Eco Mode Explained
Eco mode reduces the temperature of the brew
and/or steam boiler by the value set in the advanced
menu option "Economy DT"
. If a value of 80 is set,
boiler temperatures will be reduced by a value of
80C from their set point. Values larger than 80
cannot be set.
If full ECO mode and not just the steam boiler is
selected, the brew boiler might reduce from 94C, to
a brew temperature of 14C. this would mean the
boiler is effectively switched off. Economy mode is of
very little use on the brew boiler, as the group would
cool down and require significant time warm up
again. Also the display switches to green in full eco
mode, which is irritating..
We recommend the ECO setting is restricted to use
on the Steam boiler only.
If the steam (service) boiler is set to 127 and in the
advanced menu, "Economy DT" is set to 67, with
an Economy time ("Time Economy" value) of 8. After
8 minutes of inactivity, the steam boiler temperature
will reduce to 60C.
By setting the steam boiler to run this way, you can
walk away after steaming, knowing that the
temperature will automatically reduce. This keeps
the machine cooler and gives a very rapid warm up
to full steaming temperature. 60C is a temperature
providing optimum energy efficiency and a warm up
time reduced by 50%. This would allow the boiler
to be ready for steaming in under 3 minutes
instead of nearly 6 minutes.
The Steam boiler will come out of ECO mode, when
the brew lever is lifted, the pump runs, or the display
is touched.
There is a further economy setting in the advanced
menu called. "Time to off". This setting will switch
the machine to standby in whatever number of
minutes has been set (max value 999), after the
machine enters economy mode. This can be useful
in a number of circumstances.
If you don't use the daily on/off timers and want the
machine to switch off if it's not being used
Or
You wish the machine to be on before you get up
and go to work, but your work pattern varies. You
can for example, set the machine to come on at 7am
with no off time and on again at 7pm and off at
11pm. You then might set a "Time to off" of 2 hours
If you are in all day and using the machine it will stay
on. If you have to suddenly leave for a meeting, the
machine will switch off after 2 hours and then switch
on again in the evening at 7pm.
If Eco mode is active and only the steam boiler
selected. The home screen will show "Eco", instead
of the temperature
If the steam boiler is switched off in the ECO menu,
the display will show "Off" instead of steam
temperature
.
