As a general rule any type of coffee available on the
market can be used. however, coffee is a natural product
and its flavor changes according to its origin and blend.
Therefore it is a good idea to try different types, in order
to find the most suited to your personal taste.
For best results, we recommend using blends which are
made especially for espresso coffee machines. Coffee
should always be dispensed by the Portafilter without a
"dripping" effect.
the speed of coffee dispensing can be modified by
slightly changing the amount of coffee in the filter and/or
using a different coffee grind.
