Features of your Torino continued

Over-extracted. When the needle goes beyond

the target area it indicates that the serve of

espresso is ‘over-extracted’ as it has extracted

too much of the essential oils, flavours and

colours from the coffee grinds. This occurs when

the water passes very slowly through the tamped

coffee grinds and is an indication that either

the grind is too fine (so that it is difficult for the

water to pass through) or the filter basket has

been over-dosed (too much coffee in the basket).

In this situation the hot water is in contact with

the coffee grinds for too long which creates a

burnt and bitter tasting espresso. There may be

no pour, or it may be slow and drip throughout

the entire pour. The crema is very dark.

Shot Clock

The shot clock provides another indicator of the

quality of the pour. The optimum time per shot

varies between different bean types. However in

general:

· Single shot = 20 – 35 seconds

· Double shot = 50 - 65 seconds

Manual Pour Arm

You can use the manual arm if you like your

shot shorter or longer than the standard pour,

or if you like to change the duration of the

pour for different bean types which require

different brew lengths.

Commercial Size Group Head & Group Handle

The exterior of the Torino, is inspired from the

traditional, high polished commercial Italian

machines, and the iconic Italian e61 group

head. The group head and 58mm group handle

are designed to commercial specifications

using brass and stainless steel components

for durability, and to help bring a professional

espresso experience to your home.

The sloping group handle has been designed by

Sunbeam for an easier, more ergonomic use;

and to provide a more even tamp. The angle of

the handle provides a more ergonomic action

when attaching and removing the handle from

the group head. The sloping handle also allows

you to rest the group handle on the bench

whilst keeping the filter basket level, making

it easier to produce an even tamp, ensuring an

even extraction. The tamping pad on the under-

side of the group handle basket allows you to

position the group handle on the edge of your

bench top when tamping.

Pre-Infusion

Pre-infusion is pre-programmed into the

Torino. Pre-infusion warms and wets the

coffee grounds under low pressure to bring

the particles together to form one cake/ puck,

before full water pressure is applied. This

helps to prepare the bean oils for extraction

to deliver greater body and sweetness to the

espresso. It also allows the cake to bloom

(expand) into the shower head so there is an

even surface for an even pour.

Drip tray and grill

The large capacity drip tray is lined with

plastic, preventing staining from espresso

oils, lightweight for easy removal and

designed with no dirt traps for simple wipe

down cleaning.

Single floor filter baskets

These are the most common style of filter

baskets. As the name implies, these baskets

have a single floor. If you hold these up to

the light, you can see many small holes.

The smaller single filter is used for a single

cup of coffee, and the larger double filter

is used for two cups of coffee, or one single

'double strength' cup of coffee. Suitable

dosage varies from bean to bean. However in

general the dose for a single filter is between

10-12g, and double flter is 18-20g.
