experience, knowledge and ability to safely and properly use the Kassifa Coffee Machine
should not operate it without supervision.
2. Dispose of plastic packaging materials properly to prevent children or pets from
suffocating due to plastic packaging materials.
Risk of electric shock
3. See Machine outer label display or user manual for electrical specifications. Do not use
voltage other than the rated one.
4. Always perform proper grounding.
5. The cables and plug should not be located near the heat source.
6. Make sure that the main power switch is in the off position before installing and
removing the power plug.
7. Always hold the insulated part of the plug before installing and removing the power plug.
Do not touch the metal part or apply force to the lead side to avoid damage to cables.
8. You must disconnect the plug of the power cord from the wall outlet before moving the
machine, and keep your hands and power cord dry.
9. Do not modify, overly bend, pull, kink, or put heavy objects on the power cord and plug
to avoid breaking or damaging them. If you identify any damage to the power cord and
plug, stop using it, and refer to repair with an authorized technician.
10. Do not expose the Kassifa Coffee Machine and its power cord to rain, nor immerse
them in the water and other types of liquid to avoid fire, electric shock and other injuries.
Notes on water
11. Please use distilled, filtered, or boiled water, as water source. Do not use purified water,
it doesn’t have electrolyte, so we can’t detect the water temperature and movements
12. It is normal to see some drips from the water spout while the Kassifa Coffee Machine is
under idle condition.
13. Each Kassifa Coffee Machine has been functional checked
prior to shipping from the factory. There might be traces of
water remaining in the machine. For the first-time use after
installation or the beginning of daily operation, please press
for 3 seconds the button with the green surrounding light at
the broiler (see the picture A), it will pump the water for 10
minutes to make sure the water flow is steady and clean, and
keeps the flavor of coffee fresh daily.

Risk of burning.
14. Do not touch the hot boiler.
15. Keep children away from the maker and pipes to avoid burning.
Notes on operation
16. The flow meter is a component used to calculate the flow rate based on the volume of
the liquid. The system will calculate the relative weight of the liquid against different
temperatures. Because it is obtained after conversion, the true total water volume may
be slightly different. This is normal.
17. Before the first brewing, make sure the dripper is properly adjusted and it is right under
the water spout. It should be positioned directly above the center of the filter cup.
18. Do not force the movement of the water spout. For example, do not force it to stop
during rotation, or force it to rotate when it stops.
19. Do not turn off power when the Kassifa Coffee Machine operates. Make sure the
pouring head returns to the center point before shutdown. If the water spout is not
located at the center point, refer to the operating procedure indicating how to calibrate
the center point of the pouring head.
20. Follow the instructions described in the User's Manual. Do not press the buttons other
than the common buttons described in the User’s Manual at the same time or press any
other button randomly during the coffee brewing process.
21. In an average use of the Kassifa ( Brewing 100 times everyday) , we suggest doing
maintenance twice a year. You can use electric hot water boiler cleaner such as citric
submit your request, and schedule a maintenance from our team or partners. We will do
a complete check-up and maintenance, such as removing limescale, replacing silicone
pipes, and updating the latest firmware and software, etc.
22. For cleaning the Kassifa Coffee Machine, you can use water or watery detergents such
as Lysol or Clorox in “power-off” and cool down condition

Operating instructions
Description of Control box
Operating procedure
1. Setup
Before actual brewing, enter the Setup Mode to make the brew settings. The following shows how to
enter the Setup Mode:
1. Turn off the machine.
2. Press and hold the Up button (△).
3. Turn on the machine.
4. Enter the Setup Mode. (Release the △button at this time)
The Setup Mode consists of four steps, temperature compensation, heating compensating, weighing /
timing mode switching, and weighing calibration.
1. Temperature compensation
In order to perform the best Pour-over coffee flavor, delivering a designated water temperature in
each water-dripping session is one of the “MUST” requirements. After entering the Setup Mode,
you will enter the first step “Temperature Compensation.” The temperature shown on the LCD
screen is not the one at water spout After the hot water flows out of the boiler, its temperature
may drip before it reaches the pouring head.
The Kassifa Coffee Machine User’s Manual

The temperature loss varies depending on the climate and usage environment. It is about
33.8~35.6 ℉(1~2℃). At this time, you can configure the temperature compensation setting to
compensate for the temperature difference between the pouring head and boiler. Press the
Up/Down button (△▽) to adjust the value ranging between 0~46.4 ℉(0~8℃). The set value
shown is the boiler temperature plus additional temperatures to compensate for the degrades of
water pipes. Because there is a distance between the boiler and the water spout, it will impact the
designated temperature while water flowing in the pipeline.
For keeping water temperature steady, a temperature compensation (adding back the dropping
temperature) is required.
The actual temperature adjustment is based on the installer according to the environment (like
the setting of air-condition, W/ or W/O the stove closed by, any factor could impact the
temperature around the Kassifa coffee machine), usually an increase adjustment of 2~4°F could
be possible. .The actual boiler temperature can be obtained by adding these two temperatures.
After the setting, press the Water / Stop button to proceed with the next step.
2. Temperature setting of lower boiler
The lower boiler is used to preheat the boiler and water at room temperature to supply it to the
brewing boiler to brew coffee after temperature adjustment. It is recommended to be slightly
lower than the brewing temperature.
3. Heating compensation
If you notice the temperature drop inside the boiler without sufficient heating during continuous
brewing (for example, it is 41 ℉(5℃) than the set temperature), you can set the heat
compensation to solve it. For heating compensation, the power of the heater is increased when
water is pumped out of the boiler to heat newly added cold water to the desired temperature.
Press the Up/Down button (△and ▽) to adjust the value ranging between 0~10. The higher it
is, the larger the heating power is. The factory setting is 1. Except for special environments (such
as extremely low water inlet temperature), there is no need to adjust the setting in the normal
condition. After the setting, press the Water / Stop button to proceed with the next step.

2. Brewing setting
1. Temperature setting
In Standby Mode and Brewing Mode, press the Up/Down button (△and ▽) to directly adjust the
value of the temperature inside the boiler. The highest temperature is 208.4 ℉(98℃), while the
lowest is 33.8℉(1℃). The temperature is incremented in 32.9 ℉(0.5℃).
As shown in the figure below, N represents the actual temperature inside the boiler, while S
represents the temperature set by the user.
2. Set brewing parameters
You can configure three sets of parameters in the Control Box and store them in three brewing
buttons (I, II, and III). To change any set of parameters, press and hold one brewing button to
enter the brewing screen. Each set has 12 steps from 0 to 11. Use the Up/Down button (△and
▽) to adjust the parameters. Press the Same Brewing button to enter the next parameter setting.
In the brewing setting, press the Water / Stop button and No Save appears.
You will set up the pouring range for each step before setting up each parameter for 0~10 steps.
When the pouring head of Kassifa operates, it makes four turns outward and make another four
turns inward. The pouring range is available between 1 ~ 4, indicating the number of turns for
pouring water. If it is set to 3, water will be poured between the 1st turn and 3rd turn. No water is
poured during the 4th turn. When making the 4th turn, the pouring head will rotate at the highest
speed. Water is poured again between 1st turn and 3rd turn.
The first stage is the water pouring and blooming. Four parameters are available:
1. Speed: The rotating speed of the pouring head, 0~10. The larger the number is, the higher
the speed is. 0 represents no rotation (stop at the center point).
2. Pour: Pouring volume in grams. If the value is set to 10g of water will be poured.
3. Value: The instantaneous water volume which varies between 1.0 ~ 8.0g every second.
4. Bloom: Bloom time in seconds.
The Kassifa Coffee Machine User’s Manual
11
Between 2 and 10 stages are water pouring and stopping. Four parameters are available:
1. Speed: The rotating speed of the pouring head, 0~10. The larger the number is, the higher
the speed is. 0 represents no rotation (stop at the center point).
2. Pour: Pouring volume in grams, If the value is set to 10g of water will be poured.
3. Value: The instantaneous water volume which varies between 1.0 ~ 8.0g every second.
4. Hold: The water stop time (sec.) before the next stage of water pouring.
During the brewing setup, if you press and hold the Same Brewing button, all values after that
step (not included) will be set to 0 and saved. Then it exits the setting. For example, when the 5th
stage 5-Pour > 0.07 lb (30g) is set and press and hold the Same Brewing button, at this time all
values in Step 6~10 are set to 0 and saved. Then it exits the setting.

3. Brew and stop brewing
Press the Brewing button to perform brewing using the set mode. During brewing, if you want to
stop brewing, press the Water / Stop button and water pouring stops. The pouring head
continues to rotate until it reaches the center point. No operation is available before the pouring
head returns to the center point.
If you do not perform brewing for a long period of time, the temperature at the end of the water
pipes will drop to unsuitable for brewing. At this time, you can press and hold the Water / Stop
button for several second before brewing. Perform brewing after cold water is drained.
4. Calibration of center point of pouring head
During brewing, the pouring head rotates from the center point to the outermost circle and returns
to the center point. One cycle consists of 8 turns. If some special situations occur, such as
abnormal stop during brewing, power outage, or other operating errors, they may cause the
pouring head to stop at a point other than center point. At this time, you have to perform the
“Center Point Calibration of the Pouring Head.” The calibration step is shown below:
1. Press and hold the Water / Stop button.
2. Enter the Mode “Center Point Calibration of the Pouring Head.”
3. Release the Water / Stop button.
4. At this time, press and hold the Water / Stop button once and the pouring head makes
one turn.
5. Repeatedly press the Water / Stop button until the pouring head returns to the center
point.
6. Press and hold the Water / Stop button until the Calibration Mode pops up.
5. Water volume and troubleshooting
If the water level is low in the boiler, the LCD screen will show “E” (ERROR) symbol between
current temperature N and set temperature S and the heater is prohibited to perform heating. In
this case, stop all operations and check if the water supply facility functions properly. If water
supply is normal and this problem persists after water is supplied for some time, contact the
dealer for more detailed inspection.
If the machine does not operate, stops supplying water and heating, and there are other
problems, due to any human, non-human errors, or other non-obvious issues, contact
avoid any accident and void the warranty.
