Least Successful Element & Recommended Change:

The manual could benefit from more troubleshooting tips for uncommon issues, such as addressing

inconsistent coffee temperature, and a clearer layout in some sections for faster access to information. For

example, a potential troubleshooting issue could be:

Issue: Inconsistent Coffee Temperature

Solution: Check that the machine is properly preheated and that the cup is pre-warmed. If the issue persists,

descale the machine as mineral buildup may affect temperature consistency. Consult the descaling section of

the manual for instructions.
