WHAT TO DO
Use slightly coarser grind.
Lower dose of coffee using the
RAZOR™ dosing tool.
Use the fine pin on the provided
cleaning tool to clear the outlet hole(s)
on the underside of the filter basket.
If it continues to be blocked, dissolve
a cleaning tablet in hot water and
soak filter basket and portafilter in the
solution for approx. 20 minutes. Rinse
thoroughly.
Use slightly finer grind.
Increase dose of coffee and use the
RAZOR™ dosing tool to trim off excess
coffee after tamping.
Tamp between 15-20kgs
of pressure.
If the above suggestions do not
help, check the machine. Place an
EMPTY Dual Wall filter basket into the
portafilter (either 1 CUP or 2 CUP).
Press the MANUAL button.
If the pressure gauge reads over 5
bar the machine is OK. Ensure correct
dose by using the RAZOR™ dosing
tool. If the dose is correct, make the
grind finer.
