Amount of coffee
The coffee machine can grind and brew
6-14g of coffee beans per cup. The
greater the quantity, the stronger the
coffee.
There are various ways to tell whether
the amount of coffee is set correctly.
The amount of coffee is too low if:
– Espresso or coffee flows into the cup
too quickly.
– The crema is very pale and uneven.
– The espresso or coffee lacks body.
Increase the amount of coffee so that
more ground coffee is brewed.
The amount of coffee is too high if:
– Espresso or coffee only trickles into
the cup.
– The crema is dark brown.
– The espresso or coffee tastes bitter.
Decrease the amount of coffee so that
less ground coffee is brewed.
Useful tip: If the coffee is too strong for
you or it tastes bitter, try a different type
of bean.
Brewing temperature
The ideal brewing temperature will
depend on
– the type of coffee being used,
– whether an espresso or a coffee is
being prepared, and
– the altitude of the region.
If the coffee machine is located at more
than 2000 metres above sea level, the
brewing temperature needs to be set
lower due to the change in pressure.
This is because the boiling point for
water at a high altitude above sea level
is lower than the boiling point for water
at sea level.
Useful tip: Not all types of coffee can
withstand a high temperature. Certain
types are too delicate - the crema on
top would not be as good and the taste
would be impaired.
Pre-brewing ground coffee
When the pre-brewing function is
switched on, the freshly ground coffee
is first moistened with a little hot water.
Then the remaining water is forced
through the moistened coffee at high
pressure. This helps release the flavour
of the coffee.
