Fill the water tank or connect the water supply, fill the bean hopper, and power on the machine. After power‑up, calibrate the grinder before you begin beverage preparation.
8Why should l calibrate the grind?
Each cup of coffee requires a relatively fixed amount of coffee grounds. However, the output of grounds per grinding cycle varies depending on the bean type. By calibrating the grinder, the machine dispenses the exact required amount of grounds, ensuring consistent quality for every cup.

Re-calibrate your grind if:
1. you change to different beans; or
2. the components are worn over time, in which case the amount of grounds may be inconsistent.
11Shall l change the beverage configurations in my new machine?
Your new machine’s default beverage settings are derived from popular preferences based on big‑data analysis. You may adjust these settings if you prefer a different coffee taste.
12What is the milk fridge for? Do l need one?
The best milk temperature is between 2 to 6 degrees. it is recommended that you use your coffee machine with a matching mini‑fridge to keep the milk temperature right.
