GRIND SIZE
The grind size will affect the rate of water flow
through the coffee in the filter basket and the
flavor of the espresso. When setting the
grind size, it should be fine but not too fine
and powdery.
There are 25 settings on the GRIND SIZE
dial. To adjust the grind, rotate the dial to the
back of the machine to go finer, or rotate the
dial towards the front of the machine to go
coarser. The smaller the number, the finer the
grind size. The larger the number, the coarser
the grind size. We recommend you start at the
No.16 setting and adjust as required.
NOTE
• When making changes to the grind size, the
new auto dosing time will be calculated after
your next tamp and updated for the dose
cycle following that.
• For most bean varieties, the grinder will
automatically switch off when the beans
get too low to complete a dose.
TIP
Changing the grind size affects the dose in the
portafilter. A finer grind size may cause an under
dose requiring ' A Bit More'. A coarser grind size
may cause an over dose. To avoid an over dose,
press and hold the 'Filter' button for 3 seconds,
reducing the grind time by 3 seconds.
