Information on recipes
Depending on the recipe selected, your Espresso Automatic EA88 will automatically
adjust the quantity of ground coffee needed.
Preparing the grinder
You can adjust the strength of your coffee by adjusting the size of the ground coffee beans.
In general, the ner the coffee grounds the stronger and creamier the coffee, however this
depends on the type of coffee used.
Adjust the size of the ground beans by turning the ‘Coffee grind setting’ knob (N) on the
bean tank. You are advised to do so during the grinding process and gradually. After three
preparations, you will notice a very distinctive difference in taste.
