WhAt to do
Use slightly finer grind.
Increase dose of coffee. Tamp
then use the Razor™ dose
trimming tool to trim off
excess coffee.
Tamp between 30-40lbs
or 15-20kg of pressure.
If the above suggestions do
not help, check the machine.
Place an EMPTY Dual Wall
filter basket into the portafilter
(either 1 CUP or 2 CUP). Press
the MANUAL button. If the
pressure gauge reads over
5 bar, the machine is working

below 5 bar, call Breville
Consumer Support.
