Brewing Espresso Guide

Key Brewing Variables

Three main variables: quantity of ground coffee, tamping, and the grind.

Coffee Quantity

Loosely fill basket, level off excess with finger for even extraction.

Tamping Technique

Apply 30lbs pressure evenly, then lightly twist to polish. Consistent tamping is crucial.

Grind Adjustment

Adjust grind for tapered mouse tail flow (approx. 25s for 2oz shot). Grind size between powder and salt.

Consistency in Brewing

Maintain same coffee quantity and tamping pressure. Adjust only grind if shots are inconsistent.

Steaming Milk Basics

Milk Temperature Control

Use coldest milk possible. Stop process between 150-160°F to avoid burnt taste.

Milk Stretching Phase

Initial heating and air introduction. Continue until milk reaches ~100°F ('body temperature').

Milk Texturizing Phase

Submerge wand to roll milk, breaking large bubbles into small ones for creamy texture.

Steaming Milk Technique

Purge Steam Wand

Point steam arm over drip tray, open valve to purge water from condensation.

Hot Water Wand Operation

Water Removal Limit

Do not remove more than 6oz at a time until boiler refills. Failure may damage heating element.

Hot Water Warning

Water is ~250°F and dispensed under force. Use extreme caution to avoid injury.

Maintenance Procedures

Setting Pump Pressure

Adjust pump pressure using screw 'B' to set ~9 bar with backflush disc.

Setting Pump Pressure (Continued)

Pressure Adjustment

Raise brew lever, turn screw 'B' clockwise to increase, counter-clockwise to decrease pressure.

Pressure Verification

Raise lever, wait for pressure. Use flat blade screwdriver to adjust pump screw.

Grind vs. Pressure

If 9 bar with backflush disc but <8 bar during espresso, grind finer. Adjust for coffee freshness.

Verify power, boiler switches, reservoir level/float position. Check hi-limit switches on boilers.

Troubleshooting (Espresso Flow)

Espresso Too Slow/None

Check pump pressure (9.5-10 bar), adjust grind coarser, check reservoir line/screen, verify tamping (30lbs).

Espresso Too Fast

Check pump pressure (9.5-10 bar), adjust grind finer, ensure proper coffee amount and 30lbs tamping.
