6. Bedryfsinstruksies
6.1. Koffie maal
Your HIBREW H7B features an integrated grinder for fresh coffee. Fill the bean hopper with whole coffee beans. Adjust the grind size using the dedicated control, typically located near the bean hopper. A finer grind is generally preferred for espresso.
6.2. Brou Espresso
- Berei Portafilter voor: Place the desired filter basket (single or double) into the 58mm portafilter. Grind fresh coffee directly into the filter basket.
- Dose en Tamp: Ensure the correct dose of coffee (e.g., 7-9g for single, 14-18g for double). Distribute the grounds evenly and tamp firmly with the provided tamper. Wipe any loose grounds from the rim.
- Heg Portafilter aan: Insert the portafilter into the group head and twist firmly to secure it.
- Plekbeker: Position your pre-warmed espresso cup(s) under the portafilter spouts.
- Kies Brousel: Use the touchscreen menu to select a single or double shot. The machine allows for adjustable extraction time and volume.
- Monitor druk: Observe the pressure gauge during extraction. Optimal espresso extraction typically occurs within the recommended pressure range indicated on the gauge.

- Aktiveer Steam: Turn the steam knob or select the steam function on the control panel. Allow the machine to heat up until steam is ready.
- Suiweringsstaaf: Maak die stoomklep kortliks oop om enige kondenswater vry te laat. Maak die klep toe.
- Stoommelk: Immerse the tip of the steam wand just below the surface of the milk. Open the steam valve fully. Create a whirlpool motion to incorporate air for frothing, then lower the wand to heat the milk.
- Monitor temperatuur: Heat milk to your desired temperature (typically 60-65°C or 140-150°F).
- Skoonmaakstok: Immediately after steaming, close the steam valve, wipe the steam wand with a damp cloth, and briefly purge it again to clear any milk residue.

The HIBREW H7B simplifies making an Americano with a dedicated one-touch function that brews espresso and then adds hot water from a separate outlet.
