Coffee is a natural product and its characteristics may change according to its origin, blend and roast. The Saeco coffee machine is equipped with a self-adjusting system that allows the use of all types of coffee beans available on the market (non caramelized). The machine automatically adjusts itself in order to optimise the extraction of the coffee, ensuring perfect compression of the tablet to obtain a creamy espresso coffee that will release all the aromas, regardless of the type of coffee used. The optimisation process is a learning process that requires the brewing of a certain number of coffees to allow the machine to adjust the compactness of the ground coffee. Attention should be given to special blends, which require grinder adjustments in order to optimise the extraction of the coffee (see section "Coffee Grinder Adjustment").
