To stop the auto grinding midway through a grinding cycle, push the portafilter in
once, or press the FILTER SIZE button.
• For manual grinding - push and hold the portafilter in until the desired amount of
ground espresso has been delivered.
STEP 7 - TAMPING THE GROUND ESPRESSO
For ease of use, the appliance provides two handy ways to tamp
your espresso:
1. Tamper on Board: The tamper device is held in place, on the
machine, allowing for convenient tamping.
a. Once the grind function has been completed, remove the porta-
filter from the grinding cradle. Gently level the grinds in the por-
tafilter with your finger.
b. With the tamper fitted into place, lift the por-
tafilter towards the tamper base.
c. Push the portafilter upward firmly, applying
even pressure to tamp the espresso.
d. Release the portafilter from the tamper, and
clean any excess ground espresso from the
rim of the portafilter to ensure a correct fit
into the group head.
Note:
Tamping between measures will create a layer in the ground espresso that can impe-
de full extraction.
2. Tamping Control: The tamper device is removable for hand tam-
ping. Remove the tamper from the machine.
a. Once the grind function has been completed, remove the porta-
filter from the grinding cradle. Gently level the grinds in the por-
tafilter with your finger.
b. Use one hand to grip the tamper and the other hand to hold the
portafilter handle.
c. Apply even pressure down on the tamper and press firmly in order to level and pack
the espresso grounds.
d. Lift the tamper from the portafilter, and clean any excess grinds from the rim of the
portafilter to ensure a correct fit into the group head.
