Machine Preparation Remove and discard all labels and packaging materials attached to your espresso machine. Ensure you have removed all parts and accessories from the box before discarding thepackaging. Remove the water tank located at the back of the machine by pulling the water tank handle. Clean parts and accessories (water tank, portafilter, filter baskets, jug) using warm water and a gentle dish washing liquid. Rinse well then dry thoroughly. NOTE Machines with color, drip tray protection guard is included. DO NOT DISCARD.

INSTALLING THE WATER FILTER

• Remove the water filter and water filter holder from the plastic bag.

• Soak the filter in cold water for 5 minutes.

• Rinse the filter holder with cold water.

• Set the reminder for next month of replacement. We recommend to replace thefilter after 3 months.

• Insert the filter into the two parts of the filter holder.

• To install the assembled filter holder into the water tank, align the base of the filter holder with the adapter inside the water tank. Push down to lock into place. NOTE Replacing the water filter every three months will reduce the need to descale the machine. Filters can be purchased at www.breville.com NOTE If your water hardness is either 4 or 5 when tested, we strongly recommend you to change to an alternate water source. Filtered water will extend both the life of your built-in filter and descale intervals as well as superior taste. Please ensure to test the water hardness of the alternative water source you’ve chosen and input into the machine accordingly. Avoid using overly filtered water, like RO water unless some mineral content is being added back to the final water. Never use distilled water, or water with no or low mineral content as this will aect the taste of coee. Assembly13

Attaching the Hopper

• Insert the bean hopper into position on top ofthe machine.

• Turn the dial to lock the hopper into place.

• Fill the hopper with fresh beans. TIP We recommend quality 100% Arabica beans with a ‘Roasted On’ date stamped on the bag, not a ‘Best Before’ or ‘Use By’ date. Coee beans are best consumed between 5 to 20 days after the ‘Roasted On’ date. Stale coee may pour too quickly from the portafilter spouts and taste bitter and watery. NOTE This machine is designed only for whole roasted coee beans. Avoid grinding unroasted green and under-roasted coee beans. These are dense and not brittle enough to run through a burr grinder. This will damage or break burr grinders and even pose a safety risk. Filling the Water Tank

• Ensure the water filter is securely fitted inside the water tank.

• Use the handle at the top of the water tank to assist in lifting the water tank and away from the machine. MAX

• Fill the water tank with cold potable tap water up to the MAX marking indicated on the side of the water tank.

• Replace the water tank back on the machine, pressing down to ensure that it is properly positioned and attached to the machine. MAX NOTE If the water level in the water tank is below the minimum (MIN) marking, the espresso machine will not operate. Functions14 Attaching the Drip Tray

• Place the drip tray grill on top of the drip tray.

• Machines with color, attach the drip tray protection guard cover on the drip tray.

• Slide the drip tray into the machine. NOTE Using the drip tray protection guard cover is optional. But note that using the drip tray protection guard can protect your drip tray from dents and scratches. GENERAL OPERATION

• Check the water tank is filled with cold tap water up to the maximum mark.

• Plug the power cord into the power outlet.

• Press the ‘Power’ button.

• Follow the instructions on screen to guide you through first use setup. DRINK SELECTION Swipe and select your choice of drink.

Intelligent Brew Setup is a feature that helps achieve a good coee extraction range by assisting the dial-in process of the grinder. When successfully completed, you can enjoy a balanced coee shot. From this point, further adjust grind size and experiment to suit your style. It is recommended using this feature whenever you change beans, or the too fast or too slow notifications are shown on screen. Find the Intelligent Brew Setup in the Settings menu under Drinks Settings.

For best coee results, if the machine has not been used for a while it is recommended to purge any stale beans that have been ground and left in the grinder chute. To purge; tap and hold the grind button for 2 seconds, and run for around 5 seconds. To stop; press the stop button. Grind purge will stop automatically after 30 seconds if stop button is not pressed. ASSISTED TAMPING

• When grind cycle is completed, the machine is ready to tamp. Push the lever downwards to the end position. This will tamp the coee grinds in the portafilter using a consistent amount of tamp force. Pushing the lever slowly and consistently will help to improve the puck appearance.

• Release the lever slowly upwards to the home position after tamping.

• Repeat the tamping action as above twice.16 NOTE Screen will indicate if tamp or dose is low, ideal or high.

HOW TO CORRECT AN UNDER OR

OVER DOSE? An under or over dose can occur when fresh beans are added to the hopper; when coee beans age; a dierent type of coee bean is used or if a change is made to the grind size. What to do when dose level is below the ideal middle bar?

• When dose is below the ideal middle bar, the machine will indicate and calculate ‘A Bit More’. Tap the portafilter image on screen to add a bit more and follow screen prompts and complete a tamp for an updated dose level reading.

• When ideal dose level is reached, the machine will automatically update the auto dose time for the next cycle. What to do when dose level is above the ideal middle bar?

• When dose is above the ideal middle bar, remove the portafilter from the cradle.

• Use the Razor Trimming Tool. (refer to Trimming the Dose section).

• The machine will calculate how much to reduce the auto grind time and apply this forthe next cycle. OVER DOSE (TRIMMING THE DOSE) Precision dose trimming tool The Razor™ precision dose trimming tool allows you to trim the puck to the right level for a consistent extraction. Insert the Razor™ into the coee basket until the shoulders of the tool rest on the rim of the filter basket. The blade of the dosing tool should penetrate the surface of the tamped coee. Rotate the Razor™ dosing tool back and forth while holding the portafilter on an angle over the knock box to trim o excess coee.17

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. ESPRESSO EXTRACTION

• Select a display of brew options on the screen.

• Select the café size options from: Single (approx. 1.0 fl oz / 30 mL), Double (approx.2.0 fl oz / 60 mL) Double+ (approx. 3.0 fl oz / 90 mL).

• Select Custom and slide and drag the dot toincrease or decrease the coee volume.

• Tap the coee cup image on the screen tostart extraction.

• The duration times are preset but can becustomized. MANUAL OVERRIDE Press and hold the coee image (approx. 2seconds) to enter manual extraction mode. Touch the coee image to start the extraction, touch the coee image again to stop the extraction. NOTE

• The amount of espresso extracted in the cup will vary depending on your grind size and grind amount settings.

• Touching the coee image during a preset shot volume will immediately stop the extraction.

• For optimal flavor when using a 1 cup filter basket, you should extract approx. 1.0 fl oz/ 30 mL. When using a 2 cup filter basket, youshould extract approx. 2.0 fl oz / 60 mL. TEXTURING MILK Dierent brands and milk alternatives will texture dierently. For best texturing results it is recommended to use whole milk when using dairy milk and use barista type milks when using plant-based milks. Adjust the froth level accordingly. Start with cold milk. Fill milk jug to below the spout position. Lift the steam wand and insert into milk jug. Lower steam wand, ensuring it is fully down. The milk jug should rest on the milk temperature sensor located on the drip tray and tip of the steam wand should be submerged and ensure that milk covers the ring around the steam wand tip. MAX MIN MILK MUST COVER THIS RING NOTE Check the image on the screen for the correct milk jug position. Under the milk jug image, tap the icon to adjust the milk temperature, the level of milk froth orchange your milk option: Dairy, Almond, Oat or Soy. To start, touch the ‘Milk jug’ image. The screen will display the temperature of the milk as itheats.18 TIP All milk-based drinks

• Brew coee first and queue milk texturing.

• Texture milk first and queue coee brewing Milk texturing will stop automatically when the selected milk temperature is reached. Lift steam wand to remove milk jug. Wipe the wand and tip with a clean damp cloth. Lower steam wand to the down position and the wand will automatically purge.

MANUAL MILK TEXTURING

Auto milk texturing and auto shut-o are disabled during manual milk texturing mode. Start with a cold milk. Fill milk jug to below the spout position. Lift the steam wand and slide the milk jug under the steam wand. Hold the milk jug at an angle. Start frothing by tapping the milk jug image on screen. When frothing is done and the jug is hot to comfortably touch; tap the milk jug image on screen to stop. Wipe the wand & tip with a clean damp cloth. Lower steam wand to the down position and the wand will automatically purge.

CAUTION: BURN HAZARD

Pressurized steam can still be released, even after machine has been switched o. Children must always be supervised. NOTE

• When the machine creates steam, a pumping noise can be heard. This is the normal operation of the pump.

• Use exclusively the stainless steel milk jug included in the pack to froth milk. The use ofcontainer made of glass or plastic material to froth milk may lead to overheating milk ordangerous conditions.

The machine has a dedicated hot water spout. The HOT WATER function can be used to pre- heat cups or add hot water manually. Tostart and stop hot water, touch ‘Hot Water’ icon on the screen. NOTE Using the hot water spout and the steam wand is not possible when extracting espresso. Run hot water before or after extracting espresso. WARNING Filled cup temperature is approximately 167°F- 194°F (75 °C - 90 °C). Be careful in handling hot beverages.19

TIP Heating your cup or glass A warm cup will help maintain the coee’s optimal temperature. Pre-heat your cup by rinsing with hot water from the hot water spout 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 aect the quality of your espresso. Always ensure the portafilter and filter basket are pre-heated with hot water from the hot water spout before initial use. NOTE Always wipe the portafilter and filter basket dry before dosing with ground coee as moisture can encourage ‘channeling’ where water by- passes the ground coee during extraction. FILTER BASKETS This machine includes both single and dual wall, 1 cup and 2 cup filter baskets. Use the 1 cup filter basket when brewing a single cup and the 2 cup filter baskets when brewing 2 cups or a stronger single cup or mug. The provided filter baskets are designed for ground coee: 1 cup filter basket = 8-11g 2 cup filter basket = 16-19g Single Wall Filter Baskets 1 CUP 2 CUP Single Wall filter baskets should be used when grinding fresh whole coee beans. These allows you to experiment with grind and dose to create a more balanced espresso. Dual Wall Filter Baskets 1 CUP 2 CUP Dual Wall filter baskets should be used when using pre-ground coee and older beans that are past the 30 day roast date. These regulate the pressure and help to optimize the extraction regardless of the grind, dose, or freshness. THE GRIND Adjusting the Grind Size The grind size will aect the rate of water flow through the coee in the filter basket and the flavor of the espresso. When setting the grind size, it should be fine but not too fine and powdery.20 To adjust the grind, rotate the grind dial to the back of the machine to go coarser, or rotate the dial towards the front of the machine to go finer or slide the dot on the screen to the left for a finer grind or to the right for a coarser grind. The smaller the value shown on screen, the finer the grind size. The larger the value shown on screen, the coarser the grind size. NOTE

• When making changes to the grind size, the new auto dosing time will be calculated after your next tamp and updated for the dose cycle following that. The dose amount is calculated and stored automatically. Two to three extractions may be required to calibrate the extraction. Extracting Espresso

• As a guide, the espresso will start to flow after 8-12 seconds (infusion time) and should bethe consistency of dripping honey.

• If the espresso starts to flow before 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 12 seconds, then you have either over dosed the filter basket and/or the grind is too fine. This is an OVER-EXTRACTED shot. A great espresso is about achieving the perfect balance between sweetness, acidity, and bitterness. The flavor of your coee will depend on many factors, such as the type of coee beans, degree of roast, freshness, coarseness or fineness of the grind, and the dose of ground coee. Experiment by adjusting these factors just one at a time to achieve the taste of your preference.

CUSTOMIZED DRINKS Adding A New Drink When customizing a default drink, tap the disk icon on the upper right of the screen to rename and save newly created coee settings.
