If coffee comes out of the espresso
machine very quickly, it means the coffee
has been ground too coarse. Vice versa,
if it comes out too slowly, it means the
coffee has been ground too fine.
Note:
There are many variables that can
affect coffee preparation, including
temperature, humidity, espresso machine
settings, the cleaning of the filters and
freshness of the roast. All of them can
cause slight variations in shot times.
The size of the coffee granules is extremely
important for preparing a good cup of
coffee, along with the type of coffee blend
used. Ideal grind can be determined by
making various coffees with the amount of
ground coffee that you would normally use
for each cup (we recommend at least 6g).
The best grind is that which allows coffee
to flow out from portafilter spouts neither
too slowly, drop by drop, nor too quickly.
A general rule is that a double dose should
dispense approximately 60ml of espresso in
approximately 25 seconds. This time may
be adjusted by varying grind coarseness.
8.5. Adjusting Dose Quantity
SWIFT MINI is set to dose approximately
16 to 18 grams of coffee in a 22mm
basket
.
In order to increase coffee dose, disk
must be rotated anticlockwise; whereas to
decrease, turn disks clockwise.
Disk remain in chosen position without
having to be locked in place.
9. General Warnings Operation
- Do not insert, when filling the hopper
with coffee beans, foreign objects. Handle
with clean hands.
- After any hopper filling and during
appliance normal use, hopper lid must be
positioned correctly.
- For the correct use of the grinding
blades, at the first installation or whenever
the grinding blades have been replaced,
grind some doses of coffee. Do not use
those first doses.
For the appliance to function at its best,
on first installation and every time the
hopper is cleaned, after having ground a
few coffee doses, clean the inner surface
of the funnel with a dry brush.
- In single-phase motor versions, observe
the duty cycle stated in the label located
on the side of the appliance.
10. Safety devices
Appliance’s motor is protected against
overcurrents by means of a thermal
overload protection which, when tripped,
cuts off power supply to the motor.
Should the protection trip as a result of
anomalous operation, such as grinding
blades jamming, the appliance must be
turned off using the ON-OFF switch, then
unplugged from the mains, and skilled
technical personnel is to be contacted.
Never perform any work on the appliance
while it is attached to the mains, in order
to avoid the risk that motor turns on
suddenly.
If the appliance overheats as a result of
a motor stoppage, allow it to cool down
before performing any repair work.
The hopper must always be attached to
upper grinding blade holder using the
relevant screw, which must not be removed
by the user under any circumstances.
