The Hot Water button surround will illuminate when selected. If the machine remains switched ‘On’, the last button function used will stay illuminated. To change to the steam function, simply press the Steam button so that the steam light surround illuminates and turn the Selector Control to the ‘Steam’ position. Refer to Steam Button/Hot Water Button information on Page 20. Place a jug or cup underneath the Steam Wand to collect the hot water. To turn the hot water off, turn the Selector Control to the ‘Standby’ position. Limit the extraction of hot water to 2 quarts (2 liters) each use. The machine is not designed to make whole pots of coffee and tea. The more the amount of water is extracted the cooler it becomes. COffEE MAKING TIPS Making a good cup of coffee is an art that is simple to achieve. Here are some tips to help you make the perfect coffee. The Coffee Pre-ground coffee can be used and should be stored in an air-tight container, in a cool, dry area. Pre-ground coffee should not be kept for longer than 1 week as flavor will diminish. Do not refrigerate or freeze. Whole coffee beans, freshly ground just before use, are recommended. Coffee beans should be stored in an air-tight container, in a cool, dry area but should not be kept for longer than 1 month as flavor will diminish. Do not refrigerate or freeze. Water flow When brewing coffee, make sure the water flows through the Coffee Filter at the correct rate. If the water flow is too slow the coffee will be over extracted and will be very dark and bitter, with a mottled and uneven crema on top. If the water flow is too fast, the coffee will be under extracted – the optimal flavor will not develop, the coffee will be watery and lack the thick crema on the top. The water flow can be adjusted by varying the pressure that the coffee is tamped (pressed down) in the Filter or by changing the grind of the coffee. OPERATING yOUR BREvILLE dUO TEMP™ ESPRESSO MACHINE OPERATING yOUR BREvILLE dUO TEMP™ ESPRESSO MACHINE The Grind If using a pre-ground coffee, ensure an espresso grind suitable for espresso/ cappuccino machines is purchased. If grinding coffee beans, the grind should be fine but not too fine or powdery. The grind will affect the rate at which the water flows through the coffee in the Filter and therefore the taste of the coffee. If the grind is too fine (looks like powder and feels like flour when rubbed between fingers), the water will not flow through the coffee even when under pressure. The resulting coffee will be over extracted, too dark and bitter, with a mottled and uneven crema on top. If the grind is too coarse the water will flow through the coffee too quickly. This will result in an under-extracted coffee lacking in flavor and without the thick crema on the top layer of coffee. Tamping The Coffee After measuring the ground coffee into the Filter it must be tamped (pressed down) using the flat end of the measuring spoon. The ground coffee should be tamped quite firmly. If the coffee is not tamped firmly enough, the water will flow through the water too quickly and the coffee will be under extracted. If the coffee is tamped too firmly, however, the water will flow through the coffee too slowly and the coffee will be over extracted. NOTE The taste of your coffee will, of course, depend on personal preference and on many other factors such as the type of coffee bean used, the coarseness or fineness of the grind and the tamping pressure (pressed down). We recommend experimenting by varying these factors to achieve the coffee taste of your preference. 23 23 CARE & CLEANING for your Breville Duo-Temp™ espresso machine CARE & CLEANING CARE & CLEANING CLEANING THE STEAM WANd ANd fROTHING ATTACHMENT • The Steam Wand and Frothing Attachment should always be cleaned after frothing milk. • Remove the Frothing Attachment and rinse in warm tap water. Ensure the two fine steam holes on either end of the Frothing Attachment are clear. Use the pin on the Cleaning Tool to unblock these holes. • Wipe the Steam Wand with a damp cloth, then with the Steam Wand directed back into the drip tray, briefly set the Selector Control to the ‘Steam’ position and press the Hot Water button. This will clear any remaining milk from inside the Steam Wand. • Ensure the Selector Control is in the ‘Standby’ position. Press the ‘ON/OFF’ button to ‘OFF’, unplug the power cord and allow the machine to cool. • If the Steam Wand remains blocked, use the pin on the Cleaning Tool to clear the opening. • 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. •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.
