Product Information
Full details
The Daewoo 'Flava' 20 Bar One-Touch Espresso Coffee Machine is designed for home baristas and coffee enthusiasts who want cafe-quality drinks without the complexity of manual brewing. Its primary advantage is the integrated milk frothing system and digital touch display, which automate lattes and cappuccinos with high-pressure extraction. However, users should note that as a fully automated system, it requires regular descaling and cleaning of the internal milk lines to maintain consistent performance.

FAQs
Can I use coffee beans in this machine?
No, the 'Flava' is designed specifically for ground espresso coffee.
How often should I use the automatic cleaning programme?
It is recommended to run the cleaning cycle immediately after making any drink that utilizes the milk tank to prevent residue buildup.
Does the machine require special descaling solution?
While generic coffee machine descaler is usually compatible, please refer to the specific manual instructions for the approved type.
What is the benefit of 20 bar pressure?
A higher bar pressure (20 bar) helps produce a more consistent crema and fuller flavor extraction compared to standard 15 bar machines.
Can I use non-dairy milk?
Yes, but results may vary based on the protein and fat content of the plant-based milk; barista-edition plant milks typically perform best.
Troubleshooting
Milk is not frothing correctly
Ensure the milk tank is clean and properly seated. Check that the froth adjustment dial is not blocked or set to the lowest position.
Coffee extraction is too slow or dripping
The grind may be too fine or the portafilter is over-packed. Try using a slightly coarser grind or using less coffee in the basket.
Machine will not start a brew
Check that the water tank is full and correctly inserted, and verify that the drip tray is not full.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your machine, place it on a flat, stable surface and run a water-only cycle through all beverage settings to prime the pump and clear the internal lines. Always ensure the milk tank is securely clicked into position before attempting to brew milky drinks. Compatibility is optimized for medium-to-fine ground coffee. For care, run the automatic cleaning programme after every use involving milk to prevent buildup in the frothing tubes. Weekly, remove the milk tank and rinse it with warm, soapy water. Descale the unit every 3-6 months depending on local water hardness to ensure the pressure system remains efficient.
