Using Pre-Brew Timers
The pre-brew timer allows the barista to minimize brew actuator movement while
still making use of the pre-brew function. It can be activated, deactivated, and
programmed with the corresponding buttons and knobs; see instructions under
“Using Slayer > Adjust Pre-Brew Timer” on page 24.
To prepare espresso with the pre-brew timer functionality,
1. Use the push button to activate the pre-brew timer functionality.
2. Grind, dose, and tamp coffee as usual, then lock the portafilter in the
grouphead.
3. Move the brew actuator to the "full brew" position to begin extraction. Slayer
will automatically initiate the pre-brew and full brew stages.
4. Allow the espresso to brew until the preferred extraction has been achieved
(when blonding occurs, when the desired beverage yield has dispensed, or
when the desired brew time has elapsed), then move the actuator to the
"off" position.
5. Remove the portafilter from the grouphead and knock out spent coffee. Wipe
the portafilter with a clean towel to remove grounds and oil.
6. Briefly move the brew actuator to the "full brew" position to purge grounds
and oil from the dispersion screen. Move the grouphead to the "off" position
and return the portafilter.
Pre-Heat Tank Temperature
At the Slayer studio, brew tanks are set for optimal performance at to 85°C
(185°F). We do not recommend changing the preheat temperature. Changes to the
pre-heat temperature may negatively affect the machine’s performance and pose a
safety risk. Please contact your Slayer representative, reseller, or technician before
changing this setting.
NOTE: The steam and pre-heat tanks’ Love Controller has an "F" printed on its
plastic exterior, which indicates temperature readings in degrees Fahrenheit.
However, the actual temperature may read in either Fahrenheit or Celsius,
depending on your request at the time of ordering.!
