Place the cup under the spout of the portafilter (for the preparation of 2 cups, put 1 cup under each spout).
Now move the brew lever into the upper position to start the brewing process. The volume for a single
espresso is circa 20 to 30 ml. Place the brew lever back into the original position once the desired volume is
reached.
The remaining pressure/water will be discharged into the drip tray through the lower part of the infusion
cylinder.
The pump pressure can be read on the pump pressure gauge. If the coffee powder is too coarse, a brewing
pressure over 9 bars is not possible.
Advice:
After the brewing process, the gauge still indicates a certain pressure. Only when preparing another
cup of coffee will the build-up of pressure be visible again.
Caution!
If the group lever is not moved into the lower position properly, hot water and grounds will
squirt out of the brew group while taking out the portafilter.
This may cause injuries.
Only freshly ground coffee allows for an optimal coffee result.
Therefore, use a professional
coffee grinder. In our assortment you will find several professional and compact coffee
grinders.
We recommend using a stainless steel tamper with a diameter of 58 mm for optimum
tamping.
6.4 Dispensing of hot water
1
Place an adequate water container (with a heat-insulated handle) under the hot water dispenser. After
having moved the power switch into the lower position, you can dispense water (e. g. for tea) by opening
the hot water lever.
2
After dispensing water, switch the machine on again. The boiler will be filled with fresh water
automatically.
When the machine is switched off, more hot water can be dispensed.
However, one does not necessarily have to switch off the machine for dispensing hot water.
Caution!
Place the nozzle of the dispenser into the water container in order to avoid injuries due to hot
water spillings.
6.5 Dispensing of steam
The MECHANIKA V SLIM makes it possible to generate large amounts of steam in order to heat or froth
beverages, e. g. milk or punch. It is a professional and compact espresso coffee machine with an enormous
steam volume. Therfore, within a few seconds you can prepare milk froth.
Please pay attention to the instructions below. Do not bring the milk to a boil, otherwise frothing milk will not
be possible.
1
Important:
In order to get the best result when frothing milk, open the steam lever for approx. 5 seconds
to release the condensation water in the pipe.
2
Immerse the steam nozzle (at the end of the steam dispenser) in the liquid.
3
Re-open the steam handle / steam lever.
4
Heat and/or froth the liquid.
5
After frothing or heating, release the steam into the drip tray to keep the holes of the steam nozzle clean.
Risk of injury
Always keep the steam nozzle underneath the surface of the liquid while heating or frothing
in order to avoid sprayings.
