Flush/relief unit
The function of the flush/relief handle depends on the position of the brew lever:
flush
If the brew lever is in resting position (up)
pressing the handle shortly will temporarily
activate 2 valves (and engage the optional
pump), resulting in a flush of adjustable amount
of seconds.
The LED is lit during the flush.
relief
If the handle is pressed during a brew, 2 valves
are dis-engaged (and the optional pump dis-
engaged when no other group is forcing the
pump to be active) such that remaining
pressurised water is led to the drain.
It effectively stops a brew-in-progress and the
brew-lever will return to resting position quickly.
This function can be used to pull a ristretto
without mess.
The LED is lit during a brew.
Figure 9. Flush/relief unit.
Flush-
duration can be adjusted in the “water timer” section of the Barista level under “FLUSH TIME”.
Notes!
Be careful when using the relief handle, the brew-lever will quickly return to resting position.
When you pull the lever out of resting position to make a new brew while a flush is in progress, the
flush is ended immediately.
