Balanced flavors are evenly extracted from all the coffee grinds. Instead of starting with sudden high - pressure bursts, a gentle low - pressure pre - infusion expands the grinds before ramping up to high pressure for a perfect extraction. The Electronic PID temperature control ensures stable temperature, resulting in a better - tasting cup, and its 1600W power provides high - pressure steam and fast heat - up. The programmable pour, or semi - automatic function, lets you control the espresso volume easily with just a button press. You can set it to 30ml for a single shot and 60ml for a double, and adjust as needed. With both a Thermoblock and a Thermocoil, cold water passes through a heated metal block pathway, designed to maintain a consistent temperature for optimal espresso. The Thermocoil has a Stainless Steel tube inside the metal. Extracting coffee with water over 92 - 94°C can lead to a bitter or burnt taste. The Auto Purge feature, only needed for Thermoblock or Thermocoil machines, flushes the over - heated water back to the ideal espresso extraction temperature.
Using your Breville BES840BSS The Infuser Espresso Machine is a breeze. First, fill the 1.8 - liter water tank with fresh water. You can turn on the machine and wait for it to heat up. Thanks to the 1600 - watt Thermocoil heating system, it won't take long. When it's ready, add your coffee grinds to the portafilter. The machine uses a gentle low - pressure pre - infusion to expand the grinds before going to high pressure for extraction. If you want a single or double shot, use the programmable pour function by pressing the button to set the volume. The 360 - degree swivel steam wand is great for steaming milk. Just position it in the milk container and start the steam. For maintenance, pay attention to the cleaning alert. When it goes off, clean the machine as instructed in the manual. Also, use the Auto Purge feature regularly to keep the water at the right temperature for extraction. Don't use water that's too hot, as it can make your coffee taste bitter. Always use fresh coffee grinds for the best flavor. And make sure the machine is plugged into a 110 - 120 - volt power source.
