Breville Smart Grinder Espresso Pack

To begin with, we suggest selecting setting 15 on the Smart Grinder Pro, for espresso, and then fine-tuning the grind to your liking by adjusting it either finer or coarser. Try not to get too hung up on the grind setting number however, as every grinder is different. Just ask yourself “Do I need to go finer to slow down my extraction or coarser to speed up my extraction?” You can find the grind dial at the centre of the machine, which can be turned clockwise to achieve a finer grind or counterclockwise to create a coarser grind. This feature allows you to easily personalise your coffee experience to achieve the perfect grind for your preferred brewing method.

The frequency of cleaning will depend on how frequently you use the grinder and the type of beans you use.

For daily use, it is recommended to wipe the grinder's exterior with a damp cloth to remove any coffee grinds or dust. Additionally, the bean hopper and the grind container should be emptied and washed with warm soapy water once a week. The burrs and grinding chamber should also be cleaned periodically to remove any coffee buildup or oil.

Using the Breville Smart Grinder Pro is a simple and straightforward process. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Fill the Bean Hopper: First, fill the bean hopper with your desired amount of coffee beans. Make sure the hopper lid is securely in place.
2. Select the Grind Setting: Use the LCD screen and the grind settings dial to select your desired grind setting. The Smart Grinder Pro has 60 different grind settings, so choose the one that best suits your brewing method and personal taste preferences.
3. Set the Grind Time: Use the Precision Digital Time (Dosing IQ) feature to adjust the grind time in 0.2-second increments. The grinder will automatically stop when it reaches the programmed grind time.
4. Choose the Grinding Method: Select your preferred grinding method - grind directly into the portafilter, an airtight container, gold tone filter basket, or paper filter.
5. Grind the Coffee: Press the start button to begin the grinding process. The coffee grinder will automatically stop once it has ground the programmed amount of coffee.
6. Enjoy Your Coffee: Your perfectly ground coffee is now ready to be brewed and enjoyed!

It's important to note that the specific steps for using the Breville Smart Grinder Pro may vary slightly depending on the model and personal preference, so be sure to refer to the user manual for more detailed instructions.
