GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR PROPER DELIVERY
Coffee and any other ingredients (milk, sugar etc.) are sensitive products and therefore:
you should manage supplies so that the materials whose use-by date is due to expire
soon are used fi rst. Always check the use-by dates. Products must not be stored in
the open air or exposed to direct sunlight.
- Check that the water supply tap located at the entrance to the machine is
turned on.
- Check that magneto-thermal differential switch at the entrance to the machine
is in the "ON" position.
- Always heat the cup by rinsing it with hot water; if the cup is cold the abrupt change in tem-
perature affects the taste of the espresso.
- NEVER load the fi lter holder with coffee without brewing it immediately; the coffee powder
would "burn" in the group and the espresso obtained would be very bitter.
- The machine forces water onto the coffee powder at high pressure. If the contact between
the water and the powder lasts more than 20/30 seconds (for a quantity of 35 cc in the cup),
the beverage tastes unpleasant and bitter. This effect is known as over-extraction.
- Ground coffee dose, for ONE espresso, between 6 and 7 g. inclusive.
- Checking the wear of the dosing grinder's grindstones.
