Please ensure that you are operating the grinder with whole beans
only and that the hopper is in the OPEN position.
On the left side of the grinder collar, there is a spring-loaded,
push-lock pin. This locks the setting in place and prevents the
grinder from losing that setting. To adjust the grinder, depress the
push-lock pin with your finger. To obtain a finer grind, turn the collar
clockwise. To set the grinder for the first time, depress the lock-pin
and turn the collar clockwise until it stops. (Do NOT force the collar
to turn more.)
Once the collar is turned all the way down, note the number next to
the push-pin. Now depress the lock-pin and turn the collar back
(counter-clockwise) two turns, stopping when the same number is
next to the push-lock pin. This setting should be close to the
proper setting. You may adjust to finer or coarser grinds based on
the beans you are using.
3. Setting the Dosing (Automatic & Semi-Automati
c)
Remove the lid from the doser and look at the bottom. Notice it is
divided like a pie where each section is an individual dose of
espresso. Also note that part of the pie is covered. The cover can
be raised/lowered to increase/decrease the amount of the dose. In
the middle of the doser there is an elevated stem which will raise
the cover when turned counter-clockwise and lower the cover
when turned clockwise.
Before setting the dose, make sure the dispenser is filled
one-quarter to one-half full. Put the portafilter in the yoke under the
dispenser and pull the lever once or twice until the coffee is
dispensed.
Make sure each pull is a full dose and then adjust the amount for
each dose. For a single dose, pull once, and for a double dose, pull
twice. A double dose should fill the double portafilter to about
one-eighth inch from the top and cover the lip in the middle of the
portafilter basket.
