CARE AND CLEANING

Before cleaning, ensure the ‘Selector Control’ is in the ‘STANDBY’ position and press the ‘POWER’ button ‘Off’, then unplug the power cord and allow the unit to cool.

Cleaning The Steam Wand And Froth Enhancer

The steam wand and froth enhancer should always be cleaned after frothing milk.

If attached, remove the froth enhancer and rinse under warm tap water.

Soak the tip in hot water before using the pin on the cleaning tool to unblock. Replace the tip back onto the steam wand and secure with the cleaning tool.

Wipe the steam wand with a damp cloth, and then with the steam wand directed back into the drip tray, briefly set the ‘SELECTOR CONTROL’ to the ‘STEAM’ position. This will clear any remaining milk from inside the steam wand.

If the steam wand becomes blocked, wait for the machine to cool before using the ‘CLEANING TOOL’ to unblock the opening.

NOTE:

The 'Cleaning Tool' is located at the front of the machine under the left of the group head.

If the steam wand continues to be blocked, the tip of the steam wand can be removed by using the spanner in the middle of the cleaning tool.

Cleaning The Filters, Filter Holder And Brewing Head

The stainless steel filters and filter holder should be rinsed under water directly after use to remove all coffee particles. Should the fine holes in the filters become blocked; the fine pin on the cleaning tol can be used to clear the holes.

The group head interior should be wiped with a damp cloth to remove any ground coffee particles.

Periodically run water through the machine with the filter holder in place, but without any ground coffee, to rinse out any residual coffee particles.

BES250XL specifications

The Breville BES250XL, also known as the Infuser Espresso Machine, stands out as a versatile and efficient tool for coffee enthusiasts and baristas alike. With a sleek design and an array of sophisticated features, this machine is crafted to deliver a café-quality espresso experience right in the comfort of your home.

One of the defining characteristics of the BES250XL is its precise temperature control system. The machine employs a digital PID temperature control, which ensures that the water is consistently heated to the ideal extraction temperature. This is vital for achieving the rich flavors and aromas that characterize a perfect espresso shot. With the ability to maintain stability and precision, users can enjoy optimal extraction results, whether they prefer lighter or more robust coffee profiles.

Another noteworthy feature of the Breville Infuser is its 15-bar Italian pump. This powerful pump creates the necessary pressure to extract espresso from the coffee grounds effectively. Coupled with the pre-infusion function, the BES250XL gradually increases the pressure at the beginning of the extraction process. This pre-soaking allows for a more even saturation of the coffee grounds, enhancing the overall flavor and consistency of each cup.

The machine also boasts a generous water tank capacity of 61 ounces, which is removable for easy filling and cleaning. This feature allows users to brew multiple shots of espresso without frequent refills. Additionally, the BES250XL is equipped with a 360-degree swivel steam wand, perfect for frothing milk for lattes and cappuccinos. The steam wand creates microfoam, achieving the velvety consistency that every coffee lover craves.

From a design perspective, the Breville BES250XL is both aesthetically pleasing and functional. Its polished stainless steel housing not only adds a modern touch to any kitchen but also ensures durability. The intuitive control panel includes an easy-to-read LCD screen that provides essential information about the brewing process and allows for user-friendly operation.
