When To Reset Your Breville Espresso Machine or Coffee Maker
Breville coffee and espresso machines give you the option to change some of the default settings that come programed from the factory. For the espresso machine models, the most common setting to change is the amount of espresso that comes out when you select 1 Cup or 2 Cup. If you ever find that you are getting too much or too little espresso from your pull, it’s a good idea to try a reset.
Some models also allow you to set a water hardness setting when you first set up your machine. This will tell you when it is time to descale your Breville. If you ever want to change that setting, a factory reset will be the easiest way to do it.
