Înființat

Curățare inițială

Before first use, remove all packaging materials. Hand wash the water reservoir, portafilter, portafilter baskets, tamper, drip tray, and milk pitcher with a mild detergent and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry well.

Umplerea rezervorului de apă

Fill the 3-liter removable water tank with cool, preferably filtered water. Place the tank securely on the back of the unit.

Setting the Grinder

The integrated conical burr grinder offers 30 grind settings. We recommend starting with a medium grind size (around 12) and adjusting as needed based on your results. Ensure the hopper is locked into place by twisting it clockwise until the notch on the top cover aligns with the tick marks on the hopper. Fill the hopper with fresh coffee beans (minimum 2 ounces for proper operation).

Priming and Flushing the Machine

Plug in the unit and press the ON/OFF button. Place a large heatproof cup on the drip tray below the brew head. Press the DOUBLE brew size button to brew a cup of plain water. This cleans any debris from the water lines and warms the brew head and internal parts. Discard the water and repeat if the machine has been unused for several hours.

Instrucțiuni de operare

Măcinarea cafelei

Place the portafilter with the desired basket (single or double shot) under the grinding chute. Press the corresponding filter size button (SINGLE or DOUBLE) to start grinding. The machine's default grind time produces 12g for a single shot and 20g for a double shot. You can adjust the grind time by pressing and holding the filter size button until the desired amount is dispensed, then release. The new time will be saved. Alternatively, you can use a scale to measure your preferred coffee weight by pressing and holding the filter size button until the desired weight is reached.

Prepararea espressoului

După măcinare, tamp the coffee grounds firmly and evenly into the portafilter basket. Insert the portafilter into the brew head and lock it into place. Place your cup(s) under the portafilter. Press the SINGLE or DOUBLE brew size button to start brewing. The pressure gauge should ideally be in the 'Espresso Range' for optimal extraction. The default shot volume is 30ml for a single shot and 60ml for a double shot, adjustable between 20ml and 400ml by pressing and holding the brew size button until the desired volume is reached. The default brewing temperature is 198°F, which can be adjusted by pressing and holding the PROGRAM button for 3 seconds, then selecting from four temperature settings (194°F, 198°F, 201°F, 205°F) and pressing PROGRAM again to save.

Steaming and Frothing Milk

For best results with steamed milk drinks, steam the milk first, then pull the espresso shot. Fill the milk pitcher no more than 2/3 full with cold milk. Swivel the steam wand over the drip tray, turn the STEAM/HOT WATER knob to STEAM. Once the ON/OFF light stops blinking, the unit is ready. Briefly turn the knob to OFF. Submerge the steam wand tip just below the surface of the milk in the pitcher. Quickly turn the knob back to STEAM. As the milk steams, keep the tip just below the surface to introduce air, slowly lowering the pitcher as the volume increases. Once the froth reaches the desired volume, submerge the wand deeper to continue heating. When the milk is heated and the pitcher is hot to the touch, return the knob to OFF and remove the wand from the milk. Immediately wipe down the steam wand with a soft, damp cloth. Position the tip over the drip tray and briefly turn the knob to HOT WATER to clean the inside of the wand. Tap the pitcher on the counter to pop any large bubbles, then swirl to even the milk texture. Add milk to freshly brewed espresso.

Întreţinere

Curatenie zilnica

After each use, rinse the portafilter and baskets in hot water. Use the cleaning pin to remove any stuck coffee grounds. Wipe the underside of the brew head with a damp cloth. Run a double shot cycle with water only to purge any grounds. If the steam wand was used, wipe it down immediately with a soft, damp cloth, then purge it by briefly turning the knob to HOT WATER. Wash the drip plate and storage tray in hot, soapy water and wipe clean.

Curățarea râșniței

With the power off, remove the hopper by turning it counterclockwise. Remove any remaining beans using a handheld vacuum or by grinding until empty. Remove the upper burr by turning its wire handle counterclockwise and lifting it straight up. Use the included brush to clean the upper burr, lower burr, and grounds dispensing chute. Place the upper burr back in position and lock by twisting clockwise. Reinstall the hopper.

Detartraj

The 'Clean | Descale' light will blink when descaling is required. Fill the water tank and add a commercial descaler according to package directions. Place two cups under the brew head and steam wand. Simultaneously press the SINGLE, DOUBLE, and PROGRAM buttons. Turn the STEAM/HOT WATER knob to STEAM. Water will dispense from both outlets. When both lights flash and the unit beeps, turn the knob to OFF. Empty the cups, refill the water tank with clean water, and replace the cups. Turn the knob to HOT WATER. Water will again dispense from both outlets. When both lights flash and the unit beeps, turn the knob to OFF and empty the cups. We recommend descaling every 4-6 months.

Depanare

If you encounter issues with your espresso machine, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Fără putere: Ensure the machine is properly plugged into a working outlet. Check if the ON/OFF button is pressed.
• Fără flux de apă: Check if the water tank is filled and correctly seated. Ensure the machine has been primed as per setup instructions. Descale the machine if the 'Clean | Descale' light is blinking.
• Espresso Not Brewing: Verify the portafilter is correctly inserted and locked. Ensure there are enough coffee beans in the hopper and that they are ground.
• Weak Espresso / Poor Crema: Adjust the grind size to a finer setting. Increase the tamping pressure. Ensure fresh coffee beans are used.
• Duză de abur blocată: Turn off the machine and let it cool. Use the cleaning pin to clear any blockages in the steam wand tip. If necessary, remove the tip and soak it in hot water.
• Râșnița nu funcționează: Check if the hopper is correctly locked into place. Ensure there are beans in the hopper.
