TIP: With elongated extraction times, increasing amounts of bitter components of
the coffee powder will be extracted. Therefore, it is better to select an extraction
volume that will lead to an extraction time below 40 seconds. If required, use the
hot water function for getting the desired volume (see: 'Operation / Hot Water').

SELECTING THE FILTER BASKET

Filter baskets for 3 different applications are provided. Select the appropriate filter
basket according to the usage. This will help getting the optimum results.
The double-wall filter baskets are designed for slowing down the water flow rate
during brewing, thus extracting your espresso at the correct pressure and leading to
a rich, golden crema. The filter baskets are suited for freshly ground coffee powder
as well as for pre-ground vacuum packed espresso coffee powder. However, it is
better anyway to grind whole coffee beans directly before extraction via the integra-
ted grinder of the machine.
The plain filter baskets provide the whole range of variations derived from any com-
binations of amount, tamping pressure, and grind size. Use this type of filter basket,
when you are experienced. This type of filter basket is not suited for pre-ground cof-
fee powder.

espresso extraction (optimum extraction volume: approx. 30 ml). You should use
