1. S1 Dream Graphical User Interface Addendum Scope
The LaSpaziale Dream Owner’s Manual is more of an extended “Quick Start” Guide. It does not cover
the extensive Menu system in much detail. It is the goal of this addendum to document the complete
Graphical User Interface (GUI) system in detail with photos and text in order to help the user gain the
best possible espresso experience with this new machine.
Since each version of firmware can have significant impacts on the User Interface, this document
solely covers the operation of the Dream Espresso Machine with firmware version 1.19 installed. Any
current Dream user whose machine is on an earlier version is strongly encouraged to update to this
version. How to do that is covered later in this document. When future firmware versions are released
this document will need to be amended or replaced depending on how extensive the changes are.
Most of the settings documented below are completely safe. You can set them to any allowed
value and, while you may not like the result, the settings should cause no harm to you, others,
or the machine. These settings are denoted with this symbol: In the cases where an
improper setting could result in dangerous operation, this symbol is used: If these cautions
are ignored, you do so at your own risk. This document is to help you to better understand
how this espresso machine works. You are ultimately responsible for its safe operation and
for the safety of all those nearby. The Dream does have a variety of over pressure relief
systems, which when working as designed, should prevent boiler ruptures and/or explosions.
However, when they do so they are still capable of releasing high pressure, superheated
steam.
2 Dream Front Panel Description
Below is a labelled photo of the Dream’s front panel. Screenshots of the LCD display will be shown
and described throughout this document. Refer to this photo, as required, when pressing of various
buttons is referenced.

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 4
3 The Dream’s Machine Off and Turning On Screens
When the machine is Off and the Programmable
On/Off Timer is Disabled, you just see a blank, unlit
screen
When the machine is OFF and the Programmable
On/Off Timer is Enabled and On/Off times have been
set, the screen shows the next ON time.
When the machine is Off, you press and hold the
Power button until you see this screen for several
seconds, then you will see the Home Screen as
depicted in paragraph 3.
4 Steam Boiler Water Level Sensor Threshold Settings
If this is improperly set and you have very soft water, you could get a hot water overflow out of the
steam boiler.
The water level sensor on the first production run of Dreams was connected to the control board with
the leads reversed. This caused the signal to control board to be slightly off from what was expected
by the software resulting in overfilling the steam boiler. Rather than recall the first batch of machines
to swap the sensor leads, LaSpaziale put in a software work around. It is now possible to select one
of two thresholds depending on whether you have one of those original machines or a later machine.
These are referred to as Threshold A and Threshold B where Threshold A is what the setting is
supposed to be and Threshold B was added as the fix for the first batch of machines. Your machine
should already be set to the correct value which is Threshold B for the following ranges of serial
numbers and Threshold A for anything else:
Dream machine serial # 259451-259547
Dream T machine serial # 259487-259496

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 5
In order to confirm whether your machine is correct after checking your serial number as noted below
in paragraph 5, check the Threshold setting as noted below.
Start with the machine OFF and then press and hold the
Menu button. The screen will indicate the currently set
value. If it is correct you can press Menu to relock that
value and exit back to the OFF state.
Note the serial number of this machine is 259535 so it is
correctly set as Threshold B.
If you need to change to the other threshold value use
the Up or Down Arrow keys to display it and then press
the Menu button to return to the OFF state.
In addition to being able to use the arrow keys to display
Threshold A or Threshold B you can also scroll until
BACK is displayed, pressing Menu with BACK display
returned the machine to the OFF state without changing
the original threshold value.
5 The Home Screen
The Home Screen is what you normally see when you are not accessing the Menu System. The
Owner’s Manual contains a single photo of this screen. However, the same physical screen space is
used to display different things at different times making it impossible to capture everything with a
single photo. This section includes additional photos so that the reader can see these additional
items. Most of the values shown on the home screen are configurable through a multiplicity of menu
screens documented later.
Some of the values shown on the home screen (and other menu screens) depend on the Language
set in the Menu system:
American English –Time AM/PM, Date MM/DD/YY, Temp = Fahrenheit, Liquid = Gallons
British English –Time AM/PM, Date DD/MM/YY, Temp = Celsius, Liquid = Liters
Italian –Time 24 Hr, Date DD/MM/YY, Temp = Celsius, Liquid = Liters

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 6
The “E” in the upper left corner stands for Economy mode; i.e. 15A mode. If
you have the Dream plugged into a 15A outlet this needs to be showing.
The Menu to set this is covered later and is referred to as Full Power - ON
(20A) or OFF (15A).
S1Cafe is the name of one of the four User Selectable profiles that will be
covered later. The Temperature under the User Profile Name is the current
group boiler temperature.
The machine can be set to use and display Celsius rather than Fahrenheit if
British English rather than American English is selected as the Language.
The tea cup looking icon near the lower right indicates that the steam/hot
water boiler is ON. When this icon is showing the area below the icon scrolls
back and forth between “TBOILER” and the steam boiler temperature. This
is programmable so that you can achieve your desired steam pressure
shown on the pressure gauge on the front panel. The original S1 modes had
this preset to 1.2-1.3 bars. However, you can easily pick a temp that makes
the pressure lower or higher than this to control the quality and quantity of
your steam
3.1 bar is the group pressure which equals the incoming street pressure
when the pump is not running during an espresso shot. Tank models do
not support this feature. Their espresso shot pressure shows on the
mechanical pressure meter.
This display shows what the screen looks like during a shot. The two cup
icon on the left indicates that the 2 cup button was pushed. Alternately, the
one cup icon would display. The bar shows the shot time relative to the total
programmed shot time and the “6s” indicates that we are 6 seconds into the
shot. The final time value at the end of the shot remains for 10 seconds or
until the next shot is started, whichever comes first.
Note that the normal water drop icon between the time and the group
pressure changes from the water pressure OK to the pump on icon during a
shot.
In this screenshot, note that the machine has now been set to Full Power
ON (20A mode) and the “E” icon is no longer displayed in the upper left
corner.
Also, the squiggle line under the group temperature indicates that the group
boiler is on. When the steam boiler is on, its blue indicator lamp to the left of
the Home screen panel blinks; i.e. there is no indication on this screen.
In the lower left corner ,the display alternates between the current time and
the next programmed Off time if this feature has been enabled. When the
machine is Off, the next programmed ON time alternates with the clock.

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 7
Note that the word OFF in the lower left corner of the display is followed by
+1 in this photo. This means that the time listed below OFF+1 is for
tomorrow. If the display only showed OFF the time below would be for
today. (This is the same as OFF+0!) OFF+2 indicates the day after
tomorrow and so on. There are two ways to interpret this timer status display
which require that the user know how the machine was last turned on.
1. Dream is currently in a programmed ON cycle. In this case the time
displayed is the next programmed OFF time
2) Dream is currently in a programmed OFF cycle but was manually turned
on. In this case the time displayed is the next programmed ON time. In both
cases the number after OFF indicates which day the time is referring to.
If the programmable timer is disabled, the lower left corner will just display
the current time of day.
If the programmable timer is enabled but no times are programmed the timer
status will be displayed but the values are meaningless. Therefore, the
timer should also be set to disabled if all the times are deleted.
This photo shows a thermometer like icon the upper right corner
which indicates that the steam boiler is refilling. (Perhaps this icon is
actually supposed to be a vertical boiler!) The pump icon between
the group pressure and the time is also on as it is when pulling a
shot. This is how you can tell the difference between the pump being
on for a shot and the pump engaging to refill the steam boiler.
For about one minute after an alarm occurs you will see a
large description of the alarm on screen.
After an alarm has been active for one minute the descriptive text
goes away and is replaced by the alarm icon in the middle of the
screen. If you weren’t looking at the screen when the above
message was displayed and you only see the icon in this photo, you
can go to a screen (see paragraph 6.2) and redisplay the text for this
alarm as well as for any other alarms that are currently active.
6 Quick Access to Information and Profile Selection Screens
6.1 SerialNumberandFirmwareVersionInformation

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 8
With the Home Screen showing, press and hold the Blue
Up Arrow button to the right of the display panel until the
screen below is shown. You will see the serial number on
the top line. This should agree with the serial number
label on your machine but it is easier to access this way.
Below that is the firmware version number. As of January
2014 the latest version is 1.19. If you are on an earlier
version, how to obtain and install the latest version is
covered later.
6.2 MultipleScreensofAdditionalStatusInformation
With the Serial Number and Firmware Version screen showing, press the Blue Down Arrow key to the
Right of the Display panel. You can navigate back and forth through these screens using the Blue Up
and Down Arrow Keys. When done, press the Blue Menu button to return to the Home screen.
It takes at least two and sometimes 3 status screens to view your
available information depending on which features are enabled.
Status of disabled features is not displayed. This screen shows that
the next Timer Off time is at 6:30PM. These lines automatically scroll
back and forth to show the entire line of text. The Group Boiler offset
is +1F and Preinfusion is set to 4 sec. This preinfusion time applies
when either the one cup or two cup buttons are pressed. They aren’t
independently programmable. Press down arrow for the next screen.
This screen shows the number of gallons left before the filter alarm occurs.
(It is set for 250 gallons and 1 gallon has been used since it was last reset.)
The Time Update American setting applies to when Daylight Savings Time
is changed. The Backlight LED is set to 60 minutes This means that the
backlight on the GUI display remains lit for an hour after the last button
press. There is a separate setting that determines when the LED lights
illuminate the area under the Group. The status of that setting is not shown
on these screens.
On this machine the “GRINDING” option is disabled. This is an example of
another setting that would be displayed if it were enabled. More on that later.
Explanation above. Compare this screen with the previous one to
see how the data scrolls left to right.
Press the down arrow for the next screen. Up arrow for the previous
screen.

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 9
If there were active alarms, i.e. ongoing, unresolved error conditions a text
explanation of each one –if more than one –displays here. Later in the
menu documentation section you will see how to scroll through a history of
all alarms that have occurred on this machine.
The symbol at the bottom of the screen indicates there are no more screens
below this one. Note the similar icon on the serial number screen in
paragraph 3.1 which indicates there are no more screens above that one.
Press the Blue Menu button to return to the Home screen.
If you have a triangular alarm icon in the middle of the Home Screen
and you navigate to this page, you will see the text of the alarm. If
there are more than one active alarm you can use the Up and Down
Arrows to scroll back and forth through the active alarm list.
There is no manual way to clear alarms. They automatically clear
when the alarm condition is corrected. Later in the document you will
see how to get a chronological history list of all alarms.
6.3 DownArrowProfileSelection
With the Home Screen displayed, press and hold the Blue Down
Arrow until the Profile Menu is displayed as shown at left. Then you
can use the up and down arrows to select a different profile, if you
have more than one configured. With the desired Profile highlighted
press the Menu button to select it, the display then jumps back to the
Home Screen.
This saves you from having to navigate through the Menu system in
order to select a different active profile.
7 Menu System Documentation
Unless otherwise specified you will use only the Blue Up Arrow or the Blue Down Arrow to
navigate to the desired menu item. The Blue Menu button will select the currently highlighted menu
item. Some combination of these three keys is also used within each menu selection to pick values,
to navigate, and/or to select values. When you are navigating to a main menu item, each press of the
down arrow will advance you to the next menu item and that item’s icon will enlarge in size to
highlight that fact. If you need to navigate to a menu item that is some distance from the currently
selected menu item, press and hold the down arrow and you will advance quickly through the menu
items. If you pass the menu item you wish, press the Up Arrow to reverse navigation direction. In the
case you can also hold down the Up Arrow key to move quickly up the menu list. Within a few of the
menus there is a lengthy list of numbers or characters to choose from. Pressing and holding the
arrow keys will help you scroll quickly to the desired value.
You can also scroll through the list by placing your finger between the Up and Down Arrow keys and
then swipe up toward the Up Arrow button or down toward the Down Arrow button. Thus you have
three different ways to navigate through the menus. Just pick the one that best suits you.

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 10
Note: There are a few quirks in the menu system that will be pointed out when we get to each
one. This document will just navigate from one menu to the next in sequence until all have
been covered. In actual use the operator can scroll directly to whichever menu item is of
interest.
Starting from the Home Screen, press and hold the Blue Menu button until the screen below
appears. This is screen #1 of the menu system.
Password Caveat:
If you have previously set and enabled password protection, this password
entry screen appears first. Once you have successfully entered your
password, you are shown the next screen and you can access all the other
menu screens and settings. Only after you exit and then enter the menu
system the next time are you asked again for your password.
Use the Up and Down Arrows to select each number followed by the Menu
button to enter that number and advance to the next character position
If you forget the password then, when prompted to enter the
password, press and hold the Menu button for 5 seconds. The
password will be changed back to default (1234) and disabled.
WRONG
PASSWORD
If you enter an incorrect Password, the screen displays
the message WRONG PASSWORD for a few seconds
and then bounces you back to the Home screen. You
must then press and hold the MENU button to display the
Password screen and try again.
Note that the Home row at the top of the screen is reverse videoed
indicating that it is selected rather than any of the icons below. If you press
the Menu Button now you return to the Home screen. This is the main
way to return to the Home screen. Wherever you are in the Menu system,
press the Up arrow until the screen looks just like this one and then press
the Menu button. There is one alternative way to return to the Home
screen from most submenus, just do nothing for about 2 minutes and the
Home screen is displayed. Of course, if you have made changes in any of
the sub-menus and gotten sidetracked before pressing the Menu button to
save your changes, you will return to the Home Screen without the changes
being made.
7.1 SetCalendar
The second screen below shows calendar settings in the form MM/DD/YY. This is because the
machine is set to American English. If it is set to either of the other options –British English or Italian
–the order is DD/MM/YY. Paragraph 5.4 shows how to set the desired Language.

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 11
Press the down arrow once to highlight the Calendar
icon. Note the calendar icon change. The top display
line also changes to “Calendar” as a further indication.
Press the Menu button once to enter the Calendar set
function.
Initially, the month is highlighted. Use the Up and Down arrows to select the
desired month. Then press the Menu button to lock in this value and move
to the day field. Once again use the arrow keys to select the desired value
and lock it in with the Menu button. Then repeat again for the Year field.
When the Menu button is pressed after setting the Year, Menu screen as
shown in paragraph 5 is redisplayed.
Note that even though the day of the week is displayed on this screen, it is
calculated based on the date entered and is not user settable. Also, if the
currently highlighted date field is already correct, just press the Menu button
to skip to the next field.
7.2 SetTimeofDay
Wherever you currently are in the menu system be sure
you are seeing Menu screen #1. Use the Arrow keys to
get there and then highlight the Time icon. The top title
line also display the word “Time”. Next press the Menu
button in order to enter the Time set function.
If your language is set for American or British English the display
will be as shown. Use the Up or Down arrow to cycle through the
hours being sure to pay attention that the am/pm indicator is
correct. Then press the Menu key to lock in the Hours and also
highlights the Minutes field. Again use the arrow keys to select the
desired time and then press Menu to lock in the value and move
back to the Main Menu screen. If you have selected Italian as your
language this screen will display 24 hour time and there will be no
AM/PM indicator.

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 12
7.3 EnableDisableButtonBeep
Wherever you currently are in the menu system be sure
you are seeing Menu screen #1. Use the Arrow keys to
get there and then highlight the Beep icon, then press
the Menu button.
Use the Up/Down Arrows to select Beep ON or Beep
OFF, then press the Menu button to lock in the value
and return to the main menu screen.
You have probably noted that, by default, each time
you press a button the machine Beeps, this is where
you can turn that off if you desire to rig for silent
running.
7.4 SelectLanguage
Wherever you currently are in the menu system be
sure you are seeing Menu screen #1. Use the Arrow
keys to get there and then highlight the Language
icon which looks like a flag. Then press the Menu
button.
Rather than showing the three options on a single
screen, the options for British English (B.English),
American English (A. English), or Italian are shown
one to a screen. The one you will initially see when
you enter these screens is the option currently
selected.
Internally these three screens are ordered as:
B. English, A. English, and Italian. Based on the one you see
when you initially enter these screens, you may have to use the
Up Arrow or the Down Arrow to get to the option you want.
Once you press the Menu button, the displayed option is locked
in and you return to the Main Menu screen #1.

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 13
These are they system impacts of your choice:
American English –Time AM/PM, Date MM/DD/YY,
Temp = Fahrenheit, Liquid = Gallons
British English –Time AM/PM, Date DD/MM/YY,
Temp = Celsius, Liquid = Liters
Italian –Time 24 Hr, Date DD/MM/YY, Temp =
Celsius, Liquid = Liters
7.5 SetBacklightLCDTime-Out
Wherever you currently are in the menu system be
sure you are seeing Menu screen #1. Use the Arrow
keys to get there and then highlight the Backlight
LCD Time-out icon which looks like a flashlight bulb.
Then press the Menu button to get into the backlight
set up screen.
This setting adjusts the amount of time the display
stays backlit after that last front panel button press.
The maximum is 60min which is shown on the
display. The options are 5, 10, 30, or 60 minutes.
Use the Up and Down Arrows to select your desired
option, then press the Menu button to lock in the
value and return to Menu screen #1.
7.6 SetProgrammableOn/OffTimers
Wherever you currently are in the menu system be
sure you are seeing Menu screen #1. Use the Arrow
keys to get there and to then highlight the Black
Timer icon and press the Menu button.
If you do not want the Programmable On/Off Timer function to
be active, use the arrow key to move the dot to the Off position,
then press the Menu button to return to main Menu screen #1.
However, if you want to use and/or program the On/Off timers
move the dot next to On and press the Menu button.
Note that if you have already set up programmable On/Off
times and change this setting to Off, the programmed values
are not lost and will become active again when this switch is

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 14
later turned back On.
If you are starting a new programming session Monday is where you
want to start. However, if you want to change a day other than
Monday, you can press the Up Arrow to scroll through the days of the
week. When you get to the desired day, press the Menu button to start
programming for that day. If you get to this screen inadvertently, keep
pressing the Up Arrow button. The option after Sunday is “Back”.
Pressing the Menu button with Back selected takes you to the main
Menu screen #1
For this exercise we will press the Menu button with Monday selected.
You can set from 1-3 different ON/OFF times per day. Note the
encircled 1 above am, this indicates you are on the 1st time
setting screen for Monday. Using this screen is just like setting
the Time. Scroll to select the On Hour, press the Menu button
to move to the On minutes, scroll to select minutes, press the
Menu button to select Off Hour, scroll to select the desired
hour, press Menu again to select Off minutes, then press the
Menu button again. Then you are moved to the next screen.
This is the Monday ON/Off time #2 screen. The dashes indicate
that the 2nd ON/Off time for Monday is not currently in use. If
you want to leave it this way press only the Menu button 4x to
leave all values alone. Since you did not enter anything on this
screen you are not taken to the Monday #3 screen. However, if
you did enter any times on this screen you are taken to the 3rd
screen which looks just like this one but a circled 3 above pm.
Note that if you do have times previously programmed for the
2nd (or 3rd times for Monday or any other day) and you now
want to remove them, there is no direct way to select dashes
for these fields. What you do is set both the On and Off times
the same as the Off time on the previous screen (6:30pm in this
example). When you press Menu after entering the Off minutes,
the times are erased. If you then navigate back to this screen
you will see that it shows all dashes where times used to be,
Starting from Monday,after the last Menu button press, you are
presented with this screen. Pressing the Menu button with Copy
highlighted will copy all the Monday settings to the other six days of
the week. The only other option is to press the Down Arrow followed
by the Menu key and go into Tuesday programming mode. Tuesday as
well as any other days are programmed just the same as Monday, the
currently active day of the week shows in the top bar. If you don’t
really want to change Tuesday, just press the Menu button until you
get to another screen similar to this that only displays “ Wednesday”
with no Copy option. On that screen you can use the arrow keys to
skip Wednesday and select any other day of the week. The Monday to
Tuesday transition is the different one due to the Copy option that is
only available here. REMINDER: THE COPY OPTION IS ONLY
AVAILABLE ON THE MONDAY TO TUESDAY TRANSITION.

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 15
If the Copy option was selected on the last screen “Copying”
will blink several times and then you are back on main Menu
screen #1.
Hint: If you have some days that are programmed the same
and others that are different, use the above technique starting
with Monday to make all days the same and then manually
change the days that are different.
7.7 Show/ResetShotCounters
Wherever you currently are in the menu system be
sure you are seeing Menu screen #1. Use the Arrow
keys to get there and then highlight the Counters
icon. Then press the Menu button.
With the word COUNTERS in reverse video, as shown, you can view the
current counter, then press the Menu button to return to the main menu without
Resetting the counters. To Reset the counters, press the Down Arrow key in
order to reverse video (highlight) the word RESET, then press the Menu button.
The screen will then flash RESETTING several times before returning to the
Main screen. If you return to this Counters display again you will see that the
par line values are all zeroed out. The tot line is never cleared. The value
under the Cup icon in the par line shows the number of times the one cup and
two cup buttons have been pressed since the last time the Counters were reset.
The tot line shows the total times the one and two cup buttons have been
pressed since the machine was born. The values under the tea cup icon
represent the similar values for presses of the hot water button. The MAT
values are always zero at this time since that function is not yet implemented.
How this feature is used and interpreted is up to the user. For example it could
be used to count shots to know when to backflush.
7.8 Program(Set/ModifyProfiles)
The Dream allows the user to configure up to four profiles. The example below shows you what the
profile system looks like on first use when the only profile is the default “New User” Profile. The
examples below show accessing the New User profile, making changes to it, and then saving it as a
new name. The name saved at the end of this example is then displayed at the top of the Home
Screen.

S1 Dream Espresso Machine –GUI Addendum
Dream GUI Addendum Page 16
Wherever you currently are in the menu system, be sure you
are seeing Menu screen #1. Use the Arrow keys to get there
and then highlight the Program icon. Next press the Menu
button to start the profile programming mode.
You will see this screen with “New User”highlighted. To start
programming this profile, press the Menu button.
Note that if you have previously programmed one profile the name of
that profile will appear here. You then use the arrow keys to scroll until
you are on the screen that displays the “NEW USER”option and then
you press the Menu button to enter that profile. This can be repeated
until there are four named profiles. At that point you can just pick any
one of them to modify or you can delete one or more. How this is done
is shown later.
The first profile can never be deleted. It can only be modified. One
might think any profile could deleted except one since at least one
profile is required for proper machine operation. However, the Dream
is not designed that way. Profile #1 must remain in place at all times.
If you have inadvertently entered the Profile PROGRAM
menu, press the arrow keys until BACK is displayed and
then you will return to main Menu screen #1.
When you have completed setting up the profile you will
exit back to this main programming screen, scroll until
BACK is display, then press Menu to return to the main
Menu screen #1
Unfortunately, this picture was retroactively taken
after completing the profile and shows the name the
profile was given at the end of the process. For the
purposes of this example, it would actually display
“NEW USER”
Next we will work sequentially through the seven
profile icons on this screen.
7.9 ProfileSub-menus
The sub-menus described in this section are all under the currently selected profile. As each setting is
completed and locked in with the Menu button, it will become a saved part of this profile. Note that if
you walk off in the middle of setting a Profile, after a couple minutes the display reverts to the Main
screen. All profile settings that you have completed will be saved. The remaining items maintain their
default values. If you do not explicitly enter a new profile name, the machine will self-name the
profiles as USER1, USER2, USER3, or USER4 depending on which profile you were working on.
You can navigate back to where you left off and complete the profile at any later time.

7.9.1 SetCoffeeWaterTemperature
See also the Offset setting which is one of the last menu settings described later in this
document. Since Offset works in conjunction with this setting, you could have the coffee
temperature below boiling but have the offset incorrectly set to a positive value that causes
the water temperature to be too high.
Starting from the last menu in the previous section,
press the Down arrow to highlight the Coffee
Temperature icon and display COFFEE TEMPERAT
on the top of the screen. Then press the Menu button
to enter the Coffee temperature (group boiler)
programming screen.
Use the up or down arrows to increase or decrease the indicated
temperature until the desired espresso temperature is showing.
Then press the Menu button to lock in this value and return to the main
Profile menu.
If B.English or Italian are selected as the language this value is show in
Celsius.
Range: 185-257F or 85C-125C
In spite of upper range please keep actual value below boiling.
Not that the higher you altitude the lower the boiling point of water.
7.9.2 SetSteam Boiler Temperature/Pressure
Depending on where you are in the profile menus,
press the Up or Down arrow to highlight the Boiler
Temperature icon and display BOILER TEMPEARAT
on the top of the screen. Then press the Menu button
to enter the boiler temperature (steam boiler)
programming screen.
Use the up or down arrows to increase or decrease the indicated
temperature until the desired steam temperature is showing. Note that
unlike the coffee temperature, you are aiming for a temperature here that
produces the desired steam boiler pressure as indicated by the
manometer on the front panel behind the group.
The normal usage range is 1.0-1.5 bar. The 254F value shown
produces about 1.3bar which is what the earlier generations of S1 are
permanently set to. The range of available values is 239-262F or 115-
123C. The lower values prevents you from select too weak a steam
value and the upper value prevents boiler overpressure.
Then press the Menu button to lock in this value and return to the main
Profile menu.

If B.English or Italian are selected as the language this value is show in
Celsius.
7.9.3 SetCoffee Doses (Water Volume)
Depending on where you are in the profile menus,
press the Up or Down arrow to highlight the Coffee
Doses icon and display that text on the top of the
screen. Then press the Menu button to enter the
coffee doses (water volume) programming screen.
You set both the single cup and double cup buttons from this screen. Fill
and pack a portafilter as usual and place a graduated shot glass under
the spout(s). Press whichever of the two cup buttons you which to
program. When the desired amount is dispensed, press the same button
again. While on this screen you can program either or both buttons as
many times as you like. Only the final values when you exit this screen
are saved.
After you have programmed a button, the display shows you how many
seconds the machine ran and how many turns of the impeller blades
occurred inside the volumetric dosimeter. When you press either cup
button during a shot, the shot will run until the same number of impeller
turns has occurred.
The shot time is only used if the GRINDING function is enabled. See the
description of that function later in this document.
7.9.4 Set Hot Water Options / Volume
Depending on where you are in the profile menus,
press the Up or Down arrow to highlight the HOT
WATER icon and display that text on the top of the
screen. Then press the Menu button to enter the hot
water (hot water volume) programming screen.
This screen will display the current setting. Use the up
or down arrows to select the MANUAL or AUTOMATIC
setting, then press the Menu button. If you selected
Manual, you go back to the main profile menu. Manual
means that you press the Hot Water button to turn it
on and press it again to turn it off; i.e. manual
operation.
If you select Automatic, then you see the next menu.

The Dream provides automatic timed flow as an option for the hot water
spigot. The displayed value shows the current number of seconds that
the hot water is programmed to run. Put a measuring cup under the hot
water spigot, then press the hot water button, press it again when the
desired amount has been dispensed. The display counts up as the water
is flowing and shows the number of seconds at the time you shut off the
water. You can reprogram the water volume as many times as you like.
Only the final value when you press the Menu button is saved
Warning: Depending on your machine and how it is plumbed, the
Dream might pump water out of the boiler faster than cold water can flow
in to replace it. If the heating element is not constantly immersed it might
be damaged. Therefore, it is recommended to limit the amount of water
drawn to 8oz at a time.
Due to the smaller boiler size on the Tank versions those
models should limit the water drawn at one time to 4-6oz.
7.9.5 SetPreinfusion–Plumbed Models Only
This programmable preinfusion mode is not available on the Dream Tank but there is a non-
programmable mechanical option for that model.
Depending on where you are in the profile menus,
press the Up or Down arrow to highlight the
Preinfusion icon and display that text on the top of the
screen. Then press the Menu button to enter the
programmable preinfusion programming screen.
Use the Up or Down arrow to select whether
preinfusion is on ON or OFF, then press the Menu
button. If OFF was selected you immediately return to
the main Profile menu and you have no preinfusion on
either the One Cup or the Two Cup button.
If ON is selected you are shown the next screen.
On this screen you select the number of seconds you desire for
preinfusion. The value selected here indicates the number of seconds
during the shot that the water is turned on running into the PF at street
pressure before the pump is turned on. The amount of water
programmed when you set the coffee doses is not impacted by the value
used here since the total shot volume is measure by impeller turns any
time the water is flowing.
Use the Up or Down arrows to select the desired number of seconds for
preinfusion, then press the Menu key to return to the main Profile menu.
The value range is 1-10 seconds.
