the shoulders of the tool rest on the rim of the 

filter basket. The blade of the dosing tool should 

penetrate the surface of the tamped coffee.

MANUAL DOSE

AUTO

MANUAL

Press the manual dose button to switch to 

manual dose mode. The light around the Manual 

Dose Dial and the Manual light will illuminate 

when in manual mode.
Select the dose amount by turning the dial 

clockwise for more or counter clockwise for

Grinder Purge
It is recommended to purge the retained grinds 

left in the burrs or chute prior to making the first 

coffee of the day. Old grinds may affect the 

in-cup quality and coffee taste. Purging will 

ensure only fresh coffee makes it into your cup.
To purge, press and hold the 'Dose' button. The 

grind will start after 0.5 seconds, and it will stop 

once the ‘Dose’ button is released.
In auto mode, after doing a purge it is required 

to remove the portafilter, discard the grind from 

the basket and re-insert the portafilter into the 

grinding cradle to return the machine to its 

standby mode.
