5 THE COFFEE BURR GRINDER
(FIG.09)
Caution! Only turn the grind control
knob, found inside the coffee bean
container (Fig.09), when the coffee grinder
is working. Do not insert ground and/or
instant coffee in the coffee bean container.
Do not insert anything other than whole
bean coffee in the container. The coffee burr
grinder contains dangerous moving parts;
keep fingers and/or other objects away.
Before carrying out any operations in the
coffee bean container, switch OFF the ON/
OFF switch (8) and remove the plug from
the wall outlet. Do not insert coffee beans
when the coffee burr grinder is working.
The quality and the taste of the drinks you can
make on the Saeco Italia depend on 3 things;
the quality of the coffee you use, the quality of
the water you use and on the size grind you use.
The Saeco Italia was designed using Starbucks
Coffee. We recommend using Starbucks Coffee
to achieve a superior drink when using the Saeco
Italia.
The Saeco Italia comes with a grind adjusting
knob (Fig.09). To use this feature, turn the
adjustable knob when the coffee burr grinder is
working; the numbers displayed on the knob
indicate the grind coarseness.
The manufacturer has sets the knob to achieve
a single shot based on the standards Starbucks
uses in there stores; if the ground coffee is too
fine, turn the knob toward the higher values; if
the ground coffee is too coarse, turn the knob
toward the lower values.
You will note the change only after pulling three
to four shots.
You should change the grind position if the
espresso does not outflow optimally, specifically:
If your shot pours too fast; then the grind is too
coarse and you should adjust the grind to make
it finer.
If your shot pours to slow' then the grind is too
fine and you should adjust the grind to make it
courser.

6 ADJUSTING THE COFFEE
DOSE (FIG.10)
You may select the quantity of coffee (dose)
that you wish to grind. The manufacturer has
set the dose system to achieve a single shot of
espresso based on the standards Starbucks
uses in their stores.
To change the dose, simply turn the knob
(Fig.10) found inside the coffee container. Turn
it counter clockwise to increase the dose and
clockwise to decrease the dose.
You must adjust the dose before pressing the
coffee dispenser button.
This system allows you to obtain a shot of espres-
so to your personal liking.
7 THE COFFEE DISPENSER
Note: If the appliance does not di-
spense coffee, check the water level
in the tank.
• Before making coffee, make sure that the
espresso shot & long shot bottoms are lit
and emit a fixed light and that the water
tank and the coffee container are full.
• Place the empty coffee cups on the cup-
warmer plate for pre-heating.
Note: the cups to be pre-heated must
be empty; pre-heating the coffee
cups will allow you to keep your coffee
warmer.
• Place 1 or 2 coffee cups under the coffee
dispenser spouts; you can adjust the
height of the dispenser by moving it up
or down manually (Fig.11) until it suits
your cups.
• It is possible to use big cups by lowering the
dispensing unit nozzles and by moving the
dispensing unit body towards the machine
(Fig.12 & 13).
It can also be removed completely.
