when using the Tea Maker as a variable temperature kettle.

 

 

When brewing tea, the BASKET button can be used in

 

 

3 different ways:

 

 

1. To assist infusion

 

 

-

This feature continuously auto lifts and lowers the Tea

 

 

 

Basket during the tea brewing cycle. This movement

 

 

 

loosens the tea leaves within the Tea Basket, allowing the

 

 

 

heated water to circulate freely around the tea leaves for

 

 

 

maximum infusion.

 

 

-

To select this feature, press the BASKET button once,

 

 

 

before or during the tea brewing cycle (see Page 18,

 

 

 

‘Selecting the Basket Cycle Feature’).

 

 

2.

For extra infusion

 

 

-

This feature lowers the Tea Basket after the brewing cycle

 

 

 

is complete. The extra infusion produces a stronger

 

 

 

tasting tea.

 

 

-

To select this feature, press and hold the BASKET button

 

 

 

for 2 seconds after the tea brewing cycle is complete.

 

 

 

The Tea Basket will lower. Once the desired strength

 

 

 

has been reached, press and hold the BASKET button

 

 

 

for 2 seconds. The Tea Basket will rise to the top of the

 

 

 

Glass Jug (see Page 23, 'Moving the Tea Basket after the

 

 

 

Brewing Cycle').

 

 

3.

For brew times over 10 minutes

 

 

-

In this mode, once the correct water temperature is

 

 

 

reached, the Tea Basket will lower and commence

 

 

 

brewing. However, it will not automatically lift the Tea

 

 

 

Basket, allowing you to manually lift it once the desired

 

 

 

brew time has elapsed.

 

 

-

To select this feature, press and hold the BASKET button

 

 

 

for 2 seconds when the desired brew time has elapsed.

 

 

 

The Tea Basket will rise to the top of the Glass Jug (see

 

 

 

Page 21 'To Customize a Brew Time')

My tea tastes too weak

Tea taste is a personal preference and may require

or too strong

 

experimentation to get it to your liking. For stronger tasting

 

 

tea, increase the amount of tea or brew time (see Page 16

 

 

and 21). For a weaker tasting tea, decrease the amount of

 

 

tea (see page 16 and 21).

BTM800XL specifications

The Breville BTM800XL Tea Maker is a sophisticated yet user-friendly appliance designed for tea enthusiasts who crave precision and quality in their brews. Known for its innovative features and advanced technology, the BTM800XL elevates the tea-making experience to a whole new level.

One of the standout features of the BTM800XL is its adjustable brew temperature and steep time, allowing users to customize their tea to perfection. Different types of tea, from black to green and oolong, require specific temperatures for optimal flavor extraction. This tea maker offers a temperature range from 160°F to 212°F, ensuring that you can brew each type of tea precisely as intended.

The BTM800XL is equipped with a powerful heating system that heats water quickly and efficiently, ensuring you won't have to wait long for your tea. In addition to its speed, the machine features a unique “Automatic Keep Warm” function, which maintains the temperature of your brew for a designated period, making it convenient for those who like to savor multiple cups throughout the day.

Another notable feature is the integrated tea infuser, which is fully adjustable in terms of steeping time. This allows tea lovers to control how strong or mild their tea will be. The built-in timer signals when the brew cycle is complete, adding to the overall ease of use. The infuser is removable and easy to clean, promoting convenience post-tea session.

One of the key technological innovations in the BTM800XL is its “Tea Timer,” which tracks steep times for different tea varieties. Users can set their desired steeping duration, and the machine will alert them when it's time to stop the infusion, reducing the risk of bitterness due to over-steeping.

Constructed with high-quality materials, the BTM800XL has a sleek stainless-steel design that fits seamlessly into any kitchen. The durable glass jug allows you to monitor the brewing process visually, heightening the sensory experience of tea making.

In summary, the Breville BTM800XL Tea Maker combines advanced technology with ease-of-use features, making it an excellent choice for tea lovers.
