ESUVIUS OWNERS MANUAL
Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of the worlds first
prosumer, computer controlled pressure profiling
Vesuvius using and E61 group. This advanced
espresso machine uses true pressure profiling via
the FG304 gear pump and speed controllable
brushless motor. Currently there is no other
prosumer machine available with these functions, so
some of the techniques for using the Vesuvius are
slightly different to other espresso machines
The pump and pressure settings can be set up in
many ways, so many, that the owners manual is just
a starting point for your journey.
