1,2, 3.…GO: After a very short heating phase, the machine is ready to make your espresso.
Press & GO: The espresso extraction, the steam mode activation and switching the machine on and off, simply at the
touch of a button.
Never lose Control: The display shows the coffee brewing time to the second. The PID temperature control also
allows you to set the desired temperature for coffee extraction and steam. The brewing pressure can be adjusted on
the easily accessible expansion valve. In addition, a reminder can be set to display when to clean it if you wish. The
ECO mode also allows you to program a timer to switch off the boiler when not in use to save energy.

The questions we are asked most often about this machine.
They are the two stages of fast heat-up. If you switch the Go on with the boiler below 40 °C, Fast Heat Up starts and the display shows "UP": it takes about six and a half minutes, a little longer if the room or the water is cold.
When "FLU" appears, leave the portafilter in, put a tall cup underneath and run water until the display shows "rdY/Go": about 20 seconds. If you do not do it within a minute, "FLU" alternates with the temperature and the boiler cools down to brewing temperature on its own. If you start a shot while "UP" is still showing, fast heat-up stops and the group takes a little longer to get hot.
Coffee first, then milk: that is the right order. Press the steam button and let the boiler heat up. Before frothing, open the steam valve for about 5 seconds and repeat twice more 10 seconds apart: this takes some water out of the boiler and gives you more steam. After the milk, the boiler needs refilling.
To go back to coffee, switch the steam off, put a container under the group and run the coffee button until no more steam comes out. Before the next coffee, check on the display that the temperature has dropped enough.
Soft, still drinking water, up to 4 °dH. If yours is harder, use a water softener or the 89445.K filter cartridge, which goes in the tank under the lid.
It depends on how much you use it, but as a rule:
Do not overdo the detergent: even in small amounts, over time it strips the grease from the gaskets and O-rings and dries them out.
The detergent clean is due roughly every 90-140 coffees, and the Go reminds you with CLn on the display. It also asks you to refresh the boiler water every 1-2 weeks.
With this routine and good quality water, the machine does not need descaling.
No. If you use the right water and keep up the routine (a flush after every coffee, a daily backflush with water and one with detergent every 1-2 weeks), descaling is not needed.
If your tap water is hard, use a softener or the filter cartridge. A Go that has already scaled up must be descaled by your specialist dealer only, because the boiler and tubing may need partial disassembly. Preventive descaling should also be agreed with the dealer first: do not do it on your own.
The 220 V version is rated 230 V, 50 Hz: it suits 220-240 V mains, the voltage in most of the world, Europe included. If your mains are 60 Hz or low voltage, write to us before ordering.
Before plugging it in, check the type plate on the front panel and use an earthed socket, with no extension cords or multiple sockets.
