THE GRIND
When grinding coffee beans, the grind size
should be fine, but not too fine. The grind size
will affect the rate at which water flows through
the ground coffee in the filter basket and the
taste of the espresso.
If the grind is too fine (looks like powder and feels
like flour when rubbed between the fingers), the
water will not flow through the coffee, even when
under pressure. The resulting espresso will be
OVER EXTRACTED, dark in colour and bitter
in flavour.
If the grind is too coarse, the water will flow
through the ground coffee in the filter basket too
quickly. The resulting espresso will be UNDER
EXTRACTED and lacking in colour and flavour.
SETTING THE GRIND SIZE
This machine has 30 grind settings to select
from, with the size selected displayed on the
LCD screen. The default grind size is 15.
When adjusting the grind size, a bar will display
on the LCD indicating a faster or slower pour.
