Perfect Extraction

• Rinse group handle and basket to remove any impurities 
• custom grind fresh coffee just before use (this may take a few goes to get the perfect grind for the perfect extraction the first time around)
• use the correct dose of coffee in the group handle
• use a light tamp with a slight twist
• pre flush the group head
• press the volumetric button within 3 seconds (as coffee will burn if left in the group head)
• the shot should run for 18 - 22 seconds on most machines when using Merlo Coffee
• you should be left with a 30ml shot with perfect golden crema
