HINTS AND TIPS

Ground coffee does not stay fresh for as long as coffee beans. If you are using ground coffee, watch expiry dates and buy in small amounts.
If you are grinding coffee beans, set your grinder to a fine/medium grind, and try to use the ground coffee within a week of grinding. Very finely ground coffee may cause the portafilter to overflow.
Store unused coffee grounds in a cool, dry place. If you open a packet of coffee tightly reseal it and store in the fridge to maintain freshness.
To avoid the Espresso Maker overflowing, use less ground coffee when brewing decaf or flavoured coffee.
For hotter coffee, pre-heat before brewing.
