7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If you encounter any issues with your ACONEE Espresso Coffee Maker, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

• Nessun caffè erogato: Check if the water tank is filled and correctly seated. Ensure the portafilter is properly locked into the brew head. Verify that the coffee beans are loaded in the hopper and the grind setting is appropriate.
• Weak Espresso / Too Fast Extraction: The grind might be too coarse, or the coffee grounds might not be tamped firmly enough. Adjust the grind setting to a finer level and ensure proper tamppressione di avanzamento.
• Bitter Espresso / Too Slow Extraction: The grind might be too fine, or the coffee grounds might be tamped too firmly. Adjust the grind setting to a coarser level and reduce tamppressione di avanzamento.
• Nessun vapore dalla bacchetta: Ensure the machine has preheated sufficiently and the steam function is activated. Check if the steam wand nozzle is clogged; use the cleaning needle to clear it.
• La macchina non si accende: Verificare che il cavo di alimentazione sia collegato saldamente a una presa elettrica funzionante.
