5.3.- Basic settings.
5.3.1.- Grinding fineness setting.
The grinder is ad usted in the factory to be used with espresso
coffee. It simply needs a bit of fine tuning to adapt it to the
characteristics of the coffee used in your establishment. Grind enough
coffee to fill your filter-holder
with what you consider to be a
normal dose and brew a cup of
coffee with your coffee
machine. If the result is
unsatisfactory, modify the
grinding level as follows:
- Pull the grinding level lock (Pos. 3) up with one hand and turn
the grinding level lever (Pos. 4) with the other. Turn it
clockwise for finer ground coffee and counterclockwise for
coarser coffee.
-Release the lock to set the grinding position.
-Brew more coffee for additional tests, repeating the steps
above until achieving optimal results in the cup.

5.3.2.- offee dosage setting.
The grinder is set at the
factory for a grinding time of 2
seconds for 1 cup of coffee and
3.5 seconds for 2 cups of coffee.
If the dose obtained is not what
you want in your coffee
machine, modify the dose as follows:
- Press the 1 cup button (Pos. B) for 1.5 seconds until d c1

appears on screen. Release the button and the current dose will
appear on screen.
-Press the advance button  (Pos. F) until reaching the desired
value.
-Press the 1 cup button again to confirm the new dose.
-Perform the same operation with the 2 cup button.
5.3.3.- Filter-holder detection system setting.
The grinder has several systems for selecting 1- or 2-cup doses,
which may be programmed by your Technical Assistance Service:
- Key selection, 1 Cup: When the filter-holder is inserted, it
receives the dose for 1 cup of coffee. To obtain a dose for 2
cups of coffee, press the 2c button before inserting the filter-
holder. (Factory programmed setting.)

automaticgrinders
~ 12 ~
- Key selection, 2 Cups: Without pressing any button the filter-
holder receives the dose for 2 cups of coffee. Press the 1c
button before inserting the filter-holder for the single dose.
-Key selection, last service. Without pressing any key the filter-
holder receives the same dose as in the last service.
-Dose selection by pressing filter-holder single or double click:
o Press filter-holder once (single click): One cup of
coffee.
o Press filter-holder, release and press again (double
click): Two cups of coffee.
- Automatic filter-holder identification (Only for the QUIMBOA
CLASS A model). This patented system automatically detects 1-
cup or 2-cup filter-holders.
- For the system to work, a tag or identifier must be fixed to the
2-cup filter-holder: the grinder distinguishes between a filter-
holder with this tag (and provides the dose for two cups of
coffee) and filter-holder without tag (for which it provides the
dose for one cups of coffee), with no need for any action on
the part of the operator. (See Appendix I).
