Operating & Cleaning Guidelines

1. Daily Setup & Pre-Heating: Turn on mains water supply and electrical power. Allow the 17-litre copper boiler to fill and heat for 20 to 30 minutes until the boiler pressure gauge reads between 1.0 and 1.2 bar and the group heads reach operating temperature.

2. Volumetric Dosing & Service: Dose ground coffee into portafilters, tamp evenly, and lock into group heads. Press the appropriate volumetric touch button (single/double espresso) to initiate automatic volumetric extraction. Use dual steam wands for rapid milk texturizing.

3. Daily Hygiene & Backflushing: At the end of trading shifts, purge and wipe down steam wands. Perform automated group head backflushing using blind filter baskets and approved commercial espresso cleaning powder. Empty and wipe down the stainless steel drip tray and shower screens.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Does the Bezzera B2016 3-Group machine fit tall takeaway coffee cups?

Yes. The B2016 range features a generous 13 cm working cup clearance height, allowing baristas to place standard 12 oz, 16 oz, and 20 oz takeaway coffee cups directly beneath the group spouts without requiring tilted pouring.

2. What electrical supply does the Bezzera BZB2016B3DE require?

The machine draws 5,000 Watts (approx. 21.7 Amps) and requires a hardwired 240V single-phase (25A dedicated circuit) or 415V 3-phase electrical connection installed by a licensed electrician. It cannot run on a standard 10A or 15A wall plug.

3. What is the advantage of volumetric dosing over manual dosing?

Volumetric dosing automatically measures the precise volume of water passed through the coffee bed for each shot. This guarantees consistent extraction ratios, beverage strength, and speed across different barista shifts during busy trade.

4. Why are the 50W group head electric heaters important?

Independent 50 Watt electrical heaters actively warm each group head, ensuring that the group body maintains exact thermal stability even during high-volume periods when large quantities of water pass through the system.

5. What warranty covers the Bezzera B2016 3-group espresso machine?

This Italian-made commercial coffee machine comes supported standard by a 1-Year Commercial Parts Warranty.
