Grinder setting

You can adjust the grinder setting to suit the type of coffee you are using.

When the beans are ground correctly, the coffee or espresso will flow evenly into the cup with a good crema.

The crema should have an even nut-brown colour.

There are various ways to tell whether the coffee grinder is set correctly.

The coffee is too coarsely ground, if

–espresso or coffee flows into the cup too quickly.

–the crema is very pale and uneven. Set a finer grinder setting.

The coffee is too finely ground, if

–espresso or coffee only trickles into the cup.

–the crema is dark brown.

Set a coarser grinder setting.

To avoid damaging the grinder:

only ever adjust the grinder by one setting at a time. Grind the coffee beans again if you want to adjust the grinder to the next setting.

^Open the lid on the right hand side of the coffee machine.

^ Press the ￿ or ￿ button.

^Turn the rotary control for the grinder setting anti-clockwise, if you want the beans to be ground more finely.

or

^Turn the rotary control for the grinder setting clockwise, if you want the beans to be ground more coarsely.
