COFFEE DOSE and TAMPING
• Wipe co ee basket with a dry cloth.
• Using Single Wall lter baskets, grind
enough co ee to ll the co ee basket.
You may need to experiment with the
GRIND AMOUNT dial to achieve the
correct dose.
• Tap the porta lter several times to
collapse and distribute the co ee evenly
in the lter basket.
• Tamp down rmly (using approx.
15–20kgs of pressure). The amount of
pressure is not as important as consistent
pressure every time.
• As a guide to dose, the top edge of the
metal cap on the tamper should be level
with the top of the lter basket AFTER the
co ee has been tamped.
COFFEE MAKING TIPS & PREPARATION
TRIMMING THE DOSE
• Insert the Razor™ dosing tool into the
co ee basket until the shoulders of the
tool rest on the rim of the basket. The
blade of the dosing tool should penetrate
the surface of the tamped co ee.
• Rotate the Razor™ dosing tool back and
forth while holding the porta lter on
an angle over the knock box to trim o
excess co ee grinds. Your co ee lter
basket is now dosed with the correct
amount of co ee.
• Wipe excess co ee from the rim of the
lter basket to ensure a proper seal is
achieved in the group head.
NOTE
If the extraction is too fast, make the
