Long pre-infusion—as long as you want! Control your flow rate—full power for darker roasts or gentle pre-infusion for lighter roasts Extract like a lever-machine—you control how many bars you want Experiment with coarser grinds using immersion techniques Proper/Safe Use (Please read carefully) 1. NEVER install or uninstall while the machine is warm. Let it cool down 100%. And always unplug the electric socket. 2. Set the pump pressure somewhere between 9-10 bars. If it's already set to that amount, you're good to go. 3. Determine the OEM flow rate of your machine BEFORE installing the flow device. How? Before installation, run the water for 10-20 seconds and measure how many milliliters or grams of water come out per second. 4. Installing the manometer. It is very important that you do not touch the face/glass , finger-tighten (using tools could cause irreparable damage) the manometer onto the grouphead. Tighten until you feel resistance, and make sure the front of the manometer is facing horizontal. You don't have to screw the manometer all the way to the end of the thread.
