Setting the Grind Size
The grind size will affect the rate of water
flow through the coffee in the filter basket
and the flavor of the espresso. When setting
the grind size, it should be fine but not too
fine and powdery.
There are numbered settings on the GRIND
SIZE selector. The smaller the number, the
finer the grind size. The larger the number,
the coarser the grind size.
We recommend you start at setting 5 and
adjust as required.
Setting the Grind Amount
Set the GRIND AMOUNT dial to the
3 o’clock position as a starting point. Adjust
towards LESS or MORE as required to adjust
the dose amount so the metal cap on the
supplied tamper is level with the top edge of
the filter basket rim, AFTER tamping.
tIP
It is normal that the GRIND SIZE
selector and GRIND AMOUNT dial
will need to be adjusted a few times
to achieve the correct extraction rate.
Start with the suggested settings,
extract an espresso, then refer to
the Extraction Guide, page 25, to
determine what adjustments need to
be made.
Selecting the filter Size
Insert either the 1 CUP or 2 CUP filter
basket into the portafilter (see ‘Selecting a
Filter Basket’, page 22). Press the FILTER
SIZE button to select SINGLE if using the
1 CUP filter basket, or DOUBLE if using the
2 CUP filter basket.
