GRINDER OVERVIEW

Your Dose Control™ uses hardened stainless steel Conical Burrs and can grind whole bean coffee suitable for a range of brewing methods, from the finest setting for Espresso to the coarsest setting for French

Press. You can grind directly into a Portafilter, Container or Drip Coffee filter basket.

Within each brew method, Espresso, Percolator, Drip or French Press, there is a range of grind size settings; the grind settings will differ between each brew method. This is due to each method requiring different grind sizes for optimum extraction. Experiment with different grind size settings by rotating the GRIND SIZE COLLAR to achieve the brew that best suits your taste.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Before first use, remove and safely discard all promotional labels and packing materials attached to your Breville product. Wash hopper, cradles and cleaning brush in warm

soapy water and dry thoroughly. Wipe exterior of grinder with a soft damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Place grinder on flat level surface and plug power cord into a 120V outlet.

ASSEMBLING YOUR BREVILLE DOSE CONTROL™

Bean Hopper

Rotate the Grind Size Collar to setting 60. Align tabs on the base of the bean hopper and insert hopper into position.

Fill with fresh coffee beans and secure lid on top of bean hopper.

The bean hopper can be removed by:

1.Rotating the Grind Size Collar to setting 60.

2.Holding the Grind Size Collar in one hand and turn the Hopper anti-clockwise to remove.

NOTE

Removing the hopper lid to hold the hopper can facilitate removing the hopper.

GRINDING FOR ESPRESSO COFFEE

Step 2:

Grind Amount

Press the START|CANCEL button to start grinding operation. Once you have the right amount of ground coffee in your portafilter, press the START|CANCEL button again

to stop operation. It’s normal for the correct amount of coffee to appear overfilled in your portafilter. Untamped coffee is approximately three times the volume of tamped coffee.

Step 3:

Tamping the Ground Coffee

After dosing the Portafilter with freshly ground coffee, tamp down with between 30-40lbs or 15-20kg of pressure. The amount of pressure is not as important as consistent pressure every time.

Step 4:

Trimming the Dose

The adjustable Razor™ Dose Trimming Tool allows you to trim the puck to the right level for a consistent extraction.

Select the correct width blade of the Razor™ to match the diameter of your filter basket.

The Razor™ has three blades of varying widths: 58mm, 54mm and 50mm. The 58mm and 54mm are already fitted within the Razor™ body. The 50mm is separate.

Insert the 50mm blade into the body. Wind the Adjustable Dial until the blade is

retracted past #4. Press the 50mm and 58mm blades at the same time, towards the center of the body until a “click” sound can be heard.
