Setup
Unboxing u Tqegħid Inizjali
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Place the espresso machine on a stable, level surface. Ensure adequate clearance around the machine for ventilation and access to the water reservoir.

Water Reservoir Setup
Locate the water reservoir at the back of the machine. Remove it, rinse thoroughly with clean water, and fill it with fresh, cold water up to the MAX line. Reinsert the reservoir securely into the machine.
Initial Priming
Before first use, or if the water tank has been emptied, the machine circuit must be primed. Place a container under the steam wand. Turn the steam knob counter-clockwise to dispense hot water until a steady stream of water flows out. This purges air from the system and ensures proper operation.
Tisħin Up
Press the power button to turn on the machine. The indicator lights will illuminate. Allow the machine to heat up until the indicator lights for brewing and steaming are solid, indicating it has reached optimal operating temperature. This typically takes under 10 minutes from a cold start.

Tħaddem il-Magna
Preparazzjoni tal-espresso
- Tħin tal-Kafè: Use fresh, high-quality coffee beans. Grind them to a fine consistency suitable for espresso. The machine comes with commercial single and double shot filter baskets for ground coffee, as well as a pressurized basket for pre-ground coffee or ESE pods.
- Dożaġġ u Tamping: Fill the appropriate filter basket with your desired amount of ground coffee (e.g., 18g for a double shot). Distribute the grounds evenly. Use a tamper to compress the coffee grounds firmly and level.
- Daħħal il-Portafilter: Securely insert the portafilter into the group head of the machine.
- Preparazzjoni tal-Espresso: Place your pre-heated espresso cup(s) under the portafilter spouts. Press the brew button. The machine will extract espresso at 9 bars of pressure. Monitor the extraction time and volume for optimal results.

Ħalib tal-fwar
- Bastun tal-Fwar tat-Tneħħija: Before steaming, open the steam knob briefly to purge any condensed water from the steam wand. Close the knob once steam appears.
- Position Milk Pitcher: Immerse the tip of the commercial steam wand just below the surface of cold milk in a stainless steel pitcher.
- Ħalib bil-fwar: Open the steam knob fully. Lower the pitcher slightly to introduce air into the milk, creating microfoam. Once the desired texture is achieved, immerse the wand deeper to heat the milk to your preferred temperature (typically 140-150°F or 60-65°C). Close the steam knob and remove the pitcher.

Tneħħija tal-ġebla regolari
To maintain optimal performance and extend the lifespan of your machine, regular descaling is essential. Use Gaggia descaling solution as per the product instructions. The frequency of descaling depends on your water hardness and usage.
Flus lura
Perform backflushing with an appropriate backflush insert and espresso machine cleaning powder (e.g., Urnex Cafiza) to clean the group head and three-way solenoid valve. Refer to the cleaning product instructions for detailed steps.

Issolvi l-problemi
- No Water Flow / Pump Noise: Check the water reservoir level. This machine does not have a low water sensor, so manual monitoring is required. Refill the reservoir if empty.
- Estrazzjoni tal-Espresso fqira: Ensure coffee is ground to the correct fineness and tamped evenly. Adjust the OPV (Over Pressure Valve) for optimal pressure (tool-less adjustment available).
- Pre-infusion Issues: The pre-infusion function on this model may cause the coffee puck to unsettle due to the solenoid valve closing during the pause. It is recommended to avoid using the pre-infusion function if this issue occurs.
- Watery Steamed Milk: The steam wand may introduce a significant amount of water into the milk during steaming. Ensure proper purging of the wand before use and adjust technique to minimize water content.
