Do not let the power cord touch hot surfaces or become knotted. • Do not leave the appliance unattended when in use. • If the appliance is to be: - left unattended - cleaned - moved - assembled; or - stored Always switch off the espresso machine by pressing the POWER button to OFF. Switch off and unplug from the power outlet.
• Never use the appliance without water in the water tank. • Ensure the portafilter is firmly inserted and secured into the brewing head before using the machine. • Never remove the portafilter during the brewing operation as the machine is under pressure. • Do not place anything, other than cups for warming, on top of the appliance. • Use caution when operating machine as metal surfaces are liable to get hot during use. • Do not touch hot surfaces.

EN Assembly BEFORE FIRST USE NOTE Machine Preparation For replacement water filters, visit the Sage webpage or contact Sage Customer Service. Remove and discard all labels and packaging materials attached to your espresso machine. Ensure you have removed all parts and accessories before discarding the packaging. Remove the packaging and the plastics bags containing the water filter and water filter holder. FILLING THE WATER TANK • Ensure the water filter is securely fitted inside the water tank.
Assembly ATTACHING THE HOPPER Insert the bean hopper into position on top of the machine. FIRST USE CYCLE A first use cycle must be completed before the initial use of the machine. The first use cycle rinses the machine and primes the heating system. 1. Fill the water tank. 2. Ensure machine is fully assembled with the bean hopper, drip tray and water tank securely attached to the machine. 3. Press the POWER button. The machine will beep and go into FIRST CYCLE mode. 4.
EN Functions TURNING OFF THE MACHINE To turn the machine off, press the POWER button. Alternatively, the machine has auto-off, if it is not used for 30 minutes. FILTER BASKETS This machine includes 4 filter baskets; 2 x Single Wall and 2 x Dual Wall. Single Wall filter baskets should be used when grinding fresh whole coffee beans. They allow you to experiment with grind, dose and tamp to create a more balanced espresso.
THE GRIND When grinding coffee beans, the grind size should be fine, but not too fine. The grind size will affect the rate at which water flows through the ground coffee in the filter basket and the taste of the espresso. If the grind is too fine (looks like powder and feels like flour when rubbed between the fingers), the water will not flow through the coffee, even when under pressure. The resulting espresso will be OVER EXTRACTED, dark in colour and bitter in flavour.
EN TAMPING THE GROUND COFFEE • Remove the portafilter from the grinding cradle. • Tap the portafilter several timers to collapse and distribute the coffee evenly in the filter basket. • Using the tamper, tamp down firmly (approx. 15-20kg of pressure). The amount of pressure is not as important as the consistent pressure every time. • Wipe excess coffee from the rim of the filter basket to ensure a proper seal is achieved in the group head.
EXTRACTING ESPRESSO • As a guide the espresso will start to flow after 8–10 seconds (infusion time) and should be the consistency of dripping honey. • If the espresso starts to flow after less than 6 seconds, you have either under dosed the filter basket and /or the grind is too coarse. This is an UNDER EXTRACTED shot. • If the espresso starts to drip but doesn’t flow after 15 seconds, the grind is too fine. This is an OVER EXTRACTED shot.
EN PRE-PROGRAMMED SHOT VOLUME – 1 CUP PROGRAMMING ESPRESSO SHOT • Press the 1 CUP button once, the button will flash, indicating that it has been selected. The LCD will display PRE-INFUSE and the shot clock will start counting up. Once pre-infusion is complete, the shot will start extracting. A pre-set single espresso volume of approx. 30ml will be extracted. The machine will automatically stop once the pre-set volume has been extracted.
USING HOT WATER OUTLET The hot water function can be used to pre-heat cups or to add hot water manually. To activate the hot water, turn the STEAM dial to . FASTER POUR GRIND SIZE SLOWER POUR PAUSED GRIND LOCK PRE-INFUSE SHOT HOPPER HOT WATER SHOT TEMP HOTTER DOUBLE SINGLE AMOUNT FLUSH IN DESCALE PROGRESS FILL RESET DEFAULTS TANK SEC CUSTOM COOLER STEAM MANUALCUSTOM • The LCD will show that HOT WATER has been activated.
EN ADJUSTING CONICAL BURRS Some types of coffee may require a wider grind range to achieve an ideal extraction or brew. A feature of your Barista Pro™ is the ability to extend this range with an adjustable upper burr. We recommend making only one adjustment at a time.
Care & Cleaning IN 1 OUT INSTALLING THE WATER FILTER 2 3 4 5 6 7 5m 1. Remove the water filter and water filter holder from the packaging. Set the reminder for the next month of replacement. We recommend to replace the filter after 3 months. 2. Soak the filter in cold water for 5 minutes. 3. Wash the filter holder with cold water. 4. Insert the filter into the two parts of the filter holder. Ensure they are connected. 5. Remove the water tank from the machine.
EN DESCALING After regular use, hard water can cause mineral build up in and on many of the inner functioning components, reducing the brewing flow, brewing temperature, power of the machine, and the taste of the espresso. The LCD will display a DESCALE alert, when a descaling cycle is required. 1. Empty the drip tray and reattach to the machine. Remove the water tank from the machine and remove the filter from the water tank. 7. Press the 1 CUP button to commence the rinse cycle.
CLEANING THE CONICAL BURR GRINDER This grinder cleaning cycle removes oil build-up on the burrs which can impede performance.
EN CLEANING THE STEAM WAND • The steam wand should always be cleaned after texturing milk. Wipe the steam wand with a damp cloth. • After use, it is recommended to purge the steam wand for a couple of seconds, to clear any remaining milk. With the steam wand positioned down over the drip tray, turn the STEAM dial to for a couple of seconds allow the machine to create steam for a couple of seconds before turning it back to the vertical position.
Troubleshooting PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO Water does not flow from the group head. • Water tank is empty. • Fill tank. • Water tank is not fully inserted and locked into position. • Push water tank down completely to lock into place. • Machine needs to be descaled. • Perform descale cycle. • Coffee is ground too finely and/or too much coffee in filter basket and/or over tamping and/or filter basket is blocked. • See below, ‘Espresso only drips from the portafilter spouts or not at all’.
EN PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO Espresso runs out too quickly. • Coffee is ground too coarsely. • Use slightly finer grind. Refer to ‘Setting the Grind Size’, page 12 and ‘Under Extraction’, page 14. • Not enough coffee in the filter basket. • Increase dose of coffee. Refer to ‘Dosing’, page 12 and ‘Under Extraction’, page 14. Tamp then use the Razor™ dose trimming tool to trim off excess coffee. • Coffee tamped too lightly. • Tamp between or 15–20kg of pressure.
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO Coffee not hot enough. • Cups not pre-heated. • Rinse cups under hot water outlet. • Portafilter not pre-heated. • Rinse portafilter under hot water outlet. Dry thoroughly. • Milk not hot enough (if making a cappuccino or latté etc). • Texture milk for a longer period of time. • Water temperature needs to be adjusted. • Increase the brew temperature refer to 'Adjusting Shot Temperature' page 15. • Coffee tamped too lightly.
EN PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO Machine is on but ceases to operate. • The safety thermal-cut out may have activated due to the pump or grinder overheating. • Press the POWER button to switch the machine off and unplug from the power outlet. Allow to cool for about 30–60 minutes. • If problem persists, call Sage Support. • No coffee beans in hopper. • Filler hopper with fresh coffee beans. • Blocked grinder chamber or chute. • Clean and clear grinder chamber and chute.
