  • Dynamic Pre-Infusion: Gently soaks ground coffee to ensure even extraction.
  • Constant Temperature Technology: Utilizes PID temperature control and NTC temperature sensing for stable brewing temperature.

Impostare

1. Disimballaggio

Carefully remove all packaging materials from the machine. Ensure all components are present: main unit, portafilter, filter baskets (single, double, ESE pod), measuring scoop/tamper, and water tank. Inspect the machine for any damage.

  1. Preparare il latte: Fill a stainless steel frothing pitcher with cold milk (ideally whole milk with >3% fat content) to just below the spout.
  2. Attiva Steam: Turn the steam knob to the steam position. Wait for the machine to reach steaming temperature (indicator light stable).
  3. Spurgo lancia vapore: Briefly open the steam knob to release any condensed water. Close the knob.
  4. Latte schiumato: Insert the steam wand tip just below the surface of the milk. Open the steam knob fully. Adjust the pitcher's position to create a swirling motion, incorporating air for foam.
  5. Riscaldare il latte: Once desired foam is achieved, lower the wand deeper into the milk to heat it to approximately 60-65°C (140-150°F). Do not exceed 70°C (160°F).
  6. Interrompere la cottura a vapore: Chiudere la manopola del vapore, quindi rimuovere la caraffa.

Manutenzione e pulizia

Una pulizia e una manutenzione regolari sono essenziali per garantire la longevità e le prestazioni ottimali della tua macchina per l'espresso.

1. Pulizia quotidiana

  • Portafiltro e filtri: After each use, remove the portafilter and discard the coffee grounds. Rinse the portafilter and filter basket under hot water. For the double-lined portafilter basket (approximately 47.5mm), ensure thorough rinsing to prevent coffee residue buildup between the layers. Allow to air dry completely.
  • Capogruppo: Wipe the group head with a damp cloth to remove any coffee grounds. Run a short cycle of hot water without the portafilter to rinse.
  • Lancia vapore: As mentioned in the operating instructions, wipe the steam wand immediately after frothing and purge steam to clear any milk residue.
  • vassoio antigoccia: Svuotare e pulire regolarmente la vaschetta raccogligocce.
  • Serbatoio dell'acqua: Sciacquare il serbatoio dell'acqua ogni giorno e riempirlo con acqua fresca.

2. Decalcificazione

Over time, mineral deposits (limescale) can build up in the machine, affecting performance. Descale your machine every 2-3 months, or more frequently if you have hard water. Use a commercial descaling solution designed for espresso machines and follow the product's instructions. Always rinse the machine thoroughly with several cycles of fresh water after descaling.
