Brewing in M (Manual) Mode:
Manual mode allows the user to cycle through each stage of pressure profiling, from the start of the shot to
the end, manually. To brew a shot in M mode, follow the instructions below:
1. With the portafilter prepared for brewing and engaged in the group head, first pre - infuse the coffee puck
by momentarily shifting the brew group to the left. This allows line pressure to saturate the puck.
2. When a drip shows at the spout (or on the basket if bottomless), momentarily shift the brew group left
again to advance the process. It may take several seconds before a drip is seen.
3. Shift the group left again to advance to the next stage of brewing. Repeat the process to cycle through
each stage. Typically, the ramp up and ramp down stages on MVP Hydras are kept short relative to the total
brew time. The full pressure stage is remained on the longest and to produce the bulk volume of the shot.
4. To end the shot, shift left again at the last pressure stage. Alternatively, the shot can be ended at any time
by momentarily shifting the group top handle to the right.
Brewing in MP (Manual Program) Mode:
Manual Program utilizes the program settings for preinfusion (and for ramp up on MVP Hydra models) to au-
tomatically cycle the stage(s) up to the full pressure stage, at which point the user controls both the ramp
down and stopping points of the shot. If
“0” is selected for the amount of time for either preinfusion or the
ramp up stage then that stage will be skipped. If “ Man ” is selected for either the preinfusion or the ramp up
stage then that stage will be manually controlled by the user as in M mode. To brew a shot in MP mode, fol-
low the instructions below:
1. Select the desired settings and program you wish to brew with. Shift the group top handle momentarily to
the right to cycle through the available programs. The programs will be indicated by numbers (1
- 6) in differ-
ent positions on the shot timer. See pages 40 and 41 for instructions on programming.
2. With the portafilter prepared for brewing and engaged in the group head, begin the shot by shifting the
group top handle to the left. The machine will run the preinfusion and ramp up stages according to the pro-
gram settings.
3. Once the full - pressure brew stage begins, it is at the user ’ s discretion when to cycle to the ramp down
stage and then to stop the shot. Shift the group top handle to the left to begin the ramp down stage. Shift to
the left once more to stop the shot.
Brewing in VP (Volumetric Program) Mode:
Volumetric Program mode automatically runs a brew cycle from start to finish based on the program select-
ed. Once the user activates the group, the shot will run to completion on its own. To brew a shot in VP mode,
follow the instructions below:
1. Select the desired settings and program you wish to brew with. Shift the group top handle momentarily to
the right to cycle through the available programs. The programs will be indicated by numbers (1
- 6) in differ-
ent positions on the shot timer. See pages 40 and 41 for instructions on programming.
2. With the portafilter prepared for brewing and engaged in the group head, begin the shot by shifting the
group top handle to the left. The machine will automatically run through the programmed settings for each
stage.
3. The shot will automatically end once the set total water count has been registered. The shot can be
stopped manually at any time by shifting the group top handle momentarily to the right.
