FILTER SIZE

The Barista Express comes with 4 filters:

Dual Wall Filters for Beginners 1 x single shot

1 x double shot

Single Wall Filters for Aspiring Baristas 1 x single shot

1 x double shot

Adjust the FILTER SIZE button according to the filter size you select, and along with the GRIND AMOUNT dial, the correct quantity of ground beans will be dispensed into the filter, ready for extraction.

HANDS FREE, DIRECT GRINDING

The Barista Express features an integrated grinding cradle located below the integrated conical burr grinder which fully supports the portafilter. The ‘hands free’ grinding feature allows you to continue with other preparations while the portafilter is being filled with the selected amount of freshly ground coffee beans.

Place the portafilter into the cradle and simply push the portafilter toward the machine lightly to activate the grind function.

INTEGRATED / REMOVABLE TAMPER

Tamping is the application of even and consistent pressure to the espresso grinds. The tamper is conveniently located ‘on board’ the machine and can be used both in the ‘on board’ position or whilst removed depending on your preference.
