Congratulations

Saeco M50 guarantees superior quality, style and performance, and embodies the essence of the commercial cuisine.
Saeco M50 is inspired by the robust tools of restaurants, cafés and bars, and is designed to last in time.
It combines a range of equipment specifically designed by experts to recreate a professional environment at home.

The appliance features a perfect mix of stainless steel and metals.
This - together with advanced technology and functional design - ensures that every product exceeds expectations.

It does not matter which method you use to brew coffee: the taste of the product brewed depends mainly on the quality,
freshness and roasting of coffee beans.
Other factors that may affect the taste of the final product may also be the purity of the water, the state of the coffee
grinder and the conformation of the grinding mechanism of the coffee grinder.

Saeco M50 features steel long-lasting conical grinders.
The design of the conical grinders ensures that the parts of ground coffee are uniform.
This is particularly important for espresso coffee: if the coffee is evenly ground, the flavor will be extracted in equal
measure.
If the coffee is not evenly ground, some parts will be over-extracted, while others will be under-extracted, thus resulting
in a coffee with a poor taste.

Another advantage of the conical steel grinders design is their slow and rotational movement.
This - together with a belt motor - minimizes heat transfer to the grinders, preserving the aromatic qualities of coffee and
enhancing the quality of the final product.

The Saeco M50 precision coffee grinder is built using die-cast metal components and is provided with several features that
make it very easy to grind coffee at home. And you can enjoy a delicious cup of coffee every time you want.

8 OPERATION AND USE

The use by children older
than 8 years or by persons
with reduced physical,
mental or sensory abilities
or with lack of experience
and skills is allowed,
provided that they are
supervised or instructed on
how to use the appliance
correctly and that they

8.2 Coffee Grind Adjustment

Select the grinding setting by turning the adjusting collar to
the desired level.

Refer to the summery table for the grinding settings
below. This will help you selecting the desired grinding
level.

Grinding adjustment table

ADJUSTMENT

BREWING TYPE

0-7 Turkish
7-15 Espresso
7-15 Moka
10-20 Brewing with siphon
15-30 Aero Press, Drip Filter, V-60 Dripper

25-30 Plunger, Clever Coffee Dripper

The 30 grinding settings range allows for precise
adjustment. The coffee grinder allows to monitor the
coarseness in order to differentiate the quality of the final
product.

When using the coffee grinder remember the following:

• The tighter the coarseness, the longer the grinding
process.

• After using a fine setting for a long period, it is
recommended to remove the grinding adjusting collar to
remove any coffee residues in order to avoid clogging. For
further information, please refer to the "Cleaning and
Maintenance" chapter.

Tips:

1. Select the grinding suitable for the dispensing method
you have chosen. 30 settings are available to ensure
precise adjustment. Lower settings provide finer grinding,
while higher settings provide larger grinding. It is
important to test the different settings to reach the ideal
brewing mode that best suits you.

2. If coffee is ground too fine for a specific brewing
process it will be over-extracted and the coffee will have a
bitter taste. On the other hand, coffee that is ground too
coarse will be under-extracted and coffee will have a weak
and poor taste.

3. Coffee quickly loses its fragrance and aroma right after
it is ground. In order to get the best result, it is
recommended to grind the beans just before brewing.

4 Buy fresh coffee beans every week.

5. In order to keep their freshness, store coffee beans
inside a hermetically sealed container in a cool, dry place
and away from light. It is not recommended to store the
beans inside the coffee grinder container for too long.

6. To ensure the best result from the coffee grinder,
regularly clean the bean hopper and the grinders.

and soap. Then rinse and dry.

9.2.3 Motor Base and Outside Part
of the Appliance

Clean the outside part of the motor base and the outside
part of the appliance with a damp cloth and dry.

Do not use metal or
abrasive sponges to avoid
scratching the outer
surface.

9.2.4 Cleaning the Grinders

In case of frequent use of the coffee grinder (every day),
grinders should be cleaned every month to ensure best
coffee grinder performance. Regular cleaning contributes
to reach a constant grinding of the grinders, which is
particularly important for espresso coffee brewing.

Close the arm for coffee bean hopper closure.

Grind the coffee left in the grinders by turning the control
knob to “On” until there is no more ground coffee coming
out from the coffee grinder. Then turn the control knob
to “Off”. Unplug the coffee grinder.

collar flap and rotate counter-clockwise.

Using the adjusting collar
flap it is possible to remove
the collar without changing
grinding adjustments.

Lift the adjusting collar from the coffee grinder base.

Clean the top grinder inside the adjusting collar and the
bottom grinder placed in the coffee grinder base by using
the supplied brush (placed inside the ground coffee drawer
of the coffee grinder).

When both grinders are clean, reposition the adjusting
collar on the coffee grinder base and make sure that the
arrow on the side of the collar is aligned with the arrow of
the “ALIGN” wording of the coffee grinder base. Rotate
clockwise until the arrow on the adjusting collar is aligned
with the arrow of the “LOCK” wording. Then the
“RELEASE” button is lifted.

9.2.5 Grinding recalibration

Recalibration changes all
previous settings.

Close the arm for coffee bean hopper closure.

Grind the coffee left in the grinders by turning the control
knob to “On” until there is no more ground coffee coming
out from the coffee grinder. Then turn the control knob
to “Off”. Unplug the coffee grinder.
Remove the coffee bean hopper from the base by rotating
it counter-clockwise.

At this point you can proceed with the steps for grinding
recalibration. Coffee grinder recalibration may be carried
out to get a coarser or finer grinding. The two procedures
are shown below.

9.2.5.1 Recalibration for Coarse
Grind

Take note of the position of the current adjustment. Turn
the grinding adjusting collar to position 15.

Raise the recalibration release lever and remove the
adjusting collar.

To get a coarse grind, reposition the collar on position 10.
Reinsert the adjusting collar by pressing downwards the
front part first and the back part after. Make sure you hear
2 clicks.

Reposition the grinding adjustment in the initial position.
Now grinding will be coarser.

Reassemble the coffee bean hopper on the base of the
coffee grinder. Open the closure arm.

9.2.5.2 Recalibration for Fine Grind

The coffee grinder factory
settings are set in order to
get a fine grind. If grinding
at position 0 does not
match the desired result,
recalibrate the grinding to
make it finer.

Turn the grinding adjusting collar to position 15.

Raise the recalibration release lever and remove the
adjusting collar.

To get a fine grind, reposition the collar on position 17.
Reinsert the adjusting collar by pressing downwards the
front part first and the back part after. Make sure you hear
2 clicks.

Place the grinding adjustment to get the desired grinding
value.

Reassemble the coffee bean hopper on the base of the
coffee grinder. Open the closure arm.

A too fine recalibration can
lead to rubbing of the two
grinders, thus causing noise.

If this happens, turn off the
coffee grinder and select a
coarser grind (setting close
to 30) or recalibrate for a
coarser grind.
