The machine has been set up to get the best taste out of your coffee beans. Therefore we
advise you not to adjust the grinder settings until you have brewed 100-150 cups (approx. 1
month of use).
You can only adjust the grind settings when the machine is grinding coffee beans. You need
to brew 2 to 3 drinks before you can taste the full difference.
Do not turn the grind setting knob more than one notch at a time to prevent damage to the
grinder.
