Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first use, ensure the 1.3-liter tank is securely seated and perform a flush cycle by running water through the group head without coffee. The machine utilizes a standard 51mm portafilter; ensure your grind size is optimized for a 51mm basket to avoid over-extraction or flow issues.
To maintain longevity, empty the drip tray daily and descale the internal heating elements every 2-3 months, depending on the hardness of your local water supply. Always wipe down the steam wand immediately after use to prevent milk proteins from hardening and clogging the nozzle. Use a damp, soft cloth to clean the exterior, avoiding abrasive cleaners that may mar the grey finish.
