6.2 Appliance cleaning
WARNING: Disconnect the coffee grinder from the mains before cleaning.
Do never immerse the coffee grinder in water and/or other liquids.
A constant and regular cleaning prevents the grease settlings contained in coffee to
go rancid, causing alterations in the smell and the taste of your espresso.
Cleaning instructions:
1
) Disconnect the coffee grinder from the mains.
2
) Clean the (empty) hopper internally and externally with a damp cloth.
3
) Wipe it with a soft and clean cloth.
4
) Clean the inner part of the dosing unit with a brush.
5
) Clean the body of the coffee grinder with a slightly damp and soft cloth
and wipe it with a clean and dry cloth.
6
) Connect the coffee grinder to the mains.
6.3 Scheduled inspections
An accurate and rational coffee grinding and a correct dose are the elements to
obtain the ingredients for a good espresso from your coffee grinder.
A coffee ground too fine is infused too slowly by the distributing units of the
appliance: its colour is dark and it tastes burnt; on the contrary, a coffee ground
too coarse is quickly infused: it is wan, with a poor aroma and a liquidish cream.
Do the following to have a correct infusion:
1
) Adjust the grinding continually by following the instructions indicated in point
D of paragraph 5.1.
2
) Have the Costumer Service Center of the

replace the blades after

to supply a dose of ground coffee that corresponds to about 6,7 grams.
