Espresso:
Why isn't espresso coming out of my machine?
You are probably using espresso that is too finely ground. Try setting your grinder to a larger grind setting to get a coarser grind of espresso. Use the "pin end" of the custom
cleaning tool to clean the small hole in the bottom of the filter. If
the problem continues, contact Breville support:

Why won't my espresso machine turn on?
Unplug the machine and then plug it back in. Remove the water tank and replace
it. If the problem continues, contact Breville support:

Why does my espresso taste burnt?
This can happen for a couple of different reasons:
- You are over-extracting the espresso -- a single shot of espresso is 1 ounce (30ml), a double shot is 2 ounces (60ml), and a pod produces 1 ounce (30ml).
- You are using beans that were burnt by the roaster. This often happens with coffees classified as dark or French and Italian roasts. Try a lighter blend like Caffè Verona® from Starbucks™.
Why does my espresso taste weak?
You are probably using too coarse a grind -- make sure you grind, or request
a grind, of medium-fine for espresso. Never use a grind intended for
drip coffee. If you are using pods, only use E.S.E pods intended for espresso;
we recommend illy™ and Starbucks™. Each E.S.E. serving contains
7 grams of coffee, the exact amount needed for a 1-ounce shot of espresso.
How hot should the espresso be when it reaches my cup or mug?
It should be between 158°F and 187°F (70°C and 86°C).
Why is the coffee in the filter wet and soppy after extraction?
The dual wall filters create back pressure by forcing brewed espresso through
the small holes in the upper layer of the filter and then through the small hole
in the bottom layer of the filter (in addition to using barometric pressure
from the pump), which helps create a thick, rich crema. Since the
water is forced through the filter and then remains on top of the ground coffee
in the filter, it's normal to see wet coffee grounds after extraction. This process is how Breville espresso machines
deliver more crema than other machines.
What kind of pods do you recommend?
Only use E.S.E pods intended for espresso; we recommend illy™ and Starbucks™.
Each E.S.E. serving contains 7 grams of coffee, the exact amount needed
for a 1-ounce shot of espresso.

Why doesn't my ESP8XL Café Roma have the froth enhancer
shown on the packaging and manual?
The froth enhancer featured on the packaging and mentioned in the instruction
manual is no longer included on the ESP8XL Café Roma. As part of its product upgrade, the new ESP8XL Café Roma model now features a sliding steam
wand with an exclusive finger loop to allow for more freedom while steaming.
Frothing milk is just as easy with the new product upgrade. Just fill your pitcher ⅓ of the way full with COLD milk (preferably 1% or 2% milk) and hold the tip of the wand just below the surface. You will start to hear a hissing sound once the wand is in the ideal location or a squeaking sound if it's in too deep. Position the wand off-center to create a rapid circular motion and maintain the hissing sound and position until you get the desired amount of foam. If you just want to steam the milk, then position the steam wand deeper in the milk.
Juicing:
Why won't my Breville juicer turn on?
Try unplugging the machine and plugging it back in. If the problem continues, contact
Breville support:

What parts on my juicer or citrus press are dishwasher safe?
All juicer parts, with the exception of the base that plugs in, can be washed in
the top rack of the dishwasher.
Why is my juicer leaking from the pulp chute
to the pulp container?
To simplify cleanup we recommend lining the pulp container with a plastic
grocery bag or produce bag. This provides a little extra seal and makes
cleaning up a cinch.
Why is the top layer of juice foamy?
The high yield filter causes a bit of foam on top of the juice, but the
froth separator on the juice jug should skim it off. There is no loss
of healthful enzymes if you don't drink the foam; they are active in the
juice.
Can you extract juice from wheat grass?
No, you need a single gear, or masticating, juicer. Masticating juicers use a single gear
or auger that can literally chew up fruit and vegetable fibers.
Grilling and Cooking:
Are the non-stick coatings on Breville products safe?
Since the introduction of non-stick coating in the mid-1950s, literally
billions of pieces of cookware finished with non-stick coating have been
used throughout the world with complete safety. We know of no illness
or health problem that has been documented as being caused by the use
of non-stick cookware.
The potential smoke and fume hazards associated with the non-stick coating on Breville appliances could only occur at temperatures above 715°F (380°C), however, the heating element in Breville appliances operates between 300°F and 450°F (150°C to 230°C). Thus, from a consumer standpoint, the thermal degradation of the non-stick coating necessary to cause fumes is impossible. If you have further questions please contact Breville support:

What is the best way to clean my Breville grill?
We recommend that you use a paper towel or dish cloth to wipe down
and clean between the ribs on the cooking plates. If you clean while
the grill is warm to the touch, cleanup will be easier. Using lemon juice
as an agent to clean the grill will make cleaning even smoother.
