This procedure is also intended as an anti-freeze measure in the event the machine is exposed to extreme cold
temperatures.
ADJUSTING CONICAL BURRS
Some types of coffee may require a wider grind range to achieve an ideal extraction or brew. A feature of the built-in
grinder is the ability to extend this range with an adjustable upper burr. We recommend making only one adjustment
at a time.
Tips
PRE-HEATING
Heating your cup or glass
A warm cup will help maintain the coffee’s optimal temperature. Pre-heat your cup by rinsing with hot water from the
hot water outlet and place on the cup warming tray.
Heating the portafilter and filter basket
A cold portafilter and filter basket can reduce the extraction temperature enough to significantly affect the quality of
your espresso. Always ensure the portafilter and filter basket are pre-heated with hot water from the hot water outlet
before initial use.
Note: Always wipe the filter basket and portafilter dry before dosing with ground coffee as moisture can encourage
‘channeling’ where water by-passes the ground coffee during extraction.
