Adjust the coffee grind size to make it finer, as a coarser grind may result in weaker coffee. Additionally, ensure that you are using the correct amount of coffee grounds according to the recommended guidelines for the desired strength.

I’m trying to change the volume of water when making a cup of expresso I. My Francis Francis home expresso machine. Serial number ZAC820413. I can’t find a manual for this model

This message has been automatically translatedHello, The pressure indicator remains stuck at the lowest level. Is this normal? Thank you.
This message has been automatically translatedI want to clean the filter on my Francis Francis X1 coffee machine but when I look at the instructions on page 13 of the manual it says you are to clean it with the machine cold and unplugged - out a tablet in the filter holder and turn on the coffee switch for 20 seconds. When I do this nothing happens - there is no pressure to force hot water through the filter so why does it say you have to unplug the machine?
I have the older version X1. It has not been used for some time. The plastic tube in the water reservoir does not suck the water into the machine. I have noticed slight tiny, tiny bubbles at first but then nothing. I have checked the shower screen under the filter holder.
Water from reservoir is not sucked in
Why does the hazard sign keeps on blinking?
How do I get the expresso to stop automatically at desired fill level?
