    Procedural Checklist 1.

    1-1
    Set Up And Prepare Machine And Equipment

    LO1. Set Up And Prepare Machine And Equipment

    Trainees Name: ________________________________ Date: ___________________

    During the performance of the activity did the trainee follow the steps by
    step procedure?

    Procedure Yes No
    1. First, fill the water tank of your espresso
    machine, then make sure all the switches
    are set to “OFF”.
    2. Then turn on your machine’s “ON” switch.

    3. Let the water run for a couple of seconds,


    then turn the “brew” switch off.

    4. Wait until the "heating" light goes out, then


    run some water out of the group and wave
    a finger under it.
    5. Turn on the "steam" switch and the
    "heating" light will activate; when it goes
    out the boiler should be at steaming
    temperature.
    6. Open the steam valve, and if you get a blast
    of steam and instant fog, this function is
    working as well.

    7. Close the steam wand, turn off the steam


    switch, and (depending on your machine)
    either hit the “brew” button or the “HOT
    WATER” switch.
    8. Let the water run until the heating light
    comes on again, then turn off the brew or
    hot water switch.

    9. Turn on the brew switch and simply run


    water through the group via the empty
    portafilter for 10 seconds and measure how
    much you get.
    10. Your next step is to tune in your
    grinder again.
    11. The hard part here is “consistency.”

    12. Check that the grinder is not screwed


    up so tightly the burrs are touching, dump
    in a few beans and grind for a few seconds.
    13. This is your starting point grind.

    14. Now grind at least 14g of coffee. 

    15. Fill your double filter basket level,


    wipe off any excess coffee with a finger
    across the top, tamp it down and lock the
    portafilter into the machine.
    16. Hit the brew button and time how
    long it takes you to get 60ml.

    17. Turn off the brew button, empty and


    wipe dry the filter basket, set your grinder
    1 notch finer.
    18. Grind about 5 grams of coffee to
    clean out any of the old stuff, and set it
    aside.
    19. Then grind 14 grams or so, fill the
    filter basket, tamp and brew.

    20. Repeat until you’ve got a 25 second


    60 ml shot.
    21. When you’ve got to this point, replace
    your junk coffee (if you’re using it) with
    good stuff and try
    For satisfactory achievement, all items should receive a YES response.
