The factory setting for the grinding degree is designed for the properties of average coffee
beans. The effect of a change in the grinding degree can be evaluated only after dispensing
the second cup after the new setting has been made.
The following limits apply to the adjustment:

Correct setting:
Check your setting by making a double cup of espresso If the dispensing stream is
interrupted, and/or a fl ow fault is indicated on the display, then set the grinding degree at
least a quarter turn more coarse.
