Introduction

Precisia SYL-100

Thank you for purchasing the Precisia SYL-100 espresso and cappuccino machine. We

sincerely appreciate your decision and trust that our machine will meet your expectations

in both the quality of the espresso produced and the high value of our product. While we

are delighted that you may be anxious to brew some espresso or make a delicious

cappuccino, a few minutes of your time reading through this manual now will only serve

to enhance your espresso experience in the months and years ahead. In particular, we

would urge you to read through the safety warnings below. Although brewing and

drinking espresso is a delightful experience, the process involves hot water under high

pressure and your safety is paramount.

SAFTY WARNINGS

•The power source must meet the specifications of the coffee machine with correct

voltage and proper grounding connections.

•Do not attempt to remove the portafilter holder during or immediately following the

brewing operation. Very hot water under high pressure will spray out possibly

causing injury to the user. Wait 15 seconds after brewing stops before removing

the portafilter assembly.

•Do not touch the metal tubing of the steam wand nozzle during and right after

frothing milk. Do not touch the bottom or sides of the group head when the

machine is on. These surfaces are very hot.

•If an abnormal display or noise is observed, turn the machine off, unplug the

power cord and contact the manufacturer before using it again.

•Do not move the machine when water is present in the reservoir. Water may spill

inside the machine causing permanent damage or electric shock.

•Clean the machine only when it is cool and unplugged.

•Empty the water reservoir if the machine will be subjected to freezing

temperature.

•Do not allow children to operate machine unless they are under adult supervision.

Our Mission

Precisia Coffee is dedicated to manufacturing precision temperature controlled home

espresso machines. It is widely recognized that proper brewing water temperature is

one of the most important factors affecting the taste of the espresso. If the water

temperature is too low, it will not completely extract the aroma from the coffee.

However, if the water temperature is too high, it will extract unwanted bitterness.

Experts believe that the brewing temperature for any particular blend of espresso beans

(optimum is typically between 196 F and 204 F) should be maintained within one degree

during the extraction process in order to produce the best tasting espresso. In addition,

each individual may have their own taste preferences of that coffee which can be

affected by the brewing water temperature. Most home espresso machines use a

simple snap action on-off thermostat as a means of controlling water temperature. This

can allow for a fluctuation of up to 40 degrees (Fahrenheit) in the brew water

temperature and is the primary reason why most espressos made in the home cannot

equal the taste of an espresso brewed in a commercial coffee cafe.

Precision Temperature Control

The Precisia SYL-100 incorporates a custom developed temperature control system

utilizing a PID algorithm that can maintain the water temperature for brewing your

espresso within one degree of the selected value. Users can easily change the water

temperature to suit their own taste. The actual temperature of the boiler is displayed by

a bright red LED display with a green light signifying when the water is ready for brewing

your espresso.

Home espresso machines usually require a rapid heat up speed. This requirement

makes it difficult to obtain precision and stable temperature control, especially for a

stainless steel boiler/group head. Precisia has achieved superior performance with

these usually-contradictory parameters through innovative hardware and software

design. The system generally takes about 5 minutes to heat up from room temperature

and less than 2 minutes between each shot.

Precision Shot Volume Control

The shot volume of the espresso can be easily adjusted to suit the user’s preferences.

The shot volume is adjusted by varying the pumping time with one-second accuracy.

Stainless Steel Group Head

Precisia uses a stainless steel grouphead for better taste and uniform temperature rather

than the more commonly used brass group heads which have the tendency to absorb

coffee oils and negatively affect the taste.

With Precisia, you are in total control of your espresso!

Unpacking the Precisia SYL-100

The Precisia SYL-100 comes nicely packaged in a sturdy cardboard box with formed

styrofoam inserts to prevent damage due to shifting during transit.

Carefully inspect the exterior packaging of the machine for any signs of damage during

transit. Pictures of transit damage are invaluable should it be necessary to file a claim

with the delivery service or carrier.

The machine itself is wrapped in an easily removable plastic bag. After removing the

machine from its box and removing the plastic bag, remove the blue-colored protection

film from the warming plate and replace the plate back on the top of the machine.

All of the filter baskets and portafilter are in the styrofoam block tightly packed beneath

the control panel. Slightly rotate the steam nozzle outwards and push the styrofoam to

the left to get it out. The steaming/frothing thermometer is inside the water reservoir.

CAUTION

Do not leave the bag where younger children can easily

access it.

A good idea would be to store the plastic bag and all other packaging materials back in

the Precisia box for later use.

Visually inspect the machine for any damage due to shipping and handling.

Description of Components

Control Panel. The control panel serves as the interface between you (the barista) and

your espresso machine. Here you can turn the machine on and off, set the temperature

parameters for brewing espresso and steaming/frothing milk, and the amount of time the

pump operates for brewing espresso shots.

Warming plate. Placing cups on this plate will help keep them warm. Pre-warmed

cups will make the espresso taste better by increasing the life span of the delicious

crema foam formed on top of the espresso liquid.

plash Grid and Drip Tray. The drip tray assembly consists of two molded pieces; the

ortafilter Assembly. The portafilter assembly consists of the portafilter itself and your

ounces of water for brewing coffee and producing steam for frothing milk. While the

water level can be easily seen from either the front or the side of the machine, your

Precisia is equipped with a magnetically activated low water level switch. This swit

automatically turns the power off to both the pump and heating element to prevent

damage to the machine when the water level reaches a preset low level. A filtered

water source, e.g. Brita pitcher or equivalent, is highly recommended for the water tha

your machine will use for brewing your espresso.

Unlock the filter lock with your thumb. Raise the assembly until the front is in the

grouphead hole. Turn the portafilter assembly counterclockwise for approximately 6

degrees (until the handle is at the 6:00 to 5:30 position or until it feels snug). Check t

make sure the portafilter assembly is correctly installed. To remove the filter assembly

from the espresso machine, turn the handle of the filter assembly clockwise for 60

degrees and then drop it slightly to remove. Engage the filter basket lock to retain

filter basket in the portafilter and dispose the spent coffee grounds or espresso POD in a

convenient trash container.

steamed and frothed milk for delicious cappuccinos or lattes. Press the CAP/▼key

and wait until temperature reaches your set value (240 F is the default setting) and for

the ready light to stop flashing. Place your steaming pitcher, filled to 1/4 - 1/3 capacity

with fresh cold milk, underneath the steam nozzle. Open the steam valve by turning the

steam knob counterclockwise. After the milk is frothed to your satisfaction, close the

valve by gently turning the knob clockwise.

CAUTION

After steaming, the steam wand is very hot. Be extremely careful with

your hands and fingers when moving (rotating) the high temperature

steam wand.

Please select a stainless steel steaming pitcher of proper height and capacity.

Recommended steaming pitcher sizes range from 12 to 20 ounces in capacity. Fill the

steaming pitcher approximately 1/4 to 1/3 of its capacity with the fresh chilled milk of your

choice. This will ensure sufficient frothed milk for two delicious cappuccinos or lattes.

After you are finished the frothing operation, clean the nozzle internally by briefly

releasing a small burst of steam into a wet cloth and then wipe the outside of the nozzle

with that same wet cloth.

this filter basket can be converted to a single shot basket by removing the white plastic

ring and the white o-ring.
