Frequently Asked Questions about On The Go Coffee Makers

Understanding of Bean-to-Cup Machines

Can I use pre-ground coffee in a bean-to-cup machine?

Yes, many bean-to-cup machines have an option for pre-ground coffee. This is useful when you want to use decaf coffee or a specific pre-ground coffee.

What is the difference between a single boiler and a dual boiler machine?

A single boiler machine uses the same boiler for brewing coffee and steaming milk, requiring wait time between the two functions. A dual boiler machine has separate boilers for brewing and steaming, allowing for simultaneous operation and better temperature control.

Making the Perfect Cup

What coffee beans should I use in a bean-to-cup machine?

Use high-quality, freshly roasted coffee beans for the best results. Medium-dark and dark roast beans are a popular choice, but the best beans depend on your taste preferences—experiment with different roasts to find your favourite.

How much coffee should I use in a bean-to-cup machine?

Most machines measure coffee by the number of beans dispensed for each cup. Generally, use around 7-9 grams of coffee per shot of espresso. Machines typically allow you to adjust the coffee strength to suit your taste.

How does grind size affect the taste of coffee?

A finer grind increases extraction, resulting in a stronger, more intense flavour. A coarser grind reduces extraction, leading to a milder taste.

Troubleshooting and Optimisation

Why is my coffee weak or bitter, and how can I fix it?

Weak coffee usually indicates under-extraction; try using a finer grind or increasing the coffee dose. Bitter coffee is often due to over-extraction; adjust by using a coarser grind, reducing the brewing time, or lowering the water temperature.

How can I optimise my coffee settings on a bean-to-cup machine?

Experiment with grind size, coffee strength, water temperature, and extraction time to find the ideal balance for your preferred coffee style. Adjusting these settings can significantly enhance the flavour profile.

How do I troubleshoot common issues like uneven coffee grounds or leaks?

Uneven coffee grounds might indicate the need for cleaning or replacing the grinder burrs, while leaks could be caused by worn-out seals or blockages. Regular maintenance can help prevent these problems. If you need assistance, feel free to contact us. If your machine is out of warranty, we offer a wide range of spare parts to help extend its lifespan.

Maintenance and Cleaning

How do I clean a bean-to-cup coffee machine?

Regular cleaning is essential. Empty the drip tray and used grounds daily, rinse the milk system after each use, and descale the machine according to the manufacturer's instructions, usually every 1-3 months, depending on usage and water hardness.

Aside from daily cleaning, perform regular deep cleaning, including descaling, cleaning the brew group, and flushing the milk system. Following the manufacturer’s maintenance schedule is key to extending the machine's life.
