Dose and Tamping', page 13
• Allow time for the machine to reach
operating temperature.
• Fill tank.

• Rinse portafilter under hot water
outlet. Dry thoroughly.

lbs) of pressure.
• Use slightly finer grind. Refer to

• If grinding fresh whole coffee
beans, use freshly roasted coffee
beans with a 'Roasted On' date and
consume between 5–20 days after
that date. If using pre-ground coffee,
use within a week of grinding.
