5.2 - DRINK DELIVERY DESCRIPTION
USE RULES:
- Always heat the cup by rinsing it with hot water. If the cup is cold, the
sudden temperature change will modify the taste of your espresso.
- DO NOT fill the filtre-holder without delivering immediately after -
wards, since the gound coffee “burns” in the group and the resulting
espresso would be very bitter.
- The machine operating process forces the water onto the ground
coffee at high pressure.
If the contact between the water and the ground coffee lasts more
than 20/30 seconds, your coffee will have an unpleasant and bitter
taste.
This effect is known as over-extraction.
- Dose of ground coffee for ONE espresso coffee between 6 and 7 g.;
for 2 coffees 12-14 g.
- Check periodically the state of wear of the grinders of the grinder-
dispenser.
