I.1 / I.2 Models operation

Assemble the coffee bean hopper 3

o n

its position.

 

Fill it with cof fee beans in such

an

amount as to be consumed on a daily basis. Put the hopper lid 2 on its position.

Connect the power cord mains.

Push the ON-OFF switch 1 to turn the machine on. The built-in led will be on. The grinder will then be ready for grinding.

Both models feature a timer device that allows the operator to adjust in advance the grinding time (a minimum of 8 seconds and a maximum of 60 seconds) by using re g u l a t o r 6 . Every time ground coffee is re q u i red, the machine filter holder must be placed under the cof fee

spout 8 and guided by the switch holder fork 9 , pressing the switch 1 0

.

Tu rning the timer re g u l a t o r 6 c l o c k w i s e will result in an increase of grinding time, whereas turning it counterclockwise

decreases grinding time.(FIG.1)

We recommend that grinding time must be set for a production equivalent to 7g

/0.25 oz of coffee: between 20 and 25 seconds. Check the adjustment, which may vary depending on type of coffee and grinding discs wear.

Once the dose is on the filter holder, press the coffee by using a manual tamper for brewing your espresso.

I.1D / I.2D Models operation

Connect the power cord 7 to the mains.

Push the ON-OFF switch 1 to turn the machine on. The built-in led will be on and the grinder will then star t grinding coffee, which will be stored at the dose dispenser 1 2 .

Push the ON-OFF switch 1 to turn the machine off and stop grinding coffee.

For having the ground coffee dose dispensed, the machine filter holder must be placed on the suppor t fork 1 3 .

Pull the dose dispenser lever to get a cof fee dose (7-8 g / 0.25-0.28 oz) allowing the lever to return to its former position by itself.

Once the dose is on the filter holder, press the coffee by using a manual tamper for brewing your espresso..

3. Grinding point and regulation

The grinding point (coarser or finer) will depend on the coffee blend quality used, its roasting point, humidity (the more humid the conditions are the coarser the grinding point must be) and cof fee machine conditions.

Therefore, it is necessar y to adjust the grinding point periodically (on a daily basis). To do that we must use the grinding regulator 5 located on the upper right side of the machine. If we t u rn the regulator for ward (clockwise) we will obtain a finer grinding, whereas t u rning it backwards (counterc l o c k w i s e ) will result in a coarser grinding point.(FIG.2)

The grinding point is factor y adjusted for a medium grinding point. It is therefore necessary to proceed with a preliminar y grinding adjustment to achieve the best grinding quality.

It is recommended that you check the espresso coffee result on the cup and its taste, taking into consideration that an excessively coarse regulation results in lighter coffees (watered) with neither aroma nor cream, whereas an excessively fine regulation results in s h o rt shots, strong and dense in excess.
