Informative Summary

12-Cup Carafe and Single Serve Coffee Maker

For a perfect cup of coffee every time, it is crucial to get the grind size, amount of coffee, and tamping right. Too coarse a grind, insufficient coffee, or inadequate tamping before brewing can all result in inadequate pressure, leading to subpar coffee. Additionally, note that the amount of espresso extracted will vary based on your chosen grind size and coffee quantity, and you may need to adjust the settings accordingly.
