3. Ensure the ground coffee is
distributed evenly in the filter
basket, by tapping the portafilter
several times.
NOTE:
The grind size should be
fine but not too fine. The grind size
will affect the rate at which the
water flows through the ground
coffee in the filter basket and
the taste of the espresso. If the
grind is too fine (looks like powder
and feels like flour when rubbed
between fingers), the water
will not flow through the coffee
even when under pressure. The
resulting espresso will be OVER
EXTRACTED, dark in colour and
bitter in flavour. If the grind is
too coarse the water will flow
through the ground coffee in
the filter basket too quickly. The
resulting espresso will be UNDER
EXTRACTED, lacking in colour and
flavour.
Tamping the ground coffee
1. Once ground coffee is distributed
evenly in the filter basket, using
the coffee tamper provided,
holding the portafilter by the
handle in one hand, press down
firmly with the tamping end of
the measuring spoon and ensure
coffee is level . The filter basket
should be filled leaving 0.05mm
from the rim of the basket when
tamped (see Fig.5).

WARNING:
Do not overfill
the filter basket with coffee.
The filter basked should be
filled leaving 0.05mm from
rim of filter basket when
tamped.
NOTE:
When brewing for a mug of
coffee, always use the 2 cup filter.
If you require a larger coffee, add
the hot water first and then brew
the coffee.
2. Any excess ground coffee that
is on the rim of the filter basket
should be cleaned off to ensure
the portafilter sits flush under the
group head.
