Temp° IQ Shot Control™
Optimum temperature
The Temp° IQ Shot Control™ is an
exclusive technology developed by Breville
for your Barista Max. This 3 way system
delivers the accurate & stable water
temperature that is needed for consistently
great tasting coffee.
• Thermoblock Technology
The Thermoblock ensures fast heat
up, and precise water temperature for
the best espresso extraction & milk
steaming. Only the required amount
of water is heated for speed and
effi ciency. The Thermoblock heats
water so that espresso extracts at 92°C
for the optimum extraction of oils from
the tamped coffee grinds. Temperatures
above or below will result in burnt/bitter
or weak tasting espresso.
• Advanced PID Controller
The PID monitors and controls the
Thermoblock to ensure water is always
delivered to tamped coffee grinds at the
precise temperature needed.
• Gentle Pre-infusion
Small amounts of water are gently
introduced onto the tamped coffee
grinds prior to the steady fl ow of water,
for a richer fl avoured espresso. (For
different Pre-infusion profi les, see page
23)
Café 58mm
Group Head & Handle
Extract the maximum amount of flavour
The Group Head and the Group Handle
are commercial sized, 58mm, just like local
café.
• The wider size ensures the coffee
grinds are more evenly spread in the
Filter Baskets. The coffee grinds are
easier to fi ll, tamp and remove after
use.
• The 58mm Group Handle allows a more
even extraction of the tamped coffee
grinds, resulting in a true café tasting
coffee.
Tap&Go™
Integrated Grinder
Easy on-demand grinding
experience
• Tap&Go™ Technology
The Tap&Go™ on-demand grinding
technology developed by Breville
delivers coffee grinds directly into the
Group Handle with one touch. Simply
push down on the Group Handle to
activate the Grinder.
• Conical Burr Grinder
The integrated Grinder offers all-in-one
grinding experience. The hardened
Stainless Steel Conical Burr achieves
consistent grind particle sizes, which
minimises heat transfer & reduces
friction due to its gentle & slow rotation.
• Bean Hopper
The 250g Hopper features anti-spill
gates which prevents coffee beans
from escaping onto the benchtop when
removing. The on-board Grinder offers
all-in-one grinding experience with
Grinder integrated in the Espresso
Machine.
Auto Shot & Customisable
Volumetric Control
Right quantity of espresso in your cup
• Auto Shot is the easiest way to create
a great espresso. Press the ONE or
TWO CUP BUTTONS to pour the right
amount.
• All Extraction Buttons can be

1. Coffee Beans
For optimum flavour & extraction:
- Buy freshly roasted coffee beans in small
250g batches to reduce the storage time.
- Use within two weeks of opening.
- Store coffee beans in a dry, airtight
container. Place in a cool dark cupboard.
Important: Old coffee beans, no matter the
Grind Setting, will have a fast extraction
and will produce an under extracted tasting
espresso.
2. Grind Setting
You may need to vary the Grind Setting
when using different coffee beans and
depending on bean freshness. The range
of 30 Grind Settings allows for precision
adjustment, controlling the grind size
& ultimately the characteristics of the
resulting extraction.
It may take several incremental
adjustments before you reach your
optimum Grind Setting. Dial in Grind
Setting based on pour time & taste see
Espresso Extraction Guide.
Barista Tip:
After adjusting the Grind Setting it is
important to purge (for 1-2 sec) a small
amount of coffee grinds from the Grinder.
This removes the coffee grinds of the
previous Grind Setting; ensuring the next
espresso extraction is made entirely of the
coffee grinds from the new Grind Setting.
- Smaller number settings deliver finer
coffee grinds & a slower extraction.
- Larger number settings deliver coarser
coffee grinds & a faster extraction.
3. Filter Baskets
• Single Wall Filter Baskets
These work with freshly ground coffee
grinds and are supplied with the Barista
Max.
Note: Pre-ground coffee grinds are too
coarse to use with Single Wall Filter
Baskets.
• Dual Wall Filter Baskets
These work best with pre-ground coffee
grinds, but can also be used for freshly
ground coffee grinds.
These are available for purchase from
Breville. Details are on the back page.
4. Grind Dosage & Tamp Force
For best results, the amount of coffee
grinds used should remain consistent.
Note: It is normal for the correct dose of
coffee grinds to appear overfilled in the
Filter Basket before tamping.
Evenly tamp (press) coffee grinds to the
level indicated, with firm force 10-15kg.

The way the espresso pours will tell you
everything.
1. Extraction Time
Extraction time is a good indicator of the
quality of the pour. The optimum time per
shot varies between types & freshness of
coffee beans. However, in general, the pour
time should be between 20-30 seconds for
both One & Two Cup shots.
2. Type of Extraction
• Optimum Extraction
A quality pour has a steady fl ow with
a consistency similar to that of warm
honey. The resulting crema is dark
golden. The sweetest fl avours & oils
have been extracted creating a rich
tasting espresso.
• Under Extraction
The pour is fast & light in colour, the
resulting crema is thin with a creamy
light brown colour which quickly
dissipates. This occurs when too little
of the essential oils, fl avours & colours
from the coffee grinds have been
extracted. This creates a sour tasting
espresso.
• Over Extraction
There may be no pour, or it may be
slow & drip throughout the entire pour.
The resulting crema is very dark. This
occurs when too much of the essential
oils, fl avours & colours from the coffee
grinds have been extracted. This
creates a bitter tasting espresso.
3. Look for Colour Change
The optimum shot contains 3 elements:
Heart: At the base - starts out dark
brown.
Body: Blends with the heart - becomes a
rich caramel with reddish reflections.
Crema: The layer on top of the body -
dark golden.

Milk texturing is the steaming of milk.
Key Elements of Textured Milk
Milk that has been textured correctly has
a thick, rich microfoam with a silky sheen.
Texturing involves both heating and
aerating milk using steam. Vital elements
include positioning of the Steam Wand,
when to adjust the Milk Jug position and
reaching the correct temperature. Use the
below steps to help you create café-style
microfoam.
1. Fill Milk Jug
Add cold milk around 4°C into a chilled
clean Stainless Steel Jug.
Fill to the bottom of the spout.
Note: The volume of milk will increase or
’stretch’ during texturing, so don’t overfill
the Jug.
A larger capacity Milk Jug is available for
purchase from Breville. Details are on the
back page.
2. Steam Warm Up
Turn DIAL to
. For best milk texturing
results every time, allow steam to heat up.
Steam is ready when LIGHT is fully ON.
You will also hear the Pump start. Pause
steam by returning DIAL to the vertical
position.
3. Position
Place the Steam Wand Arm in the Jug spout
at the 12 o'clock position, with the Steam
Wand Tip in the milk at the 3 o'clock position,
a finger width away from the edge of the
Jug. Keep Steam Wand Tip just under the
surface of the milk. Turn DIAL back to
position to start texturing. A whirlpool action
should be created in the Jug.
4. Sound
How air is introduced to the milk
determines the consistency of the foam.
If large gulps of air are added to the
milk, the foam will have large bubbles.
Introducing air to the milk in a controlled,
gentle fashion indicated by a gentle hissing
sound, will ensure the milk has fine aerated
microfoam.
Barista Tip: Milk Texturing Sounds
• Gurgling - Tip not deep enough, raise Jug.
• Smooth Hissing - Just right for latte.
• Screeching - Tip too deep, lower Jug.
5. Keeping Steam Tip Position
As the steam heats & textures the milk,
the milk will stretch causing the level of
the milk in the Jug to rise. As this happens
follow the level of the milk by lowering the
Jug, keeping the Steam Wand Tip just
below the surface.
Note: Some adjustments to technique will
be required when using non-dairy milk.

6. Amount of Foam
Create the amount of microfoam you
want. Cappuccinos traditionally have more
microfoam than flat whites.
(See Coffee Styles to Try, pages 18-19)
7. Immerse Tip
After creating the desired amount of foam,
immerse the Steam Wand half depth way
into the milk. This heats all the milk and
pulls in milk instead of air. This ensures the
milk & foam are blended together, making it
denser & smoother.
8. Correct Temperature
An indication of reaching correct milk
temperature is when the Milk Jug base
can only be touched comfortably for
approximately 3 seconds.
Barista Tip: Milk Temperature
• Under - If not heated long enough, it will
be warm with little texture.
• Optimum - See below table.
• Over - If heated for too long it will start to
boil around 72°C and will have a burnt
taste with all texture lost.
Note: Above recommendations might
vary from one milk brand to another and
depending on your taste preference.
9. Purging the Steam Wand
When correct milk temperature has been
reached, turn the DIAL to the vertical
position and remove the Jug from the
Steam Wand. Place Milk Jug to one side.
Place the Steam Wand over the Drip
Tray. Turn the DIAL to the
position for a
few seconds, then return the DIAL to the
vertical position. This will remove any milk
that has been sucked into the Steam Wand
Tip.
10. Wipe Steam Wand
Wipe the Steam Wand Arm & Tip with
a clean damp cloth to remove any milk
residue.
11. Tap & Swirl the Jug
Gently tapping the Jug on the benchtop
helps to release larger trapped air bubbles.
Swirling helps the milk & froth to combine
for an even consistency & a silky
appearance.
12. The Finishing Touches
Pour from the Milk Jug into your cup in one
steady motion.

reduce the life of the Silicone Seal.
Over time this Seal loses its elasticity and
may require replacement. The seal may
need replacing when watery espresso
leaks from around the Group Handle during
extraction, or if the Group Handle is loose
when fully turned to the centre position.
Note: Contact Breville should you think
that the Group Head Seal needs replacing.

Adjusting Bottom Burr
The Conical Burrs are made of hardened
Stainless Steel for extra-long life. However,
after prolonged use, the Bottom Burr may
require adjustment to compensate for wear.
If the coffee grinds are too coarse when the
Grind Setting is below 2 and the espresso
is consistently under extracted, the Bottom
Burr may need adjusting.
Contact Breville (details are on the back
page) should you think that the Bottom Burr
needs adjustment.
Prior to contacting Breville Customer Care,
please ensure that you are using freshly
roasted beans and that the Top Burr is
seated correctly.
Important: Old coffee beans, no matter the
Grind Setting, will have a fast extraction
and will produce an under extracted tasting
espresso.
Important: If the Top Burr is not seated
correctly the Grinder will produce coarse
coffee grinds. Grind off excess coffee
beans and clean the Top Burr & Grind
Chamber.
Note: Breville Customer Care may
determine that Bottom Burr adjustment
shims are required. Do not attempt to add
shims without first consulting Breville.
