Introduction
Espresso Preparation System
Congratulations on choosing the Swift EPS
B from La
Marzocco. Your application of this new product in
your café or home will result in a number of
important benefits to you.
Quality, Consistency, Conservation, and Speed.
Your new Swift EPS
B 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 EPS
B enhances
coffee freshness by grinding coffee by dose, not by
bulk.
This manual includes information about how to
maintain and troubleshoot your Swift EPS
B for
optimal performance.
Please review it carefully.

Installation
The Swift EPSB
is easy to install. However, there are
several important considerations to keep in mind.
The Swift EPS
B
requires a grounded 110v, 15 amp (or
220v, 7.5 amp) power supply. It also requires a
minimum 16” x 16” (406 mm x 406 mm) space on
the counter. Since the unit is 26” (660 mm) in height,
allow at least 30” (762 mm) of vertical clearance so
there is sufficient space to allow the easy removal of
the bean hoppers and lids. The Swift EPS
B
weighs
about 75 lbs (34 kg), so make sure your counter will
support this.

Engage portafilter gently
Engaging the Portafilter
The portafilter engages directly to the Swift EPS
B.
Since the Swift EPS
B has no watertight seal, it is not
necessary to force the portafilter into place. Engage
the portafilter with only a light amount of force. If the
grinder shifts on the counter top, you are using too
much force.

Select the right or left
bean hopper
Remove prepared portafilter
Operating the Swift EPS
B
Once the portafilter is engaged, press one of the start
buttons located at the front of the Swift EPS
B. The
right and left buttons correspond to the right and left
bean hoppers. Coffee will be ground, dosed, and
tamped from one of these locations, depending on
which button you press.
The red indicator lights located above the start
buttons are illuminated when the Swift EPS
B is
grinding and tamping.
Once the red light corresponding to the button
selected is no longer illuminated, you may remove
the portafilter from the Swift EPS
B and engage it into
the espresso machine.
The Swift EPS
B
tamps 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.

Blinking indicator lights
relay information
Flashing indicator lights
The red indicator lights will flash for a number of
reasons. These are summarized below:
• You attempted to start the process with a full
portafilter.
• The safety timer has run out due to an empty bean
hopper, a closed bean gate, or a plugged bean
hopper chute.
• There is no portafilter engaged in the Swift EPS
B.

Adjusting Coffee Grind
To achieve your desired brew time and coffee
consistency, a manual adjustment can be made to
the grinder to modify the grind of the coffee. (The
tamping pressure is not adjustable and remains
constant). Rotate the adjustor knobs as described
below.
(1) Locate the grinder adjustor knob that
corresponds to the left or right side of the grinder.
(2) Grinding the coffee more finely will result in a
slower pour. To achieve a slower pour, adjust the
knobs as follows:
Left bean hopper:
Turn the knob counterclockwise.
Right bean hopper
: Turn the knob clockwise.
(3) Grinding the coffee more coarsely will result in a
faster pour. To achieve a faster pour, adjust the
knobs as follows:
Left bean hopper
: Turn the knob clockwise.
Right bean hopper
: Turn the knob counter-
clockwise.
When making this adjustment, remember to turn the
knob in a minimum of half-turn increments.
Brew one or two shots to test the adjustment.
Note: There are many variables that can affect
coffee, including temperature, humidity, and
freshness of the roast. All of these can cause slight
variations in shot times.
