and/or other objects inside the grinder. Before performing any kind of operation inside the coffee container, switch off the machine and unplug it. Do not introduce coffee beans while the grinder is operating.

The quality and flavor of your

coffee will depend not only on the blend you use but also on how finely you grind it. The machine has a knob (11) for adjusting the grind. To adjust the grind, turn the graduated knob while the grinder is operating; the numbers on the knob indicated the fineness of the grind. Every machine is factory-regulated to a medium-sized grind; turn the knob to lower numbers to obtain a coarser grind, turn the knob to higher numbers to obtain a finer grind. The variation in the fineness of the grind will be noted only after three or four coffees have been dispensed.

Use blends of coffee beans for

espresso machines. Avoid using extreme grinding settings (e.g. 1  16); in these cases use different blends of coffee. Store coffee in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.

You should adjust the fineness of the grind when the coffee is not dispensed properly: Coffee pours out too fast = excessively coarse grind > set knob on a finer grind; Coffee drips out slowly and/or not at all = excessively fine grind > set knob on coarser grind.

5.2 Dose adjustment

The machine allows you to adjust the amount of coffee (dose) to be ground according to your requirements. The manufacturer has set a standard dose that satisfies most needs: notch (A) corresponding to the point of reference (B).

9 DESCALING

Descaling is necessary to remove lime scale from all surfaces and holes, thus ensuring a perfect operation of valves, heating controls and other important parts.

Note: due to the complexity of the

coffee machine hydraulic circuit, the following descaling cycles (automatic and standard) do not allow the descaling of tubes. In fact, easily accessible components such as the central unit (14) and its

plastic connection are excluded.

The machine must be descaled every 3-4 months, according to the water hardness degree. A more frequent descaling is recommended wherever the water hardness degree is very high.

In case of hard water, a filter should be used both to improve the coffee quality and to protect the machine, thus reducing the descaling frequency.

Note: for this purpose, use a

descaling product suitable for coffee machines. Never use vinegar to clean the machine; it might damage it.

To facilitate the above operation, the machine displays a message whenever it needs descaling:

decalcify ready for use

The machine will continue to dispense coffee, but should be descaled as soon as possible.

Descaling may be performed either manually or automatically by the machine itself.

9.1 Conventional descaling

 With the machine off, mix the descaling

solution in the water container in a proportion of 1:1, following the directions on the package.

 Place a container under the steam/hot

water tube (5) and slowly turn the steam/ hot water knob (6) counterclockwise. Press the main power switch to turn on the machine and dispense approx. 3 dl of descaling solution through the nozzle.

 Set the knob (6) back in the initial

position. Again press the main switch to turn off the machine and allow the solution to act for approx. 5 minutes.

Descaling

 Repeat the above steps two or three times

until the descaling solution inside the water container has been completely emptied through the nozzle.

 After descaling, thoroughly rinse out the

water container (7) and fill it with fresh water. Turn the machine back on and rinse it thoroughly by discharging water (approx. 1.4 litres) through the steam/ hot water nozzle. In this manner you will eliminate any residues that might alter the taste of the coffee.
