Midnight every day. At 2018 electricity prices, it costs less than 20p to run for 16 hours. Because Minima uses a simple power switch rather than a soft switch.

Minima It’s important to have a routine, You might give Minima a 4 or 5 second stabilisation flush before pulling a shot after a long break between shots e.g. 10 minutes or more. I use this water to warm the cup. You can choose to do this or not. -
