G
Regulate the grinding
Note. e grinder has been set in the factory for a medium size grinding, ideal for
the grinding of most types of coee blends, available in the market.
Caution. Regulate the grinding always and only while the grinder is grinding.
G.1 Rotate the grinding wheel (4) to change the coffee granulometry. Rotate
the wheel anti-clock-wise (towards the small points) to obtain a ner grinding,
clock-wise for a coarser grinding.
Note. Micrometric regulation does not require any blockage.
Note. If the coee ow in your espresso machine is very slow, the coee grinding is
too ne, if its quick, the coee grinding is too coarse. Many factors inuence the coee ow
such as: the amount of coee, its pressing, the espresso machine adjustments, how clean the
lters are and also the climatic conditions.
H
Adjust the doses
Note. By using the LCC you can program the grinding time for both doses.
Note. e factory pre-set parameters are 6,0 seconds for 1 dose and 12 seconds for 2
doses. e grinding time can vary from 2 seconds to 20 seconds.
H.1 To enter in the programming mode and change the grinding times, press
the “-” button repeatedly until the display shows the icon and the time (6,0”)
for 1 dose and (12”) for 2 doses.
H.2 Press the “+” button to access, and then press the “-” or “+” button to

decrease or increase the grinding time.
H.3 Three seconds after the last press of a button, LCC stores the data and exits
from settings mode.
I

I.1 Insert the selected lter into the hot lter holder (e).
I.2 Check that the hopper is lled with beans and that it has the cover (1).
I.3 Position the lter holder, with the correct lter inserted, on the fork (10) to
“hook” it with the pin (8).
I.4 To grind 1 dose, press once the grinding switch (9) (PUSH). The grinder
grinds the dose ac-cording to the set time. Wait until the grinding is over. Re-
move the lter holder from the fork (10).
I.5 To grind 2 doses, press twice the grinding switch (9) (PUSH). The 2 presses
have to be within 2 seconds. The grinder grinds the dose according to the set

The “5 M’s”
If you want to make perfect Espressos,
you should start by ensuring the ve es-
sential factors which turn a simple cup of
coffee into an Espresso for connoisseurs!
These are the “5 M’s”; in Italian: miscela
(blend), macinatura (grinding), macchina
(machine), manualità (skill) and manutenzi-
one (maintenance).
1- Miscela (Blend)
Good Espressos are always made with
a good blend of coffee. An Espresso
with the right taste requires a blend of
two types of coffee, Arabica and Robus-
ta. The rst gives the coffee its delicate
aroma and the right amount of acidity,
while the second type gives it its full
taste, body and cream. The quantities
depend on your own taste. Try out dif-
ferent combinations until you nd the
blend you like best!
2- Macinatura (Grinding)
The grinder is a must for making good
Espresso. Coffee should always be
ground just before it is used so that it
preserves its taste and aroma. The Lelit
grinders let you adjust the grinding level
to suit the coffee blend in order to es-
tablish the correct extraction time and
amount of cream.
3- Macchina espresso
(Espresso machine)
Lelit machines are designed and built
so that the water temperature can be
adjusted to suit your needs. In addition,
setting this variable correctly will allow
you to extract from the ground coffee,
not only the soluble substances that
give it taste, but also the non-soluble
ones that give body and avour to your
coffee.
4- Manualità (Skill)
Half of the result depends on how you
use the machine. A passionate expert
is an essential part of the Espresso
production chain and can enhance the
result to bring additional value to the
nal product. Passion and practice are,
therefore, the secrets to learning how to
use the machine. You can experiment
with different blends of coffee, grinding,
pressing, water temperature and pres-
sure, not just to make an Espresso, but
06.
The art of Espresso coffee
Contrary to what you might think, making a perfect Espresso is not that easy.
It takes experience, ability, passion and a little bit of curiosity. In this paragraph
we would like to share with you some of the basic rules for making a perfect
cup of Espresso.
Suggested doses:
Ristretto (Strong) about 20 ml – Espresso about 30 ml – Lungo (Long) about 60 ml.
VIP Line - Kate - PL82T
20
to make the one that is just right for you.
5- Manutenzione (Maintenance)
Daily maintenance, scheduled mainte-
nance and care of the machine will ensure
the quality of the beverage and the dura-
bility of the product you have purchased.
A clean machine says a lot about your
passion for coffee making.
Coffee varieties
The choice of the blend is an essential
factor for making the ideal coffee for
your taste. There are a lot of different
varieties of coffee blends on the market
to choose from. The differences in a-
vour, aroma and texture depend on the
quantities of the two varieties of coffee
that make the blend.
Arabica
This is a sweeter and more delicate va-
riety of coffee, with a rich aroma and
cream that is very thin, dense and com-
pact.
Robusta
It is grown between 200/600 m
Spicy aroma.
Caffeine between 1.8 ~ 4%
Arabica
It is grown between 900/2000 m
Rich aroma.
Caffeine between 0.9 ~ 1.7%
Robusta
This variety is woody, bitter, full-
bodied and spicy, with little aroma.
Its cream is more frothy and grey.
Robusta

No variety of coffee can make an ideal
Espresso on its own.
The perfect Espresso has a top layer
of cream 2-3 mm thick, a nut brown to
dark brown colour, with reddish tinges
and light streaks, a harmonious avour,
a strong, balanced aroma and a sweet,
long-lasting aftertaste.
It has a strong aroma with notes of o-
wers, fruits, toast and chocolate. These
sensations can last just a moment or can
persist for a few minutes in your mouth.
The taste is round and well structured.
The acid and bitter perceptions are well
balanced whereas there is little or no as-
tringency.
The ideal parameters to obtain this type
of coffee are:
7 ± 0,5 g. of ground coee.
25 seconds to brew 30 ml.
88 / 92°C when brewing and 80°C in the cup.
8 /10 bar pressure during extraction.
Even Arabica blends often contain a
small amount of Robusta, which is ne-
cessary to enhance the cream and add
aroma and body to the espresso.
Blends made for coffee bars usually
contain 20% Robusta but in southern
Italy, where they prefer a stronger taste,
the percentage can reach 40-50%. At
the end of the day, it’s just a matter of
taste…Experiment until you nd the
blend you like best!
