Cleaning The Steam Wand; Cleaning The Filter Baskets And Portafilter; Cleaning The Drip And Storage Tray; Storing Your Machine - Breville Barista Express Instruction Book

CLEANING THE STEAM WAND

• The steam wand should always be cleaned
after texturing milk. Wipe the steam wand
with a damp cloth. Then with the steam wand
tip directed over the drip tray, briefly set the
STEAM/HOT WATER dial to the STEAM
position. This will clear any remaining milk
from inside the steam wand.
• If any of the holes in the tip of the steam
wand become blocked, ensure the STEAM/
HOT WATER dial is in the STANDBY
position. Press the POWER button to switch
the machine off and allow to cool. Use the pin
on the end of the provided cleaning tool to
unblock the hole(s).
• If the steam wand remains blocked, remove
the tip using the integrated spanner in the
cleaning tool and soak in hot water. Use the
pin on the end of the provided cleaning tool
to unblock the hole(s) before re-attaching to
the steam wand.
CLEANING THE FILTER BASKETS
AND PORTAFILTER
• The filter baskets and portafilter should be
rinsed under hot water immediately after use
to remove all residual coffee oils.
• If any of the holes in the filter basket become
blocked, use the pin on the end of the
provided cleaning tool to unblock the hole(s).
• If the hole(s) remain blocked, dissolve a
cleaning tablet in hot water and soak filter
basket and portafilter in solution for approx.
20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
CLEANING THE SHOWER SCREEN
• The group head interior and shower screen
should be wiped with a damp cloth to remove
any ground coffee particles.
• Periodically purge the machine. Place an
empty filter basket and portfilter into the
group head. Press and hold the 1 CUP button
and run a short flow of water to rinse out any
residual coffee.

CLEANING THE DRIP &
STORAGE TRAY
• The drip tray should be removed, emptied
and cleaned at regular intervals, particularly
when the drip tray full indicator is showing
EMPTY ME!
• Remove the grid from the drip tray.
Lift the coffee grind separator and dispose
of any coffee grounds. The EMPTY ME!
indicator can also be removed from the drip
tray by pulling upwards to release the side
latches. Wash all parts in warm soapy water
with a soft cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
• The storage tray (located behind the drip
tray) can be removed and cleaned with a soft,
damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers,
pads or cloths which can scratch the surface.
NOTE
All parts should be cleaned by hand using
warm water and a gentle dish washing liquid.
Do not use abrasive cleansers, pads or cloths
which can scratch the surface. Do not clean
any of the parts or accessories in
the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE OUTER HOUSING &
CUP WARMING TRAY
The outer housing and cup warming tray can
be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Polish with
a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers,
pads or cloths which can scratch the surface.
