GENERAL OPERATION

Setting the Grind Size
The grind size will affect the rate of water flow
through the coffee in the filter basket and the
flavour of the espresso.
We recommend you start at setting 8 and adjust
as required.
Setting the Grind Amount
Set the GRIND AMOUNT dial to the 3 o'clock
position as a starting point. Adjust towards LESS
or MORE as required to adjust the dose amount.
Selecting a filter basket
Use Single Wall filter baskets if grinding fresh
whole coffee beans.
Use Dual Wall filter baskets if using
pre-ground coffee.
Selecting the Filter Size
Insert either the 1 CUP or 2 CUP filter basket into
the portafilter. Press the FILTER SIZE button to
select SINGLE if using the 1 CUP filter basket,
or DOUBLE if using the 2 CUP filter basket.
Automatic Dosing
•
Push and release the portafilter to engage
the grinding activation switch.
• Grinding will automatically stop, however
if you wish to stop grinding before the cycle
has finished, push and release the portafilter.
Manual Dosing
•
Push and hold the portafilter to engage the
grinding activation switch. Continue holding
until the desired amount of ground coffee
has been dosed.
•
To stop grinding, release the portafilter.
Tamping the Ground Coffee
•
Once grinding is complete, tamp down firmly.
•
As a guide to dose, the top edge of the metal cap
on the tamper should be level with the top of the
filter basket AFTER the coffee has been tamped.
Trimming the Dose
The Razor precision dose trimming tool allows
™
you to trim the puck to the right level for
a consistent extraction.
