Omg thank you so much! I just watched 2 other videos and I couldn’t figure out why water wasnt coming out from the portafilter like in the other videos. Sure enough water was emptying from the back! Thank you so much for mentioning that! Phew, thought something was wrong with my machine!

Same here! The official Breville video as well as the instruction book are very confusing in that way! They also mention 3 beeps but mine beeps twice. And you don’t need to hold the 3 buttons for 10 seconds, you just need to wait for the machine to turn on! C’mon guys! You scared me! 😅

Wow! I recently replaced my Breville Barista and I just ran the cleaning cycle for the first time. NO water out of the portafilter !! I thought something was very wrong because it still says in the new manual that water will flow out through the portafilter.(Barista Express BES870XL/A). Now watching your video, I realize that it did what your video showed. Thank you!!! Very helpful channel !

@michellecoffman82645 жыл бұрын
Nowhere in the instructions from the machine does it say that no water will be coming through the Porta filter basket. I read something on Reddit that told me that the water will be coming through the backflow and not through the Porta filter. I guess there was a change in the little rubber gasket and it does not have a hole in it and Breville has not updated their instructions so I thought I had a problematic machine and returned it and got a new one. They really need to update their instructions. But it looks like you have already figured that out yourself also.

Don't think so. Because that rubber gasket blocks the water from going down the Porta filter and forces it to go back the group head and cause the "back flush" effect where the water comes out from behind the tray area.

@AnthonyLauder5 жыл бұрын
I think you are cleaning your machine too often. As you know, the machine blinks the "clean me" light every time you have pulled 200 shots. However, in your videos you often pull lots of water-only shots to heat up the group head. The machine counts these too, since it doesn't know that you have no coffee in there, so it has to assume they are real shots. In reality, only shots with actual coffee should be counted.
