PROBLEM

POSSIBLE CAUSES

WHAT TO DO

Too much coffee extracted

• 

Coffee is ground too 

coarsely.

•  Shot duration /

volume needs to be 
reprogrammed.

•  Adjust the grind size  

to a lower number to make  

the grind size slightly finer.

•  Reprogram the shot  

duration / volume. Refer  
to 'Programming Shot  

Volume / Duration', page 11.

Not enough coffee 

extracted

• 

Coffee is ground too finely.

•  Shot duration / volume  

needs to be reprogrammed.

•  Adjust the grind size to a higher 

number to make the grind size 
slightly coarser.

•  Reprogram the shot 

duration / volume. Refer  
to 'Programming Shot  

Volume / Duration', page 11.

Amount of coffee extracted 

has changed, but all 
settings are the same.

• 

As coffee beans age, 

 

the extraction rate  

changes and can affect 

 

the shot volume.

•  Adjust the grind size  

to a lower number to make  

the grind size slightly finer.

•  Reprogram the shot  

duration / volume. Refer  
to 'Programming Shot  

Volume / Duration', page 11.

• 

Use freshly roasted coffee 

beans with a 'Roasted-On' date 

and consume between 5–20 

days after that date.
