Breville Barista Express
Semi-automatic espresso machine
Getting Started
Fill the water tank at the back and the hopper on top with whole beans. Insert the portafilter, switch on, and give it 20 seconds to heat before your first shot.
Panel Controls
The grinder dial sets grind fineness; the dose slider adjusts grams. Use the 1-cup and 2-cup buttons to pull a shot, and the steam wand for milk.
Care Tips
Run a cleaning cycle every 200 shots and backflush weekly. Wipe the steam wand right after use so milk doesn't crust on it.

Ask follow-up questions
Not sure what a symbol means or how to clean it? Ask about the product and get a grounded answer from your guide.
Warnings that matter
Real safety notes — not legal boilerplate. Know what to avoid before you press the button.
