Programmable Function
This espresso machine offers a convenient choice between the Manual Operation or the intelligent Programmable Function that can be personalised with the user’s favourite espresso setting.
Espresso Pressure Gauge
The espresso pressure gauge assists in obtaining the most favourable extraction pressure, guiding the user to create their ideal espresso. This is achieved by measuring the pressure at which the water is being forced through the ground coffee in the fi lter holder.
White Zone - Ideal Espresso
The gauge needle when positioned within the recommended White Zone during pouring indicates that the espresso will be produced at the ideal pressure. The brewed espresso should have a generous layer of fi ne textured and evenly coloured golden crèma.
Green Zone - Under Extracted
The gauge needle when positioned within the
Green Zone during pouring indicates that the espresso will be produced with insuffi cient pressure resulting in an ‘under extracted’ espresso. This occurs when the water fl ow through the ground coffee in the fi lter is too fast. As a result the optimal fl avour will not be extracted and the coffee will be watery and lack thick créma on the top. Possible other causes for under extraction are: coffee grind is too coarse and/or insuffi cient coffee in fi lter and/or under tamping.
Red Zone - Over Extracted
The gauge needle when positioned within the Red Zone during pouring will indicate that the espresso will be produced with too much pressure resulting in an ‘over extracted’ espresso. This occurs when the water fl ow through the ground coffee in the fi lter is too slow. As a result the coffee will be very dark and bitter, with a mottled and uneven créma on top. Possible other causes for over extraction are: ground coffee is too fi ne and/or too much ground coffee in fi lter and/or over tamping.
Hot Water Wand
The dedicated hot water wand is ideal for making your favourite hot drinks. For convenient use the wand has a commercial style 360° ball joint.

When a single or double coffee is selected, the machine will pump water momentarily, followed by a pause then continues to pump the water through to the ground coffee in the fi lter holder. The ground coffee is moistened by a small amount of water before full extraction then expands resulting in greater pressure build-up to extract all the oils and full fl avour from the ground coffee.
HOW TO TEXTURE MILK FOR A CAPPUCCINO OR LATTÉ
The Breville Professional 800 Collection™
Programmable Espresso Machine comes complete with a Commercial Style Swivel
Steam Wand and Stainless Steel Frothing
Attachment. When using the frothing attachment on the steam wand a large amount of froth is easily created.
If less texture is required, remove the frothing attachment from the steam wand and steam the milk using the steam wand. To remove the frothing attachment, ensure it is cool then simply pull down and remove. The frothing attachment can be stored in the storage tray inside the machine if not used regularly.
To refi t the frothing attachment ensure it is securely attached to the steam wand by inserting it, from either opening, onto the steam wand and pushing fi rmly upwards onto the rubber surround. Ensure the fi ne steam holes on either end of the frothing attachment are clean to achieve optimal texturing.
• Press the POWER button to ‘On’.
• The fi rst step in making a cappuccino
or latté is to make a short espresso.
Refer to ‘Operating your Espresso
Machine’, pages 14-16.
• Then fi ll the stainless steel frothing jug
1 ⁄
3
full with cold, fresh milk.
• Turn the Selector Control to the ‘Steam’
position. The white steam light will start
to fl ash indicating that the Thermoblock
Heating System is heating and preparing
to create steam.
• For improved results, purge the steam
wand of water before placing into the
milk.
NOTE: When the espresso machine creates steam, a pumping noise can be heard. This is the normal operation of the 15 Bar pump.
• When the steam light stops fl ashing,
quickly insert the steam wand into the
jug of milk so that the froth attachment is
just immersed into the milk.
NOTE: If steam starts coming from the steam wand before it is immersed in the milk, pause the steam by turning the Selector Control back to the ‘Standby’ position. This will avoid the steam pressure blowing milk out of the jug.

20
HOW TO TEXTURE MILK FOR A CAPPUCCINO OR LATTÉ
• Hold the frothing jug at an angle so
that steam wand and/or the frothing
attachment sits just below the surface of
the heating milk and the steam will move
the milk around the inside of the jug in a
• When the milk starts to increase in
volume, immerse the steam wand and/
or frothing attachment deeper into the
jug to heat the milk.
• Hold the jug at an angle with one hand
and place your other hand on the outer
base of the stainless frothing jug.
• When the base of the jug becomes too
hot to touch, set the Selector Control
to the ‘Standby’ position, stopping
the steaming function before
removing the jug. A pumping noise will
sound for a short time, do not be
alarmed as there will be a fi ve second
delay prior to the machine carrying out
the Auto-purge function.
• Pour the steamed milk into each cup of
freshly brewed espresso coffee and
spoon in the frothing milk, in the

WARNING: MILK SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO RUN OVER THE TOP OF THE FROTHING
ATTACHMENT, OTHERWISE IT WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. TO AVOID
SPLATTERING OF HOT MILK, DO NOT LIFT THE END OF THE FROTHING ATTACHMENT
ABOVE THE SURFACE OF THE MILK WHILE FROTHING. ENSURE THE SELECTOR
CONTROL IS IN THE ‘STANDBY’ POSITION BEFORE REMOVING THE FROTHING JUG.
NOTE: After 5 minutes of continuous steaming, the machine will automatically disable the steam function. The steam and hot water lights will fl ash. When this occurs return the selector control to the
‘Standby’ position.
NOTE: Always ensure that the frothing attachment has been fi rmly pushed onto the steam wand and connects with the rubber surround. For best results use cold fresh milk (low fat milk will froth easier). Always clean the steam wand and frothing attachment after every use. Refer
to ‘Care and Cleaning’, page 24.
NOTE: For brewing more coffee immediately after using the steam function, this machine features an auto-purge function. This ensures that ground coffee will not be burnt by the initial water fl ow from the thermoblock being too hot. Instead this water is automatically released internally into the drip tray ensuring that the internal thermostat is at optimal temperature for extracting coffee. Your coffee will always be extracted at this optimal temperature ensuring only the best fl avoured coffee is achieved.
USING THE HOT WATER FUNCTION
The espresso machine features a separate hot water function that can be used for making tea, hot chocolate and other warm drinks. The hot water is dispensed from the dedicated Hot Water Wand.
Place a jug or cup underneath the Hot
Water Wand to collect the hot water.
To use the hot water function, turn the
Selector Control to HOT WATER. The hot water light will illuminate when selected.
To turn the hot water off, turn the Selector
Control to the ‘Standby’ position.
Limit the extraction of hot water to 2 litres each use.
The machine is not designed to make large pots of coffee and tea. The more hot water used at the one time, the cooler it becomes.
NOTE: After 2 minutes of continued hot water use, the machine will automatically disable the hot water function. The steam and hot water lights will fl ash. When this occurs return the selector to the ‘Standby’ position.

COFFEE MAKING TIPS
WARMING YOUR CUP OR GLASS
A warm cup will help maintain the coffee’s optimal temperature. Preheat your cup by storing on the cup warming tray or rinsing with hot water from the hot water wand.
WARMING THE FILTER HOLDER
A cold fi lter holder can drop the extraction temperature enough to signifi cantly affect the quality of your coffee. Always ensure the fi lter holder is preheated by running hot water through it before tamping it with coffee.
NOTE: Always wipe the fi lter and fi lter holder dry before tamping with ground coffee as moisture can encourage ‘drilling’ - this is when water bypasses the ground coffee during extraction.
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 fi ne but not too fi ne or powdery. The grind will effect the rate at which the water fl ows through the coffee in the fi lter and therefore the taste of the coffee.
If the grind is too fi ne (looks like powder and feels like fl our when rubbed between fi ngers), the water will not fl ow through the coffee even when under pressure. The resulting coffee will be over extracted, too dark and bitter, with a mottled and uneven créma on top.
If the grind is too coarse the water will fl ow through the coffee too quickly. This will result in an under-extracted coffee lacking in fl avour and without the thick créma on the top layer of coffee.
THE RIGHT MEASUREMENT
A single espresso is made with ¼ ounce or
7g of coffee. A level measure of the tamp/ spoon is the correct amount of coffee for a single espresso and 2 level measures for a double espresso. It is important to use the correct fi lter for the amount of coffee.
TAMPING CORRECTLY
Level the desired amount of coffee by gently tapping the side of the fi lter holder before pressing down fi rmly with the tamping end of the measuring spoon.
When packing for a double espresso it is important only to tamp after the second measure. Tamping between measures will create a layer in the coffee that can impede full extraction.
PURGE THE GROUP HEAD
Before inserting the fi lter holder, run some water through the group head. It will ensure that your machine has a last minute ‘clean through’ and stabilises the temperature prior to extracting.
NOTE: Make sure to wipe off any excess coffee from the rim of the fi lter to ensure a proper seal is achieved under the group head.
BREWING YOUR ESPRESSO
The most common mistake in brewing is to over extract from your ground coffee.
This results in a bitter beverage with visibly bleached crèma. Crèma is the caramel coloured layer that fl oats on top of the coffee following extraction.
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 fi neness of the grind and the tamping pressure (pressed down).
We recommend experimenting by varying these factors to achieve the coffee taste of your preference.

CARE AND CLEANING (continued)
DECALCIFYING
• After regular use, hard water can cause
mineral build up in and on many of the
inner functioning components, reducing
the brewing fl ow, power of the machine,
and affecting the quality of coffee.
• We advise decalcifying the machine on
a regular basis (every 2-3 months) using
a mixture of white vinegar and water.
Follow the instructions provided, or use
the following as a guide:
Diluted solution (for softer water)
• 1 part white vinegar
• 2 parts cold tap water
Concentrated solution (for harder water)
• 1 part white vinegar
• 1 part cold tap water
DECALCIFYING THE MACHINE
• Ensure the Selector Control is in the
‘Standby’ position, the POWER button
is in the ‘Off’ position and the machine
is switched off at the power outlet and
unplugged.
• Remove the fi lter holder and frothing
attachment. Pour the mixture of white
vinegar and water into the water tank.
• Plug the machine into the power outlet
and switch on.
• Press the POWER button to the ‘On’
position and turn the Selector Control to
the ‘Standby’ position.
• Place a large container under the group
head, steam wand and hot water wand.
• When the brewing temperature has
been reached all the button surrounds
on the Control Panel will illuminate.
Press and hold the single or double
cup button to commence manual pour.
Release the button once half the mixture
of white vinegar and water has run
through the group head.
• Set the Selector Control to the ‘STEAM’
position and allow steam to run through
the Steam Wand for approximately 2
minutes. Return the Selector Control
back to the ‘Standby’ position.
• Set the Selector Control to the ‘HOT
WATER’ position and allow the
remaining liquid to run through the hot
water wand. When the liquid stops
fl owing, set the Selector Control back to
• After decalcifying, remove the water tank
and rinse thoroughly then re-fi ll with
fresh cold water. To rinse the machine,
repeat previous steps.
WARNING: DO NOT IMMERSE CORD, PLUG OR APPLIANCE IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
