GRINDING FOR ESPRESSO COFFEE
NOTE
This machine is designed only for whole
roasted coffee beans. Avoid grinding unroasted
green and under-roasted coffee beans. These
are dense and not brittle enough to run
through a burr grinder. This will damage or
break burr grinders and even pose a safety risk.
Use single wall filter baskets when grinding
fresh coffee beans. Use the finer 1–25 settings
in the ESPRESSO range.

Step 2:
Selecting Grind Amount
Select the desired amount of ground coffee
required by turning the GRIND TIME dial.
Refer to the Coffee Chart on page 12 as a
starting point to adjust your grind time. This
will vary depending on the individual size of
your filter basket and coffee bean types. Rotate
the GRIND TIME dial to adjust the grind time
until the correct dose is achieved. Increasing
the time will increase the dose and decreasing
the time will decrease the dose.
Step 3:
Tamping the Ground Coffee
After dosing the portafilter with freshly
ground coffee, tamp down with between
15-20kg or 30-40lbs of pressure. The amount
of pressure is not as important as consistent
pressure every time.
