DO NOT USE FRESH OR GROUND COFFEE PRODUCTS. YOUR
BREVILLE MOMENTS™HOT DRINK MAKER IS DESIGNED TO USE INSTANT
COFFEE AND HOT CHOCOLATE. FOR BEST RESULTS ADD MALTED MILK
DRINK PRODUCTS DIRECTLY TO THE CUP. DO NOT USE SACHETS OF INSTANT
CAPPUCCINO OR LATTE IN THIS UNIT.
To prevent damage, never use your Breville Moments™hot drink maker without
water.
The time taken for your Breville Moments™ hot drink maker to heat the water fully
will depend on the amount of water in the water boiler.
For safety purposes, the water boiler cap cannot be removed when pressure builds
in the water boiler as a result of the water heating. The water boiler cap will spin
freely if you try to remove it during use. You must wait for the unit to cool down
fully before removing the cap.
Ensure that the control lever is in the OFF position when the milk tank assembly is
detached from the main housing unit.
Do not operate the unit without the mixing chamber in place on the milk tank
assembly.
1. If you have not used the unit for a while, check that there is water in the boiler. The
maximum ll capacity is 400ml. If the unit was disassembled after last use, make
sure that the milk tank assembly is fully inserted into the main housing unit.
2. Plug the unit into the mains supply, and turn the control lever to the HEAT UP
position ( ). The power indicator light will ash.

3. Lift the hinged lid and ll the milk tank with milk using the quick ll funnel, up to the
level required. The maximum capacity will provide 2 large mugs or 4 cups. DO NOT
EXCEED THE MAXIMUM LEVEL. You can add more milk easily if you want to make
more drinks. Lower the hinged lid and click into place.
4. Remove the mixing chamber lid by turning it anti‑clockwise. Use a teaspoon to add
the instant coffee into the front of the mixing chamber (look for the embossed spoon
for guidance). Only add enough coffee to brew ONE cup at a time. You can adjust
the quantity to suit your own taste, but you may nd that you need more coffee than
when making it with water.
Replace the lid of the mixing chamber by turning it clockwise to secure the correct lid
orientation.
