The Gaggia coffee machine allows using all types of coffee beans available on the market (except
caramelized ones).
However, coffee is a natural product and its features may change according to its origin and blend.
With some coffee blends it could happen that, after choosing the coffee, it is not brewed and the machine
returns to the initial status.
In such cases, reduce the quantity of coffee to be ground (e.g.: from “strong” to “medium”), using this
function.
