The Swift was born of a desire
to offer consistent shot quality
while reducing coffee waste
and barista fatigue.
The Swift grinds, doses, and tamps coffee directly
into the portafilter, eliminating the need to do this
manually. It measures and doses by volume, not time,
so waste and product inconsistency are reduced. At
the same time, the Swift enhances coffee freshness
by grinding coffee by dose, not by bulk. The Swift
accomplishes this by tamping the coffee as it is
ground. When the volume of ground coffee in the
portafilter reaches the set level, the grinding motor
turns off. The tamping motor continues to run for 1-3
seconds, “polishing” the tamped coffee.
adjusting the grind
To achieve the desired brew time and shot consistency,
a manual adjustment will need to be made to modify
the coarseness or fineness of the coffee grounds.
The tamping pressure is not adjustable and remains
constant. Please note that temperature, humidity, and
how fresh the coffee is will cause slight variations in
shot times. This is normal.
1. Locate the grinder adjustor knob that corresponds
to the left or right side of the grinder.
2. Turn the knob in the appropriate direction for
the adjustment needed while the grinder is
on. Making adjustments when the grinder is
not grinding coffee will cause damage to the
machine over time. Grinding finer coffee will
result in a slower pour. Grinding coarser coffee
will result in a faster pour.
3. Once the adjustment has been made, pull several
shots to confirm the desired result. Make further
adjustments if necessary.
