Slayer has a unique method for preparing espresso. Familiar processes and variables may need to be altered when using this machine. You will want to follow general guidelines in the following areas: Roast Profile, Ground Particle Size, Dose Weight & Basket Size, Bed Depth & Tamp Pressure Brew, and Time of Extraction. These parameters are very different in comparison to other machines on the market.

In addition, Slayer’s brew actuator allows for three positions: "off", “pre-brew", and "full brew". The group head is in the "off" position when the brew actuator is moved all the way right. The "pre-brew" setting is activated when the actuator is moved to the middle of the group. "Full brew" is achieved when the actuator is moved all the way left.

Slayer’s advanced temperature management patented precision needle valve, and simple serviceability are the key features of this brand.
