Information on recipes
Depending on the recipe selected, your Espresso Automatic EA84XX will automatically adjust
the quantity of ground coffee.
Preparing the grinder
You can adjust the strength of your coffee by adjusting the size of the ground coffee beans. In
general, the finer the coffee grounds the stronger and creamier the coffee, however this
depends on the type of coffee used.
Adjust the size of the ground beans by turning the ‘Coffee grinding setting’ button (L) on the
bean tank. You are advised to do this during the grinding process and gradually. After three
preparations, you will notice a very distinctive difference in taste.
The grinding setting is useful when you change coffee type or if you would like a stronger or
weaker coffee. It is not recommended that you perform this setting systematically.
