Amount of coffee
The coffee machine can grind and brew
7.5–12.5g of coffee beans per cup. The
greater the quantity, the stronger the
coffee.
There are various ways to tell whether
the amount of coffee is set correctly:
The amount of coffee is too low if:
– espresso or coffee flows into the cup
too quickly,
– the crema is very pale and uneven,
– the espresso or coffee lacks body.
Increase the amount of coffee so that
more ground coffee is brewed.
The amount of coffee is too high if:
– espresso or coffee flows into the cup
very slowly,
– the crema is dark brown,
– the espresso or coffee tastes bitter.
Decrease the amount of coffee so that
less ground coffee is brewed.
Brewing temperature
The ideal brewing temperature will
depend on
– the type of coffee being used
– whether an espresso or a coffee is
being made, and
– the altitude of the region.
Useful tip: Not all types of coffee
tolerate high temperatures. Several
types are sensitive to high
temperatures, resulting in an impaired
crema and taste.
