Blinking indicator lights
The indicator lights will flash for a number of reasons. These are summarized below:
•
You attempted to start the process with a full portafilter.
• The safety timer has run out due to: Empty hopper; Closed bean gate; or Plugged hopper
chute.
• There is no portafilter engaged in the Swift EPS.
Adjusting coffee grind
To achieve your desired brew time and coffee consistency, a manual adjustment can be
made to the grinder to modify the coarseness or fineness of the coffee. (The tamping pressure is
not adjustable and remains constant). Rotate the adjustor knobs as described below.
(1) Locate the grinder adjustor knob that corresponds to the left or right side of the grinder.
(2) Grinding finer coffee will result in a slower pour. To achieve a slower pour, adjust the knobs as
follows:
•
Left hopper: Turn the knob counterclockwise.
•
Right hopper: Turn the knob clockwise.
(3) Grinding coarser coffee will result in a faster pour. To achieve a faster pour, adjust the knobs as
follows:
•
Left hopper: Turn the knob clockwise.
•
Right hopper: Turn the knob anticlockwise.
When making this adjustment, remember to turn the knob at a minimum of half-turn increments.
Brew one or two shots to test the adjustment.
Note: Several variables can affect coffee quality: temperature, humidity,
freshness of roast. All of these can cause slight variations in shot times.
