and the amount of coffee powder that is used. Using a manual espresso machine it also depends on the pressure (minimum 15 bar), amount and temperature of the water and the pressure with which the powder is pressed into the filter. In general you should pay attention to the following:

• For best flavour, store coffee beans in an airtight container.
• Grind coffee beans immediately before brewing.
• The strongness of the coffee depends on the grind fineness and the amount of coffee powder. The finer the coffee powder and the more coffee powder is used the stronger the taste and the more caffeine you will get.
• Coffee flavour and strength is a personal preference. Vary the type of coffee beans, amount of coffee and fineness of grind to find the flavour you prefer.

TIPS FOR THE GRIND

• The coffee must be finely ground, but not too fine (the correct grind should look gritty, like salt or sand).
• If the grind is too fine, the water, when brewing, will not flow through the coffee even under pressure (this grind looks like powder and feels like flour when rubbed between fingers).
• If the grind is too coarse, the water, when brewing, will flow too fast through the coffee, preventing a full flavoured extraction.

IMPORTANT: Do not overload the motor with food that is oversized or too hard. Turn the appliance OFF >O< as soon as the motor stalls or stucks to avoid overheating of the motor.

CARE AND CLEANING

⚠ WARNING: To avoid injury to persons and damage, always turn the appliance OFF >O<, wait for the motor to stop completely and unplug the appliance, immediately after operation and before assembling/disassembling or cleaning the appliance.
