4.MAKING ADJUSTMENTS
Testing the grind
texture
When the grinder is being used for
the first time, you’ll generally need
to adjust the grind texture and the
quantity (dose) of coffee grounds
dispensed into the coffee handle
when the dosing lever is operated.
4-5mm
After tamping, the coffee grounds should
be around 4-5mm from the top of the filter
basket.
Place handle in the espresso
coffee machine and observe
the coffee flow when the machine
is operating. The best coffee
extraction is achieved when 30ml
of coffee takes between 25–35
seconds to flow. Repeat this test
on at least two coffees to ensure
the flow is correct. Note that this
time is a guide only, as the pump
pressure is different between
espresso machines. The photos
below show the differences in the
coffee flow caused by different
grind textures.
Flow too fast
grounds too coarse
Flow correct grounds correct
Flow too slow grounds
too fine
Remove lid from hopper and
fill hopper with coffee beans.
Turn on the grinder at its on-off
switch and grind about 50
grams of coffee.
Switch machine off at its
on /off switch.

Test coffee for correct flow.
The texture of the coffee grind
is tested by making a short
black or espresso coffee
(30ml) using the single cup
basket in the coffee single cup
basket in the coffee handle.
Fill the basket with enough
grounds to suit (usually two
operations of the dosing
lever), and firmly tamp the
grounds. Fill the basket with
enough grounds to suit
(usually two operations of the
dosing lever), and firmly tamp
the grounds.

If the extraction time takes
less than 25 seconds, the grind
is too coarse and will need
to be made finer.
If the extraction time takes
more than 35 seconds,
the grind is too fine and will
need to be made coarser.
