Step 7 : Steaming
A lower but faster regulated steam temperature increases the consistency of your steam and provides a smoother experience. To support steaming your meCoffee needs to be aware of the state of the steam button and needs to bypass the installed steam thermostat.
Note: this is the archived installation manual for the legacy version of meCoffee shipped before July 1st, 2017.
You can either leave the original steam thermostat installed ( recommended ) or remove it altogether.
First bypass the steam thermostat: remove the yellow cable from the steam-thermostat and the gray wire from terminal #4 from it’s gray-counter part. Connect the gray male end with the yellow wire. The female gray counterpart stays unconnected.
Remove the gray cable from the steam thermostat and connect it terminal #7 using a black cable from the set. The original gray wire’s purpose is now reduced to connecting the steam button to terminal #7 of your meCoffee.
Definition of success
When you turn on your machine the boiler lights up. When you press the steam-switch the boiler goes to 100% until it reaches the steam-temperature.
