Introduction; Instructions For Use - Rocket Espresso Conti Valerio Fausto User Manual

INTRODUCTION

It is necessary to set up the appliance before operating by
determining the correct grind required to create a perfect extraction.
1. An espresso grind is a very fine grind yet still granular.
2. Coffee loses its flavour rapidly once ground and therefore only
grind as much as is needed for the espresso you are about to
prepare.
3. Temperature, humidity and waring of the grinder burrs all affect
the accuracy of the grind setting, therefore each morning you
may find you need to "dial in " your grinder ( make the grind
setting coarser or finer). This will be the difference between good
coffee and great coffee.
4. Ensure that your dosing and tamping is consistent.
5. Good extraction is characterised by a 5 - 10 second delay, before
any coffee will pour. Heavy droplets will appear and develop into
a thick, straight and even pour. The colour will be dark brown or
hazelnut, preferably with a reddish reflection.
6. The pour should be stopped before colour lightens and the pour
begins to curl in.
7. If the flow is too fast ( another sign will be a pale crema and white
streaks) Then adjust your grind and make it finer - rotate the
adjusting knob clockwise.
8. If the flow is too slow the grind is too fine. Adjust the grind and
make is coarser. - rotate the adjusting knob anticlockwise.
9. Correct grind equals correct extractions equals correct flavour.
