FAQ

• Q: How often should I describe the machine?
  • A : Descaling should be done every 2-3 months depending on usage and water hardness.
• Q: Can I use flavored coffee beans in the machine?
  • A : It is not recommended as flavored beans may affect the machine’s internal components.

The lack of maintenance of the machine would not only affect your coffee taste but also lower the performance or even shorten the lifespan of your machine. For you to  better maintain your machine, we’ve prepared some helpful tips for you as follows. Our 2-in-1 smart espresso coffee machine is mainly composed of a coffee-brewing part and a milk-frothing part.

In daily use, limescale gradually builds up inside the machine’s water pipes and heaters where water flows through. This machine can brew coffee or froth milk independently and these 2 functions with independent water pipes, hence each time either brewing coffee or frothing milk will be considered as one count of use. We suggest descaling the machine when the machine reaches a certain count ofuse. The number“ 100” mentioned below is the total count of use that includes both coffee brewing and milk frothing.

Before Use

• A. Please make sure that the rubber plug of the water outlet of the water tank is removed;
• B. It is recommended to use pure water;
• C. Please fill enough water in advance but do not exceed the MAX line of the water tank, and do not add too little water, otherwise when the water runs out the water pump will make a loud noise and affect the coffee effect;
• D. A great espresso is about achieving the perfect balance between sweetness, acidity, and bitterness. The flavour of your coffee will depend on many factors, such as the freshness of coffee beans, the roast degree of coffee beans, grind size, grind dose, tamping force, water temperature, cup size and shot volume. Experi -ment by adjusting these 10 factors just one at a time to achieve the taste of your preference. Ensure that coffee is made according to the following 10 requirements:

The freshness of Coffee Beans

We recommend quality 100% Arabica beans with a‘ Roasted On’ date stamped on the bag, not a‘ Best Before’ or‘ Use By’ date. Coffee beans are best consumed between 5‒20 days after the‘ Roasted On’ date. Stale coffee may pour too quickly from the portafilter spouts and taste bitter and watery.

Roast Degree of Coffee Beans

For making espresso, medium- or dark-roasted coffee beans are well-suited. If you use light-roasted coffee beans, the final coffee will be lighter in both its color and flavor.

Grind Size

To make a good espresso, a fine grind is a must. When grinding coffee beans, the grind size should be fine but not too fine. The grind size will affect the rate at which the water flows through the ground coffee in the filter basket and the taste of the espresso. If the grind is too fine (looks like powder and feels like flour when rubbed between the fingers), the water will not flow through the coffee even when under pressure. The resulting espresso will be OVER EXTRACTED, dark in color, and bitter in flavor. Besides, a too-fine grind will more easily lead to a blockage in which water overflows through the edges of the portafilter. If the grind is too coarse, the water will flow through the ground coffee in the filter basket too quickly. The resulting espresso will be UNDER EXTRACTED and lacking in color and flavor.

Grind Dose

Add a proper amount of coffee grinds to the portafilter, the dose of the double cup is around 14 grams but does not over the MAX line.

Tamping Force

Using the tamper, tamp down the coffee grinds firmly with pressure around 10-15kg but not too hard to avoid a blockage, in which water overflows through the edges of the portafilter. The amount of pressure is not as important as the consistent pressure every time. After tamping, make sure to wipe away any excess coffee grinds on the edges of the portafilter before installing it into the group head.

Water Temperature

Before brewing, make sure the knob is in the ” ” position and the temperature is suitable, at this point, the espresso function indicator illuminates green, and the MILK STEAMING button is not being pressed down. The espresso function indicator is the only correct indicator for brewing coffee, and the thermometer gauge is only for reference. When the espresso function or the steam indicator lights up, it means the temperature right now is suitable for brewing coffee.

TAKE NOTE OF THE BELOW 2 CASES OF MISOPERATION:

CASE 1- Low Temperature

The machine is just turned on and in the process of pre-heating, so it has not reached a suitable temperature for brewing coffee. Before brewing coffee, make sure the pre-heating process has finished, at this moment, the espresso function indicator illuminates green solid on.

CASE 2- High Temperature

The suitable temperature for brewing coffee is around 92 degrees Celsius(198 degrees Fahrenheit). If you accidentally press the MILK STEAMING button or immediately brew coffee after steaming, the temperature will be too high, and it is not suitable for brewing coffee.

WHAT TO DO?

If the MILK STEAMING button is being pressed down, reset the MILK STEAMING button to its initial state and The espresso function indicator will flash. Wait until the temperature is cool down to an appropriate temperature for coffee, at this point, the espresso function indicator is solid then press the BREWING ESPRESSO button for brewing. Here 2 ways to cool down the machine:

1. Wait for the machine to lower down to a suitable temperature, but this will take some time.
2. Release the steam by turning the knob to the hot water icon to shorten the cooling time. Wait for the machine to stop releasing hot water from the steam wand. Now, the machine is ready for brewing coffee.

If the machine just finished steaming, do not brew coffee immediately. Make sure the MILK STEAMING button to its initial state, you can follow the above for cooling down the machine to a suitable temperature and then brew coffee.

Purging the Group Head

Before placing the portafilter into the group head, run a short flow of water through the group head by pressing the BREWING ESPRESSO button. This will stabilize the temperature prior to extraction.

Cups

If for 2 shots with 1 cup, it is recommended that the capacity of the cup is about 100mL. While for 2 shots with 2 cups or 1 shot with 1 cup, it is recommended that each cup is about 50mL. The cups without pre-heating or too large will make the temperature of the espresso drop quickly, resulting in a poor flavor.

Extracting Espresso Speed

If the group head, filter basket, and portafilter are not blocked, as a guide, the espresso will start to flow after 8-12 seconds (infusion time) and should be the consistency of dripping honey. If the espresso starts to flow after less than 7 seconds, you have either under-dosed the filter basket and /or the grind is too coarse. This is an UNDER EXTRACTED shot. If the espresso starts to drip but doesn’t flow after 12 seconds, the grind is too fine. This is an OVER EXTRACTED shot.

Shot Volume

Around 40mL per cup is recommended.

• E. Place the handle of the portafilter in the INSERT position of the machine, put it upward into the Group Head, and rotate it counterclockwise until the handle of the portafilter is at a 90-degree angle to the machine and the three ears of the portafilter should be stuck on the machine.

In Use

• A. If the water runs out midway, refill the water tank. To ensure the best flavor of the coffee, discard the used coffee grinds, and restart brewing with fresh coffee grinds.
• B. Do not remove the portafilter when it is in use to avoid scalding.
• C. If the portafilter is not installed in place during brewing, turn off the POWER Button to stop the brewing, and then wait for 20 seconds before detaching the portafilter.

After Use

After regular use, water can cause mineral build-up in and on many of the inner functioning components, reducing the brewing flow, brewing temperature, power of the machine, and the taste of the espresso, or even shortening the lifespan of your machine. Please strictly follow the instructions and requirements bel- ow to clean the coffee-brewing part and its accessories to keep your machine’s best performance and your coffee taste.

After Each Brew

1. To avoid coffee grinds in the portafilter splashing and collapsing,and accompanied by a “bang” sound, wait 20 seconds to let the machine relieve the pressure then twist the portafilter out of the machine clockwise.
2. Discard the coffee puck in the portafilter.
3. Align the marking dot on the filter with the groove on the portafilter and remove it from the portafilter.
4. Rinse the front and back of the filter under the faucet, and finally rinse the inner holes and the outer holes with water.
5. Rinse the inner and outer holes of the portafilter with clean water, and be warned that do not wash the portafil -ter with any descaler.
6. Use a clean cloth to wipe the filter and portafilter dry.
7. Press the BREWING ESPRES- SO button to dispense water to clean the coffee grinds around the group head, then press it again to stop.
8. Use a clean cloth to wipe the coffee grinds left on the group head.

**Whenever Less/No Water Flows from the Tank to the Portfilter**

There are 5 possibilities that cause water unable or less water to flow from the water tank to the portafilter:

• a. The compressed air in the pump sticks
• b. The Group Head of the machine is blocked
• c. The two water outlets of the portafilter are blocked
• d. Incorrect operation method
• e. Incorrect operation method

You can troubleshoot and resolve by following the instructions: Step 1: Pinpoint the cause of the problem

1. The machine makes a lot of noise and when the funnel is not installed, the Group Head does not come out of the water, the problem is a.
2. Do not install the portafilter then to see if there is water coming out, If the machine produces little water, the problem is b.
3. Complete 1 and confirm that the Group Head can flow water, install the portafilter(without the filter) to the machine to see if there is water coming out, if not, the problem is d.
4. Complete 2 and confirm that the portafilter can flow water, install the portafilter with the filter to the machine to see if there is water coming out, if not, the problem is c, if yes, the problem is e.

Step2：Solution for the problem

1-Solution for a:

If no water comes out.It may be caused by the compressed air in the boiler blocking the flow.Why is the compressed air in the boiler, there are 3 possibilities.

1. a new machine.
2. The machine is idle for a period of time.
3. The user accidentally started the water pump without connecting the water supply.

For a detailed explanation of this issue, see the following video, made not by Gevi but by other experts, as this is common with espresso machines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQiVP5ijdIk

So you can troubleshoot and resolve the problem by following the instructions:

Method 1:

2. Plug in the power supply, turn on the switch, wait for the coffee green light to blink steadily, select the knob to the hot water icon, and let the machine work for 30 minutes. The purpose of this step is to hope that the water will enter the pump through the atmospheric pressure and the height difference of the machine. Then reset the knob to the initial position and turn off the machine and unplug it from the power supply.

3. Let the machine sit for a day. Note that the water in the tank does not need to be poured out. The purpose of this step is to use the pressure of the water pump to wet the bonding place of the water pump.

4. After one day, plug in the power supply, turn on the switch, wait for the coffee green light to blink steadily, and select the knob to the hot water icon.Let machine work 60 minutes.

Method 2:

If method 1 does not work, please follow the following steps：

1. Remove the water tank
2. Select the knob to the hot water icon
3. Suck up the water with the syringe, then align the plug with the water inlet of the tank and slowly inject the water.
4. Check if there is water released from the steam pipe, if yes, it means the machine can resume normal operation.
5. Install the water tank and start the machine to check whether it is successful.
   For you to better understand the above, we have made a video for you to show what to do, pls view the video via the link below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sWg40RhbXA

Solution for b:

The descaling steps are the same as that in ” B. After 100 Uses “. But in step 9, you need to let the machine stand for 3 days.

Solution for c:

1. Rinse the front and back of the filter under the faucet, and finally rinse the inner holes and the outer holes with water.
2. Ues a brush to brush the inner surface, inner and outer holes of the filter.
