UNdER ExtRACtEd ZoNE
During extraction, the gauge needle when
positioned in the lower zone, indicates
the espresso has been extracted with
insufficient pressure.
This occurs when the water flow through
the ground coffee is too fast and results in
an under extracted espresso that is watery
and lacks crema and flavour.
Causes for under extraction include the grind
being too coarse and/or insufficient coffee in
filter and/or under tamping.

espresso has been extracted with too much
pressure.
This occurs when the water flow through the
ground coffee is too slow and results in an
over extracted espresso that is very dark and
bitter with a mottled and uneven crema.
Causes for over extraction include the grind
being too fine and/or too much ground
coffee in filter and/or over tamping.

AUto PURGE
For extracting espresso immediately after
using the steam function, this machine
features an auto-purge function.
The auto purge function ensures the
ground coffee will not be burnt by the
initial water flow from the thermocoil being
too hot. The water is automatically released
internally into the drip tray ensuring that
the thermocoil is at optimal temperature
for extracting espresso
your espresso will always be extracted at
the optimal temperature ensuring only the
best flavours are extracted.
