Can you please make a playlist for this series?

It would be cool to hear about getting your machine dialled in for the correct brew time, i.e. how long your shot should take to pull, and how much espresso yield you get. It would follow on pretty nicely from a short about pressure like this ☕️👌

Short and to the point. And it worked! Thank you.

Failure to use fresh beans will cause the same issue. Breville recommends using beans with a roasted date of 25 days or less.

I don't understand to much of coffee, but everything I read, mostly from official sources, you need to be at 2-3 BAR for 10 seconds (less grey area), they call it Pre-infusion and then the next 20 seconds at 5-6 bar. In your video the pointer goes directly to the grey area. Should stop a little at 3-4 bar

More of the breville series plzzz

So helpful, I got a different machine but many of the same concepts. Thank you!

Thank you so much for this!

Where can I find the rest of said series??

I’ve had this machine for about a year now. My biggest tip is that the closer you get to the “one o’clock” mark of the pressure gauge (but still in the espresso zone) makes the best espresso. It should take about 30 seconds for a double shot

Love your content!

This was very helpful, what a lovely machine. (I always somehow get my espresso bitter lol)

So much grinding 💪

Thanks for the tip ❤

Eventually i think you should show how to pull manual shots on the machine, im currently struggling with my shots spraying on my breville after doing the same prep as you minus the puck screen (maybe the issue? Maybe just me)

I have this machine. I have my grind size at 3 and my grind amount 3 notches to the right of the max amount. My espresso comes out decent

Do an honest review video of the Breville. Rating each component out of 10 and whether you think it’s worth the money.

Thanks, I'm planning to buy a machine like this, is it a good one?

First one and thank you I needed this

Love u man!!!!!

I would love to know how to properly dial the breville in! Things like brewing time, grind sizing, and espresso yield would be so helpful

What happens when you essentially have the grind at 0 and you have adjusted the internal grind setting to 0? So essentially you can’t go any finer? I assume at that point you are contacting Breville for a replacement?

It works!

When you are looking for a topic.... how about telling your origin story of how you got involved in the world of coffee, the start of your channel and where your coffee destination may end up.

Can you discuss the helpful equipment add ons (funnels, etc)

Make sure beans also play an important role in the perfect coffee shot.

Can you list links to your gear? I’m interested in the dosing funnel and filter you use

Let's do a video that covers exactly what the operating manual for the machine covers (palms face). This is only helpful for someone who either can't (or won't) read the manual. It doesn't cover any in depth reason as to why your pressure might not be coming up properly i.e. pump issues, pressure sensor issues, wrong grind for the basket type, insufficient amount of beans in the basket.

Thanks, I think we finally dialed.our espresso, now we are in our way of getting microform right, next latte art! What is the name of the tamping mat you use?

I’m trying to buy a coffee machine, will be my first one. Please, suggest which one would be the best option for a beginner. Also, what’s the name of this machine in the video? Where can I find this in the UK, please?

Need to know more about heat

Can you suggest which filter burr setting it should be at? This is getting frustrating pulling the right shot

What water temp do you keep your breville on?

Hi Ethan, No matter what I do. I cannot get the pressure up except for #1 grind and incredible amount of tamping. Any ideas?

Can you tell us the setting of your grounding wheel interior?

What is the name of the attachment that screws onto the tamper?

But if the 12 is too coarse, should you increase the grind amount to pull a better shot? What is the difference in taste ?

Does it make a difference whether you use a single wall vs duel wall espresso basket? Does that effect the pressure at all?

Do you think it’s worth the $200 to upgrade to the Breville Barista Express Impress?? Would you spend the additional $200? Thank you!

Thank you

You're using a different handle, does that make a difference?

Have had my Breville since 2018 now and it’s still going strong but as of late my pressure gauge has been really slow to get up to that 1 o clock target. The timing of the shot and taste feel right, but any ideas if this is actually an issue with the pressure or is it just an issue with the gauge?

whats your inner burr setting? I just bought a new top burr, should I keep the inner grind on 5, or should I go lower, to 3-4?

nice 👍🙂

Good

My grind is set to 5 and it was pulling the perfect shot with the Crema. I have done a descaling and still not reaching the espresso range. Do I need to set the grind to 4 and see if I get back to that perfect shot of espresso.

I have the barista Touch, does that have the same grinder as this one?

Can you please link the bottomless portafilter?

What machine is that

Can you pull shots and steam milk at the same time?

Ily

Based on that pressure indicator the needle goes 50% thats still a lame taste came out of this machine. You need to make it 85% to 90% of pressure within 27 to 30 seconds for 20g of mid to dark roast yield to 40 to 40.4g will give you full richness of the coffee.

This is so freaking helpful!! I have the Breville barista pro and I don’t have a dial but my grind setting. Is 6 the sweet spot?

I tried deceasing the grind size the pressure is slowly coming up but unfortunately I’m running out of settings I’m already on 3. Could there be something else that could be preventing me from being in that espresso zone?

I need to know if you think the Brieville Barista Touch Impress is worth the money or not 🥺

I have the wheel adjusted to 3 and my pressure is like yours on 12, is my machine already broken?

Can you make video how to fix the machine that does not grind.

I have this machine sinds 2017...the best shot is when the pressure meter is exact at 12 o clock...

I have the opposite problem. Pressure is above the range but it's coming out to fast.

Is that a different filter? Mine is double spouted and hate it

What if I bought freshly ground beans, can I still get it to espresso pressure?

I’ve noticed that the machine will also not come up too pressure when using old beans, even at very fine ground settings.

Where’s the rest of the series?

What to do if the water overflows, spilling out of the portafilter?

What scale is that?

I'm confused, you had the grind level at 12 for the first pull, but then you said to increase pressure you need to grind the beans finer but then you moved it up to 6. Isn't that a more course setting which would make the shot pull faster? Can you please explain.

I made the grind really fine and it still refuses to get out of the pre infusion zone! If i put a blank in the pressure jumps up just fine so i know the pump works. Help? I didnt change anything from when it worked fine to now i cant even drink it

Neat

What if you do grind size 2

Why is your puck open but mine has a spout either side?

I have a brand new machine, less than 2 weeks... week one it would get into pressure, week 2 the needle barely moves, IDK what the deal is. I tried this, and a few other things, and it didnt help. Im hoping its not defective.

Mine is on lvl 5 grind and the pressure still stays in pre fusion, actually hardly moves :/ i bought the barista express last week...

How can I get my Cafe Roma to pull slower....I am pretty fine already but still only takes 10 seconds

Ethannn send me a espresso machineee 😢

How to make that shot taste more sweetness and chocolate side

My grind size is on a 1 (maximum fineness) and my espresso STILL won't come up to pressure. Pls help!

Try 5 then change the inside bur to 3 or 4

Why doesn’t it just come at the perfect grind size

Looks like it only came up to 8psi on the video.

so I've had my machine for two days, ran through 500 grams ofbeans and it still comes out sour. Inside burr is on 4, outside ive tried anything from 1 to 16. Same amount of coffee (18.1g). Did the pressure test with the rubber cleaning disk, the max pressure the machine showed is 12 o' clock. Does this mean I have a faulty machine?

I feel like u forget about this series ):

Does anyone ever adjust the grind amount? If so what parameters dictate the amount?

Grind finer

was driving me nuts. i thought i broke the pump or something because i let it run dry a couple of times (i for what ever reason cant see the water level without removing the cover on the tank and it empties really quickly for me compared to my previous machine) i kept the pamphlet with instructions and i kept following those and getting progressively worse shots as a result. 'if the pressure is low turn up the dial' i dont know why they would give you instructions that make their product seem worse than it is- its like every large buisness just wants to shoot themselves in the foot there days :l like i honestly just want to tell them "buy a shotgun and literally shoot your toes off if you want to shoot your self in the foot so bad, no reason to self sabotage your expensive products." also when i was running anything darker than a light roast through the machine (and actually in the "espresso zone") i kept getting muddy pucks that necesitated me scrub all the bits that made contact with the grounds. is this just a problem with darker roasts or an issue with the beans? none where flavored but i noticed the medium roasts had an oily shine to them that my lighter beans didnt have. also also, ive been wanting to try to make cuban style espresso for a while (brown sugar on top of the puck) after having some at a local coffee place (didn't watch them make it so i don't know what all they did) but I don't want to gum up my machine. would any residual sugar be washed away when i run hot water through it or will i have to actually grab a rag and scrub it off? and can it harm the machine?

I recently bought a Breville Barista Express it's 2 months old now, I did a pressure test with a cleaning disc and not getting full pressure like pass the espresso range. I also made the grind finest and espresso didn't even come out and still didn't get the full pressure I got the same pressure as the image. Does this mean it's faulty as I saw a KZfaq video usually when you insert cleaning the disc needle should run past the espresso range and same with grind using the finest setting.The cleaning disc does not have a hole so it should run past espresso. Reference of KZfaq video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j6lgn7ektMWRfKM.htmlfeature=shared

Mine is on number 6 and it doesn’t even move!

What happens if your grind setting is at 3 and still not hitting espresso range?

I’ve continued to decrease my grind size even at 3 and 1 still the pressure isn’t increasing at all! The pressure remains almost zero. I don’t know what to do

I use the finest grind setting and still can’t get the pressure up. Any ideas why?

What is that clear disk you put on your Porto filter so the extra coffee doesn’t go all over the place!

Mine is getting too high of pressure.

I have water remaining in the Porto filter. Is this normal?

what if I have my pressure gauge to max? I tamp too hard on need to grind coarser?

Even with grind size of 1, my pressure marker isn't moving one bit. Help 😢

Ethan need some help. it seems theres no water coming out of the grouphead. when i press the single or double shot. but the hot water and steamer works fine.

but why are you using a cheap ass aldi brand coffee machine?

All this normcore stuff is just paying for the brand

Can't master in shorts. You just want viewsssss

Does puck screen on top of coffee puck increase the pressure? And how it affects the flow? bc I only sometimes get that smooth and creamy espresso flow even when using 1week fresh beans 🫤
