Troubleshooting
Coffee flows too slowly
The grind may be too fine or the coffee is tamped too firmly. Adjust your grind size to be slightly coarser.
Milk is not foaming well
Ensure the steam wand nozzle is clean and not blocked. Use fresh, cold milk and submerge the tip of the wand just below the surface.
Water leaking from the portafilter
Check that the filter basket is inserted correctly and that the portafilter is fully tightened into the group head.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your machine, place it on a flat, stable surface and rinse the water tank thoroughly before filling. Before the first use, run a brewing cycle with only water to flush the system. For daily care, wipe the steam wand with a damp cloth immediately after use to prevent milk residue buildup. Periodically descale the machine based on your local water hardness to maintain the pump performance. Always ensure the filter basket is locked securely into the group head by turning the portafilter handle firmly to the right. The machine is compatible with standard ESE (Easy Serving Espresso) pods, which can be placed directly into the single-shot filter basket.
