Operating

BEFORE FIRST USE

BEFORE FIRST USE

• Before using the YouBrew® for the first time, ensure you have unpacked all parts and accessories before removing and safely discarding all packaging material and promotional labels. Ensure the power cord is unplugged from the power outlet.
• Wipe the exterior stainless steel housing with a soft, damp cloth. Wash the bean hopper and lid, coffee basket, gold tone filter and carafe in warm, soapy water and a soft cloth.Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths which can scratch the surface. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

INITIAL SET UP

1. Install the Bean Hopper
   Position the hopper onto the machine. Tum the locking knob clockwise in the direction of the LOCK arrow until it clicks. Fill the hopper with fresh beans. We recommend always keeping the hopper full (0.5lb maximum) to ensure there are sufficient beans. However, never over-pack the hopper as this may result in the grinder jamming. Replace the hopper lid.
   NOTE: For easy removal, storage and transfer of beans, the hopper can be removed by turning the locking knob counter-clockwise in the direction of the UNLOCK arrow. If you have removed the hopper, ensure it is securely reassembled back onto the machine. The safety interlock system will prevent operation if the hopper is incorrectly assembled. TheLCD screen will flash 'LOCK BEAN HOPPER' until the issue is resolved.
2. Plug in the Power Cord
   Unwind the power cord completely and insert the power plug into a grounded 110-120V power outlet. Press the POWER button. The LCD screen will illuminate.
   NOTE: The coffee machine will enter POWER SAVE mode after remaining idle for 10 minutes. Press the POWER button to exit POWER SAVE mode and re-start the machine.
3. Install the Coffee Basket
   For best results, we recommend pre-heating the coffee basket by running it under hot tap water. Ensure to dry the coffee basket thoroughly, taking particular care to completely dry the chute area. Line the coffee basket with either the provided gold tone filter or a paper filter. Never use both at the same time.
   a) Provided gold tone filter. When using the gold tone filter, be sure that the handle is positioned towards the hinge area of the coffee basket. If you do not, the handle may interfere with the flow of ground coffee into the gold tone filter.
   
   NOTE: The gold tone filter will allow some fine coffee grounds to fall into the coffee. This will appear as sediment in the cup or carafe. This is normal. Only use the gold tone filter provided as others may cause the machine to overflow.
   b) Paper filter (8-12 cup, flat base basket style with - 3%/8.25cm base). Ensure that the paper filter is completely open and touching the side walls and bottom of the coffee basket.

Close the coffee basket lid. Press the OPEN button to open the swing-out door. Attach the coffee basket to the swing-outdoor by ensuring the hinge area of the coffee basket is firmly seated in its most downward position on the two door hooks. Close the door until it clicks shut.

NOTE: The safety interlock system will prevent operation if the coffee basket is not in place, if it is not firmly seated on the two door hooks, or if the swing-out door is not closed. The LCD screen will flash 'EMPTY COFFEE FILTER' until the issues are resolved.

USING THE YOUBREW® - CARAFE MODE

First Time Use Only

We recommend flushing the machine to remove any dust particles or residues from the manufacturing process. Follow the proceeding instructions, ensuring to completely fill the water tank (Step 1), select '12 CUPS' (Step 3) and the 'PRE-GROUND' coffee setting (Step 4). However do not add any coffee to the coffee basket. Once the cycle is complete, discard the water from the carafe and repeat the cycle again for best results. The machine is now ready to use.

CAUTION: We recommend using cold, filtered water. We do not recommend the use of de-mineralized or distilled water as this may affect the taste of brewed coffee and how the coffee machine is designed to function.

1. Fill the Water Tank
   Press open the flip-top lid. Pour the desired amount of cold, preferably filtered water into the tank using a jug or the provided carafe. If using the carafe, ensure the carafe lid is securely locked in place. The LCD screen will indicate the amount of water in the tankas it is filled. The machine will beep when full and the water level float will rise to indicate the maximum level. Do not exceed the 12 cup maximum. Doing so may cause the carafe to overflow or water spillage at the back of the machine.Close the flip-top lid.
   NOTE: Check the water level on the LCD screen before use. We recommend always keeping the water tank full. The water tank should be refilled with cold, preferably filtered water. Do not fill with any other liquid.
   NOTE: Never pour water into the bean hopper or grinding chamber area. Doing so can cause the grinder to clog. Only re-commence use when the grinding chamber and grinding burrs are completely dry. Refer toTroubleshooting, 'Moisture clogging grinder', page 29.
   NOTE: Never fill the water tank once the coffee machine has started a brewing cycle. This will affect the volume dispensed into the carafe.
2. Pre-Warm the Carafe
   A warm carafe will help maintain the coffee's optimal temperature and keep coffee hotter for longer. Remove the carafe lid by turning counter - clockwise then lifting upwards. Fill the carafe with hot water for about 30 seconds then discard the water. To lock the carafe lid back into position, align the arrow on the carafe lid with the ALIGN arrow on the carafe. Turn clockwise until the arrow on the carafe lid aligns with the LOCK arrow on the carafe. This ensures that the lid is closed and in the proper position for brewing and pouring. Place the carafe into position under the drip stop outlet.
   
   NOTE: Ensure the carafe is completely empty and the lid is securely locked in place before placing under the drip stop outlet. Starting a brew cycle with water or coffee in the carafe will cause the carafe to over flow.
3. Select 'Carafe' Mode
   Press the CARAFE button. The LCD screen will display a carafe symbol and the current number of cups selected. Continue pressing the CARAFE button to select the desired number of cups. You can choose less than the current tank level (2 cup minimum), while the maximum is the amount of water in the tank, up to 12 cups. Each cup is approximately 5 fl.oz.
4. Select the Brew Strength or 'PRE-GROUND' Coffee Setting
   Press the STRENGTH button. The LCD screen will flash the current strength setting and the and buttons will illuminate and flash. Use these buttons to cycle through 7 strength settings from 'MILD', 'STRONG' to 'INTENSE' or for the 'PRE-GROUND' coffee setting. When the 'INTENSE' strength setting is selected, the maximum number of cups that can be brewed is 9 cups. This ensures the maximum coffee to water ratio.
   Press the STRENGTH button to select. The LCD screen will cease to flash once selected.
   NOTE: If using pre-ground coffee, select the 'PRE-GROUND' coffee setting. This will disable the burr grinder. Add pre-ground coffee to the gold tone filter or a paper filter (8-12 cup, flat base basket style with - 3%"/8.25 cm base). We recommend 1 level tablespoon of pre-ground coffee per 5oz/150ml cup of water. Adjust the amount according to your individual taste. The maximum capacity for pre-ground coffee is 16 level tablespoons. Exceeding this amount may cause overflow.
   When using the machine for the first time, we recommend selecting the 'PRE-GROUND' coffee setting, however omitting the addition of pre-ground coffee. This will flush the machine and remove any dust particles or residues from the manufacturing process.
5. Start the Brew Cycle
   Press the START | CANCEL button. The grinder will commence grinding the correct amount of coffee for the selected brew size and strength. If the 'PRE-GROUND' coffee setting has been selected, the grinder will be disabled.
   NOTE: Steam may emit from the rear steam vent during grinding and brewing. This is normal.
   The count-down timer will then begin. The time displayed is an estimate only and will depend on the amount and strength settings you have selected.
   The LCD screen will display:
   a) 'PRE-HEATING' as the water is heated to the optimal temperature. The pre-heating time will depend on the starting temperature of the water in the water tank.
   b) 'BREWING' as the coffee is dispensed into the carafe.
   To stop the cycle at any time, press the START | CANCEL button. You will hear a winding noise. This is normal.
   CAUTION: Never open the swing-out door and remove the coffee basket while brewing. Hot water and coffee can cause injury.
6. Using the Brew Pause Feature

Helpful Tips

WHOLE BEANS

• Coffee flavor and strength is a personal preference. Vary the type of coffee beans and the strength and flavor settings to achieve the taste of your preference.
• Freshly ground beans are the key to making coffee with more flavor and body. Use freshly roasted coffee beans, preferably with a 'roasted on' date and use within 2 weeks of the 'roasted on' date.
• Store coffee beans in a dark, cool and dry place. Vacuum seal if possible.
• Buy coffee beans in small batches to reduce the storage time and store no more than one week's supply at any time.
• Do not store beans in the bean hopper for a prolonged period.
• Clean the bean hopper and grinding burrs regularly.

PRE-GROUND COFFEE

• We recommend 1 level tablespoon of pre-ground coffee per 5oz/150ml cup of water. Adjust the amount according to your individual taste.The maximum capacity for pre-ground coffee is 16 level tablespoons. Exceeding this amount may cause the coffee basket to overflow.
• The grind will affect the rate at which the water flows through the coffee in the coffee basket and therefore the taste of the coffee. If the grind is too fine the water will not flow through the coffee and may clog or overflow the coffee basket. Alternatively, it may pass through the gold tone filter leaving sediment in the cup or carafe. The resulting coffee will be over extracted, too dark and bitter. If the grind is too coarse the water will flow through the coffee too quickly. This will result in an under-extracted coffee lacking in flavor.
• Always use "drip coffee grind" suitable for use with a drip coffee machine. Never use "Espresso grind" as the finer grind size may cause the coffee basket to overflow.

GENERAL TIPS

• Pre-heat the carafe or cup for best results. A pre-heated carafe or cup will help maintain the coffee's optimal temperature and keep coffee hotter for longer. Fill with hot water for about 30 seconds then discard the water.
• Fresh, good-tasting water is essential for a perfect cup. If your water contains excessive sediment, or has an 'off' taste or odor, we recommend using filtered water.

ICED COFFEE

• Iced coffee is at its best when the coffee is brewed strong because the coffee is diluted by the melting ice cubes. We recommend selecting '9 CUPS' and theINTENSE' strength setting This makes approximately 1.5 quarts (1.5L) of brewed coffee, enough for 4-6 servings. Once the brewing cycle is complete, transfer the coffee to a heatproof pitcher and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours or up to over might. Fill glasses with ice cubes. Pour the coffee into the glasses, filling them to within15"(4cm) of the rim. Top each glass with cream, milk, syrups or sweeteners as desired.
• If using granulated sugar as a sweetener, add while the coffee is hot to encourage the sugar crystals to completely dissolve.
• To avoid a diluted taste, you can also use regular strength coffee and serve it over coffee ice cubes. Prepare coffee ice cubes by pouring cool coffee into ice-cube trays and freezing.

Care & Cleaning

Always turn the coffee machine off and remove the plug from the power outlet before cleaning.

CLEANING THE COFFEE BASKET AND GOLD TONE FILTER

After every use, press the OPEN button to open the swing-out door. Remove the coffee basket. Discard the ground coffee and paper filter. The coffee basket and gold tone filter can be rinsed under running water. Make sure to thoroughly rinse the chute area of the coffee basket and ensure the fine holes of the gold tone filter are clear. For a deeper clean, wash the coffee basket and gold tone filter in warm, soapy water with a soft bristled brush.

NOTE: The flap on the side of the coffee basket is the steam baffle which assists with water overflow if the coffee basket becomes blocked. The flap is hinged from the bottom for easy cleaning. Pull the flap downwards to clean, however always click it back into the upright position before use.

CAUTION: The coffee basket, gold tone or paper filter may still be very hot after brewing. Use caution and allow to cool before removing.

CLEANING THE CARAFE

After each use, empty the carafe. Do not let brewed coffee stand overnight as this can cause the carafe to stain. Rinse the carafe and carafe lid under running water. For a deeper clean, we recommend regularly washing the carafe in warm, soapy water with a soft bristled brush (one can be purchased from Breville if you do not have a suitable one). Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths which can scratch the surface. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

CLEANING THE BEAN HOPPER

Remove the hopper lid and turn the locking knob counter-clockwise in the direction of the UNLOCK arrow. The bean hopper and lid can be washed in warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths which can scratch the surface. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

NOTE: Do not clean any of the parts or accessories in the dishwasher.

CLEANING THE GRINDING BURRS AND COFFEE GRINDS CHUTE

The LCD screen will display 'CLEAN COFFEE CHUTE' when the grinding burrs and coffee grinds chute need to be cleaned. We recommend doing this immediately to avoid clogging and overflowing of the coffee basket. Depending on frequency of use, you may choose to do this every 2-3 weeks.

1. Press the POWER button to turn the machine on.

CLEANING THE GRINDS CATCHER AND DRIP TRAY

Press the OPEN button to open the swing-out door.Remove the grinds catcher located under the coffee grinds chute and the 2-part drip tray at the base of the machine. Wash in warm, soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths which can scratch the surface. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

CLEANING THE OUTER HOUSING

The outer housing and LCD screen can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Apply cleanser to the cloth and not the LCD surface. Polish with a soft, dry cloth. Cleaning and drying with dry paper towels or abrasive cloths and cleaners may scratch the surface.

REMOVING CALCIUM BUILD-UP

Your coffee machine may experience build-up from calcium and minerals contained in your water. This 'scale' or mineral build-up will affect the machine's performance and coffee quality. It is critical that scale build-up be removed. How often you de-scale will depend on the hardness of your water and the frequency of use. For best results, Breville recommends de-scaling once per month in soft water environments and more frequently in hard water environments.

If there is an excessive mineral build-up, the LCD screen will display 'DE-SCALE.

Remove the 'DE-SCALE" icon by pressing the SINGLE CUP and CARAFE button together, then follow these steps:
