Important: Only adjust the fineness of
the grind during the grinding process.
Adjustments of the grind while not in use
may cause damage to the espresso machine.
Setting the fineness of the grind
• With a cup placed under the espresso pour
spout, press the one cup coffee button.
While the grinding process is running,
adjust the fineness of the grind using the
‘coffee grind selector’ lever. See figure 40.
Removing foreign matter from the grinding
mechanism
Foreign matter in the grinder, e.g. small
stones or wood chips, may cause damage to
the grinding mechanism.
The Café Barista™ is designed with a ‘stone
safety device’ which, in case of foreign
matter, causes an even, loud rattling. If you
should hear this noise during grinding, switch
the espresso machine off immediately and
remove the foreign matter as follows:
Cleaning the grinding mechanism
• Switch the espresso machine off by
pressing the ‘POWER’ button and unplug
the power cord from the power outlet.
• Turn the ‘coffee bean hopper’ to the
position marked ‘HOPPER RELEASE’ and
take it off. See figure 41.
• Remove the any coffee beans in the
grinding mechanism. We suggest using
the cleaning brush supplied with the Café
Barista™ (or, possibly a vacuum cleaner
with a hose or nozzle). See figure 42. If
any foreign matter cannot be removed,
proceed with the next step.
• Slide the ‘grinding mechanism release’
button to the front in the direction of the
grinding mechanism. Hold this position
and turn the ‘coffee grind’ lever clockwise
by approximately 1 revolution up to the
stop. See figure 43.
• Now detach the grinding ring by lifting it
out and remove any foreign matter(s). See
figure 44.
Important: There is risk of injury by turning
grinding gear. Never switch the espresso
machine on while working with the grinding
mechanism. This may cause severe injury.
Always unplug the power cord from the power
outlet.
