8 – COFFEE DELIVERY
To obtain a good cup of coffee it's important to use a good quality coffee, well roa -
sted and correctly grinded.
The coffee espresso machine needs the use of a thin mixture grinded; if the grinding
is too coarse we will obtain light and pale coffees and without cream. If the grinding
is too thin we will obtain dark and strong coffees with little cream.
The grinding is optimal when the espresso is black and "creamy". To obtain a good
cup of coffee you should follow these rules: with the machine under pressure put the
filter-basket (16), with grinded coffee, inside the filter-holder (n. 10), and together
under the group; pull up the lever (1) and after few seconds the coffee starts dripping
from the filter holder. The machine will be in the best condition for coffee deliver.
We suggest to grind the coffee, with a coffee-grinder, at the moment of its use, becau -
se once grinded, it looses its fragrance in a short time. Please do not use a blade-type
grinder because it makes too much coffee dust and produces an irregular grind.
