1Why does water come out everytime I turn the machine on/off? Is it normal?
This is perfectly normal because the machine is set to clean its own pipelines everytime the machine is on/off. Water comes out from the outlet when the cleanse is over.
2What milk and coffee beans do I use in my machine?
We recommend 2 to 6 degrees full cream milk, medium/deep roasted beans instead of light/dark roasted beans.
3Can I switch milk temperature? How do I set it higher/lower?
Yes. The reccomended froth temperature is 60 degrees, but you can adjust by turning the "frother knob". Contact customer service or a sales professional for more details.
4Why is my coffee too bitter/too bland?
The taste of your coffee has to do with the following factors: ground particle size (5 options available), amount of grounds (5 options available) and pre-infusion time (1 to 5 seconds).
5Shall I re-engineer my machine?
If you have special demands, please contact customer service; otherwise it is recommended that you keep the original configurations.

After the machine prepares your coffee, you may add syrup or creamer into the drink.
7Shall I dispose of the first coffee of the day?
If your machine is turned off for a while and on again, we recommend that you make a latte and dispose of it, based on the consideration that the machine is not fully warmed up hence the taste may not be ideal.

The larger the number is, the more grounds you get with each grind.

After changing your beans, please re-calibrate the ground amount.
After changing your milk to one with different fat content, it is recommended that you modify the froth amount in "beverage configuration".
