QUICK START GUIDE

M58 Espresso Machine by Quick Mill

Congratulations on your purchase of the LUCCA M58 Espresso Machine by Quick Mill! Here are a 

few pointers to help get your machine up and running.

Installation

Please ensure you read the safety and warranty information before installing your machine. 

Follow the instruction manual for installation and first use.

Water Quality

Take note of the water quality requirements for espresso machines. This is imperative for the 

function and longevity of your machine. The water mineral content should be between 5 and 

50ppm and the water must not be distilled, deionized or reverse osmosis treated.

Dialing in your Grinder

When dialing in a new coffee, use these parameters to help get you started:

Grind: Fine (like fine sand)

Dose: Approximately 18 grams coffee (double basket) or 22 grams (bottomless portafilter basket)

Volume: 1.5 to 2.0oz

Extraction Time: 25-30 seconds from when the button is pressed

Adjust the grind to achieve a volume of 1.5 to 2.0oz within 25-30 seconds.

If your shots are:

Running too fast (<25 seconds): fine up the grind or increase coffee dose weight.

Running too slow (>30 seconds) - coarsen up the grind or decrease coffee dose weight.

Continue to make adjustments to fit your taste and preferences. These are only guidelines!

Here are some more advanced tips for great espresso extraction:

•  Your group boiler temperature should be between 198-205°F.

•  Use fresh coffee, roasted within 4-10 days of use is ideal for optimal flavor extraction.

•  Store your coffee in an airtight container, not in the fridge or freezer.

•  Always grind to order. Pre-ground coffee will result in faster extraction times and less

   aroma & flavor.

•  Ensure your machine is fully heated before use. It usually takes 20 minutes for the boiler,

   group head and portafilter to warm up for a good extraction.
