When using a 2 cup filter basket, you should
extract approx. 2oz / 60ml.
WARNING
The metal parts of the portafilter will be
veryhot.
ESPRESSO PRESSURE GAUGE
Low Pressure Pre-Infusion
The gauge needle will be positioned in
the pre-infusion zone at the start of the
extraction indicating the machine is in low
pressure pre-infusionmode.
The low pressure pre-infusion gradually
increases water pressure to gently expand
grinds for an even extraction before
increasing to full pressure.
Ideal Espresso Zone
The gauge needle, when positioned
anywhere within the solid grey zone during
extraction, indicates the espresso has been
extracted at the ideal pressure.


Under Extracted Zone
The gauge needle, when positioned in the
lower zone during extraction, indicates the
espresso has been extracted with insucient
pressure.
This occurs when the water flow through
theground coee is too fast and results in
an under extracted espresso that is watery
and lacks crema and flavor.
Causes for under extraction include the
grind being too coarse and/or insucient
coee in the filter basket and/or under
tamping.
Over Extracted Zone
The gauge needle, when positioned in the
upper zone during extraction, indicates the
espresso has been extracted with too much
pressure.
This occurs when the water flow through the
ground coee is too slow and results in an
over extracted espresso that is very dark and
bitter with a mottled and uneven crema.
Causes for over extraction include the grind
being too fine and/or too much ground
coee in filter basket and/or over tamping.
HOT WATER
• Turn the STEAM/HOT WATER dial
tothe hot water position.
• Hot water will pour from the hot water
outlet and can be used for making
Americanos and pre-heating cups.
• To stop the hot water, return the
STEAM/HOT WATER dial to the
STANDBY position.
STEAM STANDBY HOT WATER
AUTO PURGE
Immediately after the espresso, hot water
and steam functions, the machine will purge
water into the drip tray. This ensures the
thermocoil is at the optimal temperature.
TIP
Ensure the drip tray is firmly pushed in place
and emptied whenever the drip indicator is
displayed.


SLEEP & AUTO OFF MODE
The machine automatically switches to
SLEEP MODE after 1 hour. During this time,
the POWER button light will flash slowly.
After 3 hours, the machine will switch to
AUTO OFF MODE.
To re-activate the machine, press any button
except for the POWER button. The POWER
button light will flash while the machine
re-heats. A pumping sound will be heard.
This is normal. When the machine has
reached the correct operating temperature,
the POWER button light will stop flashing
and all button lights on the control panel
will illuminate.
ADVANCED TEMPERATURE MODE
Dierent beans require a dierent water
temperature to extract their optimum flavor.
The Infuser™ allows you to adjust water
temperature ±4°F in 2°F increments from
thedefault temperature.


PREHEATING
Heating your cup or glass
A warm cup will help maintain the coee’s
optimal temperature. Pre-heat your cup by
rinsing with hot water from the hot water
outlet and place on the cup warming tray.
Heating the portafilter and filter basket
A cold portafilter and filter basket can
reduce the extraction temperature enough
to significantly aect the quality of your
espresso. Always ensure the portafilter and
filter basket are pre-heated with hot water
from the hot water outlet before initial use.
NOTE
Always wipe the portafilter and filter basket dry
before dosing with ground coee as moisture
can encourage ‘channeling’ where water by-
passes the ground coee during extraction.
SELECTING A FILTER BASKET
Single Wall Filter Baskets
Use Single Wall filter baskets if grinding
fresh whole coee beans.
Single Wall filter baskets allow you
toexperiment with grind, dose and tamp
tocreate a more balanced espresso.
1 CUP 2 CUP
Dual Wall Filter Baskets
Use Dual Wall filter baskets if using
pre-ground coee.
Dual Wall filter baskets regulate the
pressure and help to optimize the extraction
regardless of the grind, dose, tamp pressure
or freshness.
1 CUP 2 CUP
NOTE
Regardless of whether you use Single Wall or
Dual Wall filter baskets, use the 1 cup basket
when brewing a single cup and the 2 cup
basket when brewing two cups or a stronger
single cup or mug.
THE GRIND
If grinding coee beans, the grind size
should be fine but not too fine. The grind
size will aect the rate at which the water
flows through the ground coee in the filter
basket and the taste of the espresso.
If the grind is too fine (looks like powder
and feels like flour when rubbed between
fingers), the water will not flow through
the coee even when under pressure.
The resulting espresso will be OVER
EXTRACTED, dark in color and bitter
inflavor.
If the grind is too coarse the water will flow
through the ground coee in the filter basket
too quickly. The resulting espresso will be
UNDER EXTRACTED and lacking incolor
and flavor.


COFFEE DOSE AND TAMPING
• Wipe filter basket with a dry cloth.
• Fill the filter basket with freshly ground
coee. The provided filter baskets are
designed for:
a) 1 CUP basket = approx. 8-11g.
This is approx. 2 level scoops of the
provided coee scoop.
b) 2 CUP basket = approx. 16-19g.
If using pre-ground coee, this is approx.
3 level scoops of the provided coee
scoop.
If using freshly ground coee, this is
approx. 4 level scoops of the provided
coee scoop.
The reason for this dierence is that
pre-ground coee is often coarser and
hence occupies more volume than coee
that is more finely ground.
NOTE
You may need to experiment with how much
coee is inserted into the filter basket or
how long the grinder needs to run to achieve
the correct dose. For example, when using
a finer espresso grind with the Single Wall
filter baskets, you may need to increase the
grind amount to ensure the filter basket is
correctlydosed.
• Tap the portafilter several times
todistribute the coee evenly in the
filterbasket.
• Tamp down firmly (using approx.
22-33lbs or 10-15kg of pressure). The
amount of pressure is not as important
as consistent pressure every time.
As a guide to dose, the top edge of the metal
cap on the tamper should be level with the
top of the filter basket AFTER the coee
has been tamped with 22-33lbs (10-15kg)
ofpressure.
TRIMMING THE DOSE
The Razor™ precision dose trimming tool
allows you to trim the puck to the right level
for a consistent extraction.
the Razor™
Precision dose trimming tool
• Insert the Razor™ dose trimming tool
into the filter basket until the shoulders
of the tool rest on the rim of the basket.
The blade of the dose trimming tool
should penetrate the surface of the
tamped coee.
• Rotate the Razor™ dose trimming
tool back and forth while holding the
portafilter on an angle over a knock
box to trim o excess coee grinds.
Your filter basket is now dosed with the
correct amount of coee.
• Wipe excess coee from the rim of the
filter basket to ensure a proper seal
isachieved in the group head.


PURGING THE GROUP HEAD
Before placing the portafilter into the group
head, run a short flow of water through the
group head by pressing the 1 CUP button.
This will purge any ground coee residue
from the group head and stabilize the
temperature prior to extraction.
INSERTING THE PORTAFILTER
Place the portafilter underneath the group
head so that the handle is aligned with
the INSERT position. Insert the portafilter
into the group head and rotate the handle
towards the center until resistance is felt.
EXTRACTING ESPRESSO
• Place pre-warmed cup(s) beneath the
portafilter and press the 1 CUP or 2 CUP
button for the desired volume. A great
espresso is about achieving the perfect
balance between sweetness, acidity
andbitterness.
• Due to pre-infusion time, the espresso
will not start to flow immediately.
• As a guide, if the espresso starts to flow
before approximately 7 seconds, you
have either under dosed the filter basket
and/or the grind is too coarse. This is
anUNDER EXTRACTED shot.
• If the espresso starts to drip but doesn’t
flow after approximately 12 seconds,
then you have either over dosed the filter
basket and/or the grind is too fine. This
is an OVER EXTRACTED shot.
The flavor of your coee will depend on
many factors, such as the type of coee
beans, degree of roast, freshness, coarseness
or fineness of the grind, dose of ground
coee, and tamping pressure.
Experiment by adjusting these factors just
one at a time to achieve the taste of your
preference.
TEXTURING MILK
• There are two phases to texturing milk.
The first is stretching the milk to aerate
it and the second is swirling the milk
to make it silky smooth. These two
operations should blend into one.
• Always start with fresh cold milk.
• Fill the jug just below the “V” at the
bottom of the spout.
• Position the steam wand tip over the
drip tray and turn the STEAM/HOT
WATER dial to the steam position.
The STEAM/HOT WATER light will
flash to indicate the machine is heating
to create steam. During this time,
condensed water may purge from the
steam wand. This is normal. When
the STEAM/HOT WATER light stops
flashing the steam wand is ready for use.
NOTE
When the machine creates steam, a pumping
noise can be heard. This is the normal
operation of the 15 bar pump.
• Before inserting the steam wand into
the milk, pause the steam by returning
the STEAM/HOT WATER dial back to
the STANDBY position. Quickly insert
the steam wand tip ¼-¾” (1-2cm) below
the surface of the milk, close to the right
hand side of the jug at the 3 o’clock
position. Then quickly turn the STEAM/
HOT WATER dial back to the steam
position. Pausing the steam avoids the
milk splashing out of the jug (this pause
function lasts for 6 seconds only).


• Keep the tip just under the surface of the
milk until the milk is spinning clockwise,
producing a vortex (whirlpool eect).
• With the milk spinning, slowly lower the
jug. This will bring the steam tip to the
surface of the milk & start to introduce
air into the milk. You may have to gently
break the surface of the milk with the tip
to get the milk spinning fast enough.
• Keep the tip at or slightly below the
surface, continuing to maintain the
vortex. Texture the milk until sucient
volume is obtained.
• Lift the jug to lower the tip beneath
the surface, but keep the vortex of milk
spinning. The milk is at the correct
temperature (140-150°F or 60-65°C)
when the jug is hot to touch.
• Turn o steam BEFORE taking the tip
out of the milk.
• Set the jug to one side. Wipe the wand &
tip with a damp cloth. Position the steam
tip above the drip tray and turn steam
onto purge out any residual milk from
the steam wand.
• Tap the jug on the bench to collapse
anybubbles.
• Swirl the jug to “polish” and re-integrate
the texture.
• Pour milk directly into the espresso.
• The key is to work quickly, before the
milk begins to separate.
NOTE
After 5 minutes of continuous steaming, the
machine will automatically disable the steam
function. The STEAM/HOT WATER light will
flash. When this occurs return the STEAM/
HOT WATER dial to the STANDBY position.
HINTS & TIPS
• Fresh, quality coee beans will give you
the best possible extraction.
• We recommend quality 100% Arabica
beans with a ‘Roasted On’ date stamped
on the bag, not a ‘Best Before’ or ‘Use By’
date.
• Coee beans are best consumed
between 5–20 days after the ‘Roasted
On’ date. Ideally only grind directly
before the extraction to maximize flavor.
• Buy coee beans in small batches
toreduce the storage time.
• Store coee beans in a cool, dark and dry
container. Vacuum seal if possible.

REPLACEMENT DUE
The provided water filter helps prevent
scale build-up in and on many of the inner
functioning components. Replacing the
water filter every two months will reduce the
need to decalcify the machine.
If you live in a hard water area, we recommend
you change the water filter more frequently.
• Remove the new water filter from the
plastic bag.
• Soak the new water filter in a cup of
water for 5 minutes, then rinse under
cold running water.
• Insert the filter into the filter holder.
• Set Date Dial 2 months ahead.
• To install the assembled water filter
holder into the water tank, align the base
of the water filter holder with the adapter
inside the water tank. Push down to lock
into place.
• Slide the water tank back into position
at the back of the machine, ensuring to
push down completely to lock into place.
The water filter should be removed if using
filtered or bottled water.
NOTE
To purchase water filters, contact Breville
Consumer Support.

DESCALING
NOTE
Ensure that the water filter is removed from
the water tank before adding the descaling
powder when descaling the machine.
After regular use, hard water can cause
mineral build up in and on many of the
inner functioning components, reducing the
brewing flow, brewing temperature, power of
the machine, and taste of the espresso.
We advise you to undertake the descaling
processes outlined below when the
‘DESCALE/CLEAN’ indicator is illuminated
(solid on).
Refer to CLEANING CYCLE when the
‘DESCALE/CLEAN’ indicator isflashing.
Check if descaling is required
1. Check if the ‘DESCALE/CLEAN’ light
is illuminated (solid on), descaling
isrequired.
WARNING
Do not immerse power cord, power plug
or appliance in water or any other liquid.
The water tank should never be removed or
completely emptied during descaling.
