OPERATING your Breville Duo-Temp™ espresso machine
STEP 3 - TAMPING THE COFFEE
•Distribute the coffee evenly in the Filter and press down lightly with the tamping end of the measuring spoon (Refer to Coffee Making Tips on Page 21).
•Clean any excess coffee from the rim of the Filter holder to ensure a proper fit into the Brew Head.
STEP 4 - Priming the brew head
•Before placing the Filter Holder into position, it is recommended to run a short flow of water through the Brew Head.
•Ensure the Selector Control is in the ‘Standby’ position and plug the power cord into a 110/120V power outlet and switch on. Press the Power On/Off button to ‘On’ and the button surround will illuminate. The Steam button surround will also illuminate.
•The machine will make a pumping noise then the Heating Light will illuminate red. When the correct temperature has been reached the light will cycle out.
•Place a container under the Brew Head.
•Prime the Brew Head by quickly turning the Selector Control to the ‘Espresso’ position until water flows then turn back to the ‘Standby’ position. A pumping noise will be heard in this operation.
NOTE
The filters are held in place firmly to ensure that they do not get emptied into the trash along with coffee.
NOTE
Remove the filter using the indents in the side of the filter holder, if this proves difficult the BES800XL comes with 2 filters. Use the edge of the free filter as a leverage aid to removing the filter that is fitted.
STEP 5 - Pre-warming the cups
•The Cup Warming Plate will start to warm as the machine heats.
