The grind size will affect the rate of water
flow through the coffee in the filter basket
and the flavour of the espresso. When
setting the grind size, it should be fine but
not too fine and powdery.
There are 18 settings on the GRIND SIZE
select dial - The smaller the number, the
finer the grind size. The larger the number,
the coarser the grind size. We recommend
you start at the No. 5 setting and adjust
as required.
