energy saving feature
In general, it is best to avoid leaving any electrical device connected to the power supply
needlessly. Thus, always unplug the appliance from mains power outlet, when not in use. The
pre-selections you adjusted for grind size (COARSE to FINE) and amount per cup/shot (GRIND
AMOUNT) will remain unchanged.
The appliance will automatically switch off when not used for more than 5 minutes. In this case,
the screen and all buttons get dark. To reactivate normal operation, simply press any button
of the operating elements.
Tips for Best results
• Freshly ground coffee is the key to making coffee with more flavour and body.
• Coffee flavour and strength is a personal preference. Vary the type of coffee beans, amount
per cup/shot, and grind size to achieve the flavour you prefer.
• If you are using dual wall filters for your espresso machine, we suggest a coarser grind
size setting in the ESPRESSO range. For single wall filters, use an fine setting (at the right
end of the scale).
• Use freshly roasted coffee beans, preferably with a ‘roasted on’ date.
• Store coffee beans in a dark, cool and dry place. Vacuum seal, if possible.
• Buy in small batches to reduce the storage time and store no more than one week’s supply
at any time.
• Once coffee is ground, it quickly loses its flavour and aroma. For the best results grind be
-
ans shortly before brewing.
• Do not store beans in the bean hopper for a prolonged period.
• When storing the appliance, empty the bean hopper and thereafter run the milling works
empty to remove ground beans left in the milling works.
• If you wish to obtain the maximum freshness of ground coffee, run the milling works for
approx. 2 seconds before each use.
• Clean the bean hopper and milling works regularly.
