How to programme the quantity of espresso and hot water?

Of course, we all like our coffee a certain way. Our Espresso Machine's pre-programmed dose selector makes it easy to make one or two shots at the touch of a button, but you can also choose your own amount of espresso and water per shot, and programme it into your machine. These customised settings will then be saved, even if you lose power to your machine.

To change pre-programmed Espresso Volume for 1 / 2 shots

Toggle the Mode Button to select Espresso. Select the dose you desire to programme (1 or 2). Press and hold the Start/Cancel Button until the desired espresso amount is reached in your cup. While programming your selected dose, the Dose and the Start/Cancel button lights will blink. These lights will stop blinking when programming is complete.

To change pre-programmed Water Volume for 1 / 2 shots
