OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT

GRINDER OVERVIEW

Your Dose Control™ Pro 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.

The grind amount (dose) for all coffee types is
controlled by an electronic timer. The dose for
each brew method can be adjusted by rotating
the GRIND TIME dial and changing the time
the grinder will run. 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 because
each method requires different grind sizes for
optimum extraction. Experiment with different
grind size settings until you achieve the brew
that best suits your taste.

Rotating the Bean Hopper will turn the Grind
Size Collar to adjust grind size.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove and safe ly discard all promotiona l
labels and packing materia ls attached to your
Brevil le product. Wash hopper, and cradles in
warm soapy w ater and dry thoroughly. Wipe
exterior of grinder with a s oft damp cloth and
dry thor oughly. Place grinder on fl at level
surface a nd plug power cord into a 12 0V

into position, the GRIND TIME dial will

holding the hopper and turning the Dial
anti-clockwise and lifting hopper to remove.
The locking system allows you to remove
and transfer beans in the hopper to a storage
container safely.

Refer to the Coffee Chart on page 14 as a
