How to adjust the intensity and aroma of your coffee

Grind settings

You can adjust the grinder settings using the control in the bean container (from a fine setting for a strong espresso to a coarse setting for a lighter coffee taste). Place a cup under the coffee spout to adjust the degree of grinding. Press the cup of "espresso". When the grinder is activated, change the setting using the key.

Memory settings

With each coffee recipe, you can use the "Memo" button to adjust the strength to your taste and the size of the cup.

Press and hold the button for the desired setting until the “Memo” icon appears or the button starts to flash. The machine changes to the programming state and starts preparing the selected coffee. Depending on the machine model, you can stop this process by pressing the "OK" key or the key just programmed.

Flavor strength settings

To adjust the coffee strength, press the "Aroma strength" button or turn the dial to one of the bean settings. This varies depending on the machine.
