<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>If your espresso extraction stops after approximately <b>3–5 seconds</b>, resulting in little or no water or espresso from the brew head, follow the troubleshooting steps below.</p>
<p>The 1 Cup or 2 Cup cycle may end much sooner than expected. In some cases, the hot water or steam function may also stop early.</p>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<ul><li>The 1 Cup or 2 Cup extraction stops after approximately 3–5 seconds.</li><li>Little or no water or espresso flows from the brew head.</li><li>The hot water or steam function may also stop after only a few seconds.</li></ul>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>Possible causes include insufficient water supply, an incorrectly installed water tank, restricted water flow through the coffee or filter basket, a restricted water filter, an unprimed water system, a changed extraction setting, or mineral buildup inside the machine.</p>
<h2>Procedure</h2>
<ol><li><b>Check the water tank</b>
<ul><li>Check the water level in the water tank.</li><li>If the water is below the minimum line, refill the tank with fresh water.</li><li>Remove and reinstall the water tank.</li><li>Make sure the tank is fully seated and securely installed.</li></ul>
<p>An empty or incorrectly installed water tank can prevent the machine from receiving enough water.</p>
</li><li><b>Test the water flow without the portafilter</b>
<ul><li>Remove the portafilter from the brew head.</li><li>Make sure the water tank is filled and securely installed.</li><li>Press the <b>2 Cup</b> button or start a double-shot brew cycle.</li><li>Check whether water flows from the brew head and whether the cycle continues for longer than 3–5 seconds.</li></ul>
<p><b>If water flows normally:</b></p>
<ul><li>Adjust the grind slightly coarser.</li><li>Make sure you are using the correct amount of coffee for the filter basket.</li><li>If your machine includes a precision dose trimming tool, use it to check the dose.</li><li>Make sure the coffee is evenly distributed and tamped according to the instructions for your machine.</li><li>Check the filter basket for blocked openings and clean it if needed.</li></ul>
<p>A grind that is too fine, too much coffee, excessive tamping, or a blocked filter basket can restrict water flow through the coffee.</p>
<p><b>If the cycle still stops after 3–5 seconds:</b> Continue to the next step.</p>
</li><li><b>Remove the water filter and test again</b>
<ul><li>Remove the water tank from the machine.</li><li>Remove the water filter.</li><li>Refill the water tank with fresh water to the <b>MAX</b> line.</li><li>Reinstall the water tank without the water filter.</li><li>Make sure the water tank is fully seated and securely installed.</li><li>Leave the portafilter removed.</li><li>Press the <b>2 Cup</b> button or start a double-shot brew cycle.</li><li>Check whether the cycle continues for longer than 3–5 seconds.</li></ul>
<p><b>If the machine operates normally without the water filter:</b> Replace the water filter with a new one before returning the machine to normal use.</p>
<p><b>If the machine still stops after 3–5 seconds:</b> Continue to the next step.</p>
</li><li><b>Prime the water system</b>
<ul><li>Leave the portafilter removed.</li><li>Run the <b>2 Cup</b> brew function.</li><li>If your machine has a hot water function, run hot water for approximately <b>30 seconds</b>.</li><li>Repeat the water-only brew cycle as needed and check whether normal water flow returns.</li></ul>
<p>Priming can be particularly helpful if the machine is new, the water tank recently ran empty, or the machine has not been used for an extended period.</p>
</li><li><b>Test the hot water and steam functions</b>
<ul><li>Run the <b>hot water</b> function and check whether it continues to operate normally.</li><li>Run the <b>steam</b> function and check whether it continues to operate normally.</li></ul>
<p>If the brew head, hot water, and steam functions all have little or no output or stop after only a few seconds, continue with the steps below.</p>
</li><li><b>Reset the extraction setting, if applicable</b>
<ul><li>If water flows normally but the 1 Cup or 2 Cup cycle consistently ends after only a few seconds, the programmed extraction setting may have been changed.</li><li>Reset the extraction setting or restore the machine&#39;s factory settings according to the instructions for your model.</li></ul>
<p>Reset procedures vary by machine. Refer to your instruction manual for the correct procedure.</p>
</li><li><b>Descale the machine</b>
<ul><li>If water flow remains restricted or your machine is due for descaling, complete the descale cycle for your specific model.</li><li>Use a descaling solution or powder designed for espresso machines.</li><li>Follow the complete descale and rinse procedure specified for your machine.</li></ul>
<p>Mineral buildup inside the machine can restrict water flow and affect brewing, hot water, and steam performance.</p>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>If the extraction still stops after approximately 3–5 seconds after checking the water tank, testing without the portafilter, testing without the water filter, priming the water system, testing the hot water and steam functions, resetting the extraction setting when applicable, and completing the recommended descale process, contact customer support or an authorised service provider for further assistance.</p>
<h2>Notes &amp; Tips</h2>
<ul><li>Cleaning and descaling are different maintenance processes.</li><li>A cleaning tablet or cleaning cycle removes coffee oils and residue. It does not replace the descaling process used to remove mineral buildup.</li><li>Reset and priming procedures can vary by model. Refer to the instruction manual for model-specific directions.</li></ul>

<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>If the dose feedback indicator does not reflect the actual dose (for example, it does not indicate a dose or it shows “full” when the basket is still empty), follow the steps below to run the dose feedback reset procedure.</p>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<ul><li>The dose indicator is not indicating the dose.</li><li>The indicator may show full when the basket/portafilter is still empty.</li></ul>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>The dose feedback indicator on the BES876 does not measure the actual amount of ground coffee in the portafilter. Instead, it estimates the dose based on basket type and filter settings on the machine. Changes in coffee flow, grind setting, or coffee buildup can cause the indicator to behave inconsistently, including showing a full dose when little or no coffee has been dispensed.</p>
<h2>Procedure</h2>
<ol><li><b>Prepare the machine (do not power it on)</b>
<ul><li>Plug in the machine.</li><li>Turn on the wall power socket.</li><li>Do <b>not</b> power up the unit yet.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Enter the reset mode</b>
<ul><li>Press and hold <b>DOSE</b>, <b>FILTER</b>, and <b>POWER</b> together for <b>5 seconds</b>.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Confirm the correct LED behaviour</b>
<ul><li>The <b>POWER</b> button should be <b>solid on</b>.</li><li>The <b>TAMP</b> LEDs should be <b>blinking</b>.</li><li>The <b>FILTER (1 cup)</b> LED should be <b>blinking</b>.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Insert the correct basket</b>
<ul><li>Insert the <b>dual wall single basket</b>.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Tamp to complete the reset</b>
<ul><li>Tamp until you hear a <b>beep</b>.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Confirm success</b>
<ul><li>If successful, the machine will <b>turn off</b>.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>After a successful reset, the dose feedback should behave more consistently. If the indicator still shows incorrect feedback after performing the procedure, recommend cleaning the grinder/coffee path per standard maintenance guidance.</p>

<h1 style="text-align: center;">Thumping Noise While steaming</h1>
<div class="article-section">
<p>It is normal to hear a thumping noise while the steam wand function is in progress on espresso machines equipped with Thermocoil or ThermoJet heating systems. This sound occurs as the internal pump cycles on and off to maintain the correct pressure and steam output during operation.</p>
</div>
<div class="note">
<p>The rhythmic thumping you hear is part of the machine’s normal operation and indicates that the pump is functioning correctly. No action is required, and the noise will stop once the steam process is complete.</p>

<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>If you notice water leaking from your Oracle® espresso machine, first identify where the water is coming from. Water entering the drip tray is normal, while water leaking from other areas may require troubleshooting.</p>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<ul><li>Water or espresso leaks around the portafilter during extraction.</li><li>Water appears to leak from the water tank.</li><li>Water collects in the drip tray.</li><li>Water leaks near the descale access area.</li><li>Water leaks from inside or underneath the machine.</li></ul>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>The cause depends on where the water is coming from. Common causes include coffee or moisture preventing the portafilter from sealing correctly, a worn group head seal, an improperly seated or leaking water tank, normal automatic purging into the drip tray, or boiler drain valves that were not fully closed after descaling.</p>
<h2>Things to Check</h2>
<ol><li><b>Check for leaking around the portafilter</b>
<ul><li>Make sure the portafilter is fully inserted and securely locked into the group head.</li><li>Check the rim of the filter basket for coffee grounds and wipe away any excess coffee.</li><li>Make sure the filter basket rim and portafilter are clean and dry before inserting the portafilter.</li><li>Check the silicone seal around the group head for visible wear or damage.</li><li>Coffee around the filter basket rim or moisture on the portafilter can prevent a proper seal during extraction.</li><li>If the silicone seal is worn or damaged, it may need to be replaced. <a href="https://www.breville.com/en-nz/parts-accessories/parts/sp0001635.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Purchase a replacement silicone seal</a>.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check the water tank for leaks</b>
<ul><li>Remove the water tank from the machine.</li><li>Place the tank in a sink.</li><li>Fill it with water.</li><li>Allow it to sit and check for leaking.</li><li>If the tank leaks, it may need to be replaced. <a href="https://www.breville.com/en-nz/parts-accessories/parts/sp0023712.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Purchase a replacement water tank</a>.</li><li>If the tank does not leak, reinstall it and make sure it is fully inserted and securely locked into position.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check whether water in the drip tray is normal</b>
<ul><li>Some water in the drip tray is normal and does not necessarily indicate a leak.</li><li>The machine uses an automatic purge function during normal operation. Water released during purging is directed into the drip tray.</li><li>Keep the drip tray fully inserted into the machine, including after the machine has been turned off.</li><li>If water is entering the drip tray through the normal purge outlet, no action is required.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check the descale access area</b>
<ul><li>If the leak started after descaling, check that the boiler drain valves were completely closed after the descale procedure.</li><li>Turn off the machine and allow it to cool.</li><li>Locate the <b>DESCALE ACCESS</b> area.</li><li>Check that both boiler drain valves are closed.</li><li>If needed, use a flat-head screwdriver to gently turn the valves clockwise until seated.</li><li>Do not overtighten the valves, as this may damage them.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>If the water is coming from the normal purge outlet into the drip tray, no action is required.</p>
<p>If you have confirmed that the leak is not caused by normal purging, the water tank, the portafilter seal, or the descale access area, contact Customer Support for further assistance.</p>
<h2>Notes &amp; Tips</h2>
<ul><li>Keep the portafilter and filter basket rim clean and dry to help maintain a proper seal.</li><li>After descaling, make sure both boiler drain valves are fully closed without overtightening them.</li></ul>

<table border="1" width="100%" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><b>Safety First:</b> Use care when purging or texturing milk because hot steam is released. After texturing, wipe the steam wand with a clean, damp cloth before lowering it into the automatic purge position.</td></tr></tbody></table>
<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>Different types and brands of milk can produce different amounts and textures of foam. If your milk has too much or too little foam, use the tips below to improve texture and consistency.</p>
<h2>Things to Check</h2>
<ol><li><b>Start with fresh, cold milk</b>
<ul><li>Always begin with fresh milk that is cold from the refrigerator.</li><li>Fill the milk jug to below the spout.</li><li>Make sure there is enough milk to cover the steam wand seal when the wand is in position.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Consider the type of milk you are using</b>
<ul><li>Different types and brands of milk can produce different amounts and textures of foam.</li><li>Non-fat or skim milk generally produces a larger volume of lighter, airier foam. The bubbles may be larger and the texture may be less creamy.</li><li>Low-fat or 2% milk generally provides a balance between foam volume and creaminess.</li><li>Whole milk generally produces a richer, creamier texture and can be a good choice for smooth, silky microfoam.</li><li>Adjust the milk texture or froth setting as needed when changing milk types or brands.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Adjust for plant-based milk alternatives</b>
<ul><li>Plant-based milks can vary significantly by type, brand, and formulation.</li><li>Always start with the milk cold.</li><li>Adjust the milk texture or froth setting as needed.</li><li>Consider using a barista-style plant-based milk designed for coffee.</li><li>Try another brand if you are having difficulty achieving your preferred texture.</li><li>Use manual milk texturing if you would like more control over the finished result.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Purge the steam wand before texturing</b>
<ul><li>Briefly purge the steam wand before placing it in the milk to remove condensed water.</li><li>On the Oracle®, momentarily press down the steam lever with the wand positioned over the drip tray.</li><li>On the Oracle® Touch, briefly activate the Milk function with the wand positioned over the drip tray, then stop the steam before placing the wand into the milk.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Position the milk jug correctly</b>
<ul><li>Lift the steam wand and place the milk jug underneath.</li><li>Insert the steam wand into the milk.</li><li>Lower the steam wand completely.</li><li>Make sure the milk covers the steam wand seal.</li><li>Make sure the milk jug is resting correctly on the drip tray.</li><li>During automatic milk texturing, steaming will stop when the selected milk temperature is reached.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Adjust the milk texture</b>
<ul><li>If the milk is not reaching your preferred texture, change the texture or froth setting and try again.</li><li>On the Oracle®, move the milk texture setting toward CAPP for more texture or toward LATTE for less texture.</li><li>On the Oracle® Touch, adjust the milk texture from the touchscreen.</li><li>You may need to readjust the setting whenever you change milk type or brand.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Adjust the milk temperature</b>
<ul><li>On the Oracle®, the recommended milk temperature range is approximately 131–150°F (55–65°C).</li><li>Experiment with the temperature and texture settings to find the combination you prefer.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Try manual milk texturing for more control</b>
<ul><li>Both the Oracle® and Oracle® Touch allow milk to be textured manually.</li><li>Manual texturing gives you more control over how much air is introduced into the milk and over the finished texture.</li><li>Automatic milk texturing and automatic shut-off are disabled in manual mode.</li><li>Stop steaming manually when the desired texture and temperature are reached.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Keep the steam wand clean</b>
<ul><li>Make sure the holes around the steam wand tip remain clear. Even partially blocked holes can reduce the amount of foam produced.</li><li>After texturing, lift the steam wand and remove the milk jug.</li><li>Wipe the steam wand and tip with a clean, damp cloth before lowering the wand.</li><li>Lower the steam wand to the down position so it can automatically purge.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Finish and pour the milk promptly</b>
<ul><li>Gently tap the jug on the countertop to collapse larger bubbles.</li><li>Swirl the jug to combine and polish the milk and microfoam.</li><li>Pour promptly before the milk begins to separate.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>Properly textured milk should have an even, consistent texture suited to your preferred drink. If the foam level is still not as expected, try a different milk texture setting, milk type, or brand. If foam production remains low, check that the steam wand tip holes are completely clear.</p>
<h2>Notes &amp; Tips</h2>
<ul><li>Milk results can vary significantly by brand and formulation, even within the same type of milk.</li><li>Changing milk may require adjusting the texture or froth setting again.</li><li>Barista-style plant-based milk may provide more consistent texturing results.</li><li>Manual texturing is useful when you want more control over the amount of air introduced into the milk.</li></ul>

<table cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="160"><b>Applies to:</b></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Espresso machines with a removable portafilter and filter basket</td></tr><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><b>Tools:</b></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Clean cloth, cleaning brush, flat dull non-metal tool</td></tr></tbody></table>
<table border="1" width="100%" cellpadding="8" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1"><b>Safety First:</b> Turn off and unplug the machine, and allow the group head and portafilter to cool completely before attempting removal. Never use sharp or metal tools, as they can damage the filter basket, group head, or gasket.</td></tr></tbody></table>
<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>If the filter basket is stuck either in the portafilter or inside the group head, the cause is usually coffee residue, oils, or heat expansion. Most cases can be resolved safely without force by allowing the parts to cool, loosening residue, and applying gentle, even pressure.</p>
<p>Follow the troubleshooting steps for the issue you are experiencing:</p>
<ul><li><b>Scenario A:</b> Filter basket is stuck inside the portafilter.</li><li><b>Scenario B:</b> Filter basket is stuck inside the group head.</li></ul>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<ul><li>The filter basket will not release from the portafilter.</li><li>The filter basket remains lodged in the group head after the portafilter is removed.</li></ul>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>Coffee residue and oils can create a light vacuum or stickiness between the filter basket and surrounding parts. Heat can also tighten the fit. A dry or worn group head gasket may grip the basket more firmly than usual, while overfilling or heavy tamping can push the basket farther into the group head.</p>
<h2>Scenario A: Filter Basket Stuck in the Portafilter</h2>
<ol><li><b>Allow the portafilter to cool completely.</b></li><li><b>Clean around the basket rim.</b>
<ul><li>Use a damp cloth or paper towel to remove coffee oils and residue from around the basket rim.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Gently loosen the filter basket.</b>
<ul><li>Turn the portafilter upside down over a cloth or towel.</li><li>Use a flat, dull, non-metal tool to gently ease the filter basket out of the portafilter.</li><li>Avoid metal utensils or sharp tools that could scratch or warp the basket.</li><li>Apply gentle pressure around different areas of the basket rim until the basket releases.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Wash and dry the parts.</b>
<ul><li>Clean the filter basket and portafilter with warm, soapy water.</li><li>Rinse thoroughly.</li><li>Dry both parts completely before reinstalling the basket.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Reinstall the basket and help prevent the issue from returning.</b>
<ul><li>Press the filter basket evenly into the portafilter until it is securely seated.</li><li>Avoid overfilling or over-tamping the coffee grounds.</li><li>Clean the group head and portafilter regularly to prevent residue buildup.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Scenario B: Filter Basket Stuck in the Group Head</h2>
<ol><li><b>Turn off and unplug the machine.</b></li><li><b>Allow the group head to cool completely.</b></li><li><b>Inspect the group head.</b>
<ul><li>Look underneath the group head and confirm that the filter basket is lodged against the gasket where the portafilter is normally installed.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Gently loosen the filter basket.</b>
<ul><li>Place a soft cloth around your fingers or use the edge of a flat, dull, non-metal tool.</li><li>Gently nudge the basket rim downward from opposite sides.</li><li>Alternate sides to keep the pressure even.</li><li>Avoid prying from only one side.</li><li>Do not use sharp or metal tools that could damage the filter basket or gasket.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Alternatively, use the portafilter to help release the basket.</b>
<ul><li>Carefully insert the portafilter at its normal starting angle, slightly left of centre, so that it engages the filter basket rim.</li><li>Do not twist the portafilter or apply excessive force.</li><li>The filter basket should release from the group head and come away with the portafilter.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Clean the group head and gasket.</b>
<ul><li>Remove coffee residue from the gasket and group head using a cleaning brush or damp cloth.</li><li>If the gasket appears dry, hardened, or cracked, contact customer support or an authorised service provider for assistance or replacement.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Reinstall the basket and help prevent the issue from returning.</b>
<ul><li>Press the filter basket evenly into the portafilter until it is securely seated.</li><li>Avoid overfilling or over-tamping, which can push the filter basket into the group head gasket.</li><li>Clean the group head and portafilter regularly to prevent residue buildup.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>The filter basket should release once the parts have cooled and any residue has been cleared. If the basket repeatedly becomes stuck, or if the group head gasket appears worn, hardened, cracked, or damaged, do not force the basket out. Contact customer support or an authorised service provider for further assistance.</p>

Filter Basket Stuck in the Group Head or Portafilter

<table cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="160"><b>Applies to:</b></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">Espresso machines with a drip tray and purge outlet</td></tr></tbody></table>
<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>It is normal for some water to collect in the drip tray during regular use of your espresso machine.</p>
<p>Depending on the model, water may be released into the drip tray during startup or after brewing, steaming, or using hot water. This is part of the machine&#39;s normal operation and helps manage its internal water system and temperature.</p>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<ul><li>The drip tray contains water even when nothing has been spilled into it.</li><li>The drip tray appears to be filling faster than expected.</li><li>You are unsure whether the water in the drip tray is from normal operation or a leak.</li></ul>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>Water released through the machine&#39;s normal purge outlet can collect in the drip tray during regular operation. Water coming from another part of the machine may indicate a leak.</p>
<h2>Procedure</h2>
<ol><li><b>Check the machine and drip tray</b>
<ul><li>Make sure the drip tray is fully inserted into the machine.</li><li>Make sure the water tank is fully seated and securely installed.</li><li>Check that water is not leaking onto the countertop or from another area of the machine.</li><li>If the drip tray is correctly installed but you think the machine may be leaking, continue with the test below.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Prepare the drip tray</b>
<ul><li>Turn off and unplug the machine.</li><li>Remove the drip tray.</li><li>Remove the metal drip tray grid.</li><li>Reinstall the drip tray without the grid.</li><li>Leaving the grid off makes it easier to see where water enters the drip tray.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Prepare the portafilter</b>
<ul><li>Insert the 1 Cup dual wall filter basket into the portafilter.</li><li>Insert the cleaning disc into the filter basket.</li><li>Lock the portafilter securely into the group head.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Run the test</b>
<ul><li>Plug the machine back in and turn it on.</li><li>Allow the machine to reach its ready state.</li><li>Start a brew cycle.</li><li>Allow the cycle to run for approximately 10 seconds, then stop the cycle.</li><li>Watch where water enters the drip tray.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check where the water is coming from</b>
<ul><li>Water entering the drip tray through the machine&#39;s purge outlet is expected.</li><li>Check for water around the group head.</li><li>Check the front and sides of the machine.</li><li>Check underneath the machine.</li><li>Check around the water tank.</li><li>Check the areas surrounding the normal purge outlet.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>If water enters the drip tray only through the expected purge outlet, the machine is operating normally. Water released during normal purge cycles can cause the drip tray to fill even when you have not spilled water into it.</p>
<p>Empty and clean the drip tray regularly and whenever the drip tray full indicator shows that it needs to be emptied.</p>
<p>If water is leaking onto the countertop, around the machine housing, around the water tank, underneath the machine, or from an area other than the normal purge outlet, stop the test and contact customer support for further assistance.</p>

How to Descale Your Breville Espresso Machine

<table cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td colspan="1" rowspan="1" width="160"><b>Applies to:</b></td><td colspan="1" rowspan="1">BES870, BES876, BES881, BES990</td></tr></tbody></table>
<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>If your espresso does not taste balanced, the coffee may be extracting too quickly or too slowly. Coffee freshness, grind size, dose, puck preparation, the coffee itself, and machine cleanliness can all affect flavour.</p>
<p>Start by identifying what you are tasting, then make one adjustment at a time.</p>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<p><b>Sour, sharp, or weak espresso</b></p>
<p>This may indicate under-extraction, meaning water is passing through the coffee too quickly.</p>
<ul><li>Espresso flows quickly from the portafilter.</li><li>The espresso looks thin or watery.</li><li>Crema is thin or pale.</li><li>The shot produces more espresso than expected.</li></ul>
<p><b>Bitter, burnt, or acrid espresso</b></p>
<p>This may indicate over-extraction, meaning water is passing through the coffee too slowly.</p>
<ul><li>Espresso flows very slowly or only drips.</li><li>Very little espresso reaches the cup.</li><li>The espresso appears very dark.</li><li>Crema may appear dark.</li></ul>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>Sour, sharp, or weak espresso can result from under-extraction. Bitter, burnt, or acrid espresso can result from over-extraction. Coffee freshness, grind size, dose, puck preparation, filter basket selection, machine cleanliness, and the coffee itself can also affect flavour.</p>
<h2>Procedure</h2>
<ol><li><b>If the espresso tastes sour, sharp, or weak, adjust the grind finer.</b>
<ul><li>A finer grind creates more resistance and slows the flow of water through the coffee.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check the coffee dose.</b>
<ul><li>Make sure there is enough coffee in the filter basket.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check puck preparation.</b>
<ul><li>For manually tamped machines, distribute the coffee evenly and tamp it level and consistently.</li><li>For machines with assisted or automatic tamping, follow the machine&#39;s guidance.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Prepare another espresso.</b>
<ul><li>Check the extraction and flavour before making another adjustment.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>If the espresso tastes bitter, burnt, or acrid, adjust the grind coarser.</b>
<ul><li>A coarser grind allows water to pass through the coffee more easily.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check the coffee dose.</b>
<ul><li>Make sure there is not too much coffee in the filter basket.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check puck preparation.</b>
<ul><li>Make sure the coffee is evenly distributed and tamped according to your machine&#39;s instructions.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Clean the filter basket and portafilter.</b>
<ul><li>Coffee oils and residue can affect flavour.</li><li>Clean these parts according to your machine&#39;s care instructions.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Clean the group head and shower screen.</b>
<ul><li>Coffee oils and residue can build up on the shower screen and contribute to unpleasant flavours.</li><li>If there is stubborn buildup, the shower screen can be removed and cleaned. </li><li>Follow the shower-screen removal and cleaning instructions for your specific model because the required tool and reassembly procedure vary by model.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Complete the recommended cleaning cycle.</b>
<ul><li>If your machine is due for a cleaning cycle or displays a cleaning notification, complete the cycle according to your machine&#39;s instructions.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check the freshness of your coffee.</b>
<ul><li>Choose coffee with a Roasted On date rather than only a Best Before or Use By date.</li><li>Use freshly roasted whole coffee beans.</li><li>Where specified for your machine, aim to use beans approximately 5–20 days after the roast date.</li><li>Grind immediately before extraction when possible.</li><li>Store beans in a cool, dark, dry container.</li><li>As coffee beans age, their extraction characteristics and flavour can change.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Consider the coffee you are using.</b>
<ul><li>Different coffees naturally have different flavour characteristics depending on factors such as roast level, origin, and processing.</li><li>Some darker roasts may naturally have more pronounced roasted or bitter notes.</li><li>If the extraction appears balanced but you do not enjoy the flavour, try a different coffee or roast and dial in the grinder again.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Make sure you are using the right filter basket.</b>
<ul><li>Use a <b>single wall filter basket</b> when grinding fresh whole coffee beans.</li><li>Use a <b>dual wall filter basket</b> when using pre-ground coffee or coffee that is older or has an unknown roast date.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Make one adjustment at a time.</b>
<ul><li>Keep your coffee dose, distribution, and tamping method consistent while adjusting the grind.</li><li>For sour, weak, or fast-flowing espresso, adjust <b>finer</b>.</li><li>For bitter, overly intense, or slow-flowing espresso, adjust <b>coarser</b>.</li><li>Prepare another espresso after each adjustment and use both the extraction and taste to guide your next change.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>If your espresso still does not taste balanced after checking the coffee, filter basket, grind, dose, puck preparation, and machine cleanliness, dial in the coffee again.</p>
<p>If water flow from the brew head is unusually weak or inconsistent even without the portafilter installed, troubleshoot the machine&#39;s water flow separately.</p>
<h2>Notes &amp; Tips</h2>
<ul><li>The manuals for the BES870, BES876, BES881, and BES990 provide customer-accessible shower-screen removal instructions.</li><li>The required tools and reassembly procedures differ by model, so follow the instructions for your specific machine.</li></ul>

Espresso not Hot enough

<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>The water you use can affect the taste of your espresso, mineral buildup, and how your espresso machine operates.</p>
<p>For best results, use fresh, cold water that meets the recommendations in your machine&#39;s instruction manual.</p>
<h2>What Water Should I Use?</h2>
<p>Water recommendations can vary by machine and local water hardness.</p>
<p>Depending on your machine and water hardness, tap water may work great or  alternative water source may be recommended, such as:</p>
<ul><li>Filtered water</li><li>Bottled spring water</li><li>Mineral water</li></ul>
<p>If your machine includes a water hardness test strip, test the water you will be using and enter or set the appropriate water hardness level according to your machine&#39;s instructions.</p>
<p>Some models recommend changing to an alternative water source when the measured water hardness is particularly high.</p>
<h2>What Types of Water Should I Avoid?</h2>
<p>Avoid water with little or no mineral content, including:</p>
<ul><li>Distilled water</li><li>Demineralized water</li><li>Heavily filtered water that removes nearly all minerals</li></ul>
<p>Water with little or no mineral content may affect the taste of your coffee and how the machine is designed to operate.</p>
<p>Water that lacks in mineral content can contribute to sourness and acidic taste in the espresso, it is recommended to use water that has mild amount of minerals like soft filtered water, spring water, well water, these types of water ideally measure in between 50-150 ppm (parts permillion) in dissolved solids.</p>
<h2>Can I Use Reverse Osmosis (RO) Water?</h2>
<p>Avoid using RO water if the filtration process removes nearly all of its mineral content.</p>
<p>For applicable models, RO water may be suitable if some mineral content has been added back to the finished water. Follow the water recommendations in the instruction manual for your specific machine.</p>
<h2>Why Does Water Hardness Matter?</h2>
<p>Hard water can contribute to mineral buildup inside your espresso machine over time. Mineral buildup can affect brewing flow, temperature, machine performance, and the taste of your espresso.</p>
<p>Using the water filter supplied with your machine and descaling when required can help reduce the effects of mineral buildup.</p>
<p>If your machine includes a water hardness setting, setting it correctly also helps determine when descaling or other maintenance is needed.</p>
<h2>Things to Check</h2>
<ol><li><b>Check your water hardness.</b>
<ul><li>If your machine includes a water hardness test strip, test the water you plan to use.</li><li>Set the machine&#39;s water hardness level according to the instructions for your model, where applicable.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Choose an alternative water source if needed.</b>
<ul><li>If your water is particularly hard, your instruction manual may recommend filtered water, bottled spring water, or mineral water.</li><li>Avoid water with little or no mineral content.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Retest after changing water sources.</b>
<ul><li>Test the hardness of the new water.</li><li>Enter or set the new water hardness level on your machine, where applicable.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Maintain the water filter and descale as required.</b>
<ul><li>If your espresso machine includes a water filter, replace it according to the instructions for your specific model.</li><li>Water filter replacement intervals vary by machine, so follow the replacement reminder or maintenance schedule provided for your model.</li><li>Descale the machine according to its maintenance instructions.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>Using water with an appropriate mineral content and hardness can help support consistent espresso quality and reduce mineral buildup. Always follow the water, filtration, and descaling recommendations in the instruction manual for your specific espresso machine.</p>
<h2>Notes &amp; Tips</h2>
<ul><li>Use fresh, cold water when filling the water tank.</li><li>Do not assume that highly purified water is better for an espresso machine. Water with little or no mineral content may not be suitable.</li><li>Replacing the water filter as recommended can help reduce mineral buildup and may reduce how frequently the machine needs to be descaled.</li></ul>

<div><small>Video walkthrough</small></div>
</div>
<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>Dialing in means adjusting your coffee preparation to get a balanced espresso extraction.</p>
<p>Coffee beans can behave differently depending on their roast, freshness, and grind. When you open a new bag of coffee, you may need to make a few adjustments before finding the grind setting that works best.</p>
<p>The key is to make one adjustment at a time, pull another shot, and use the results to guide your next adjustment.</p>
<h2>Procedure</h2>
<ol><li><strong>Start with fresh coffee beans</strong>
<ul><li>Look for coffee with a Roasted On date rather than only a Best Before or Use By date.</li><li>Use freshly roasted whole coffee beans.</li><li>Where specified for your machine, Breville recommends beans approximately<strong> </strong>5–30 days after the roast date.</li><li>Grind your coffee immediately before brewing when possible.</li></ul>
<p>Coffee that is extremely fresh may behave differently as it releases naturally occurring gases, while older coffee may extract quickly and produce less crema.</p>
</li><li><b>Choose the right filter basket</b>
<ul><li>Single wall filter basket: Use when grinding fresh whole coffee beans. Single wall baskets give you greater control over extraction by allowing you to adjust grind size, dose, and coffee preparation.</li><li>Dual wall filter basket<b>:</b> Use with pre-ground coffee or coffee that is older or has an unknown roast date. Dual wall baskets help regulate pressure and make extraction less dependent on grind size, dose, tamp, and coffee freshness.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Start with the grind size</b>
<ul><li>A coarser grind allows water to pass through the coffee more quickly.</li><li>A finer grind slows the water as it passes through the coffee.</li><li>If you are unsure where to begin, start near the middle of your machine&#39;s grind range and pull a test shot.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check the coffee dose</b>
<ul><li>Too much coffee: Can restrict water flow, causing the espresso to extract too slowly or produce very little coffee.</li><li>Too little coffee: Can allow water to pass through too quickly, resulting in a fast, thin, or watery espresso.</li><li>Use the recommended dose for your machine and filter basket.</li><li>If your machine includes a Razor™ precision dose trimming tool, use it after tamping to help check that the coffee is at the correct level.</li><li>If your machine has assisted or automatic dosing, follow the dose guidance provided by the machine.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Tamp the coffee evenly</b>
<ul><li>For machines with manual tamping, distribute the ground coffee evenly before tamping.</li><li>Tamp straight down using consistent pressure so the surface of the coffee is flat and level.</li><li>Keep your dose and tamp consistent so it is easier to determine whether the grind size needs to change.</li><li>If your machine has assisted or automatic tamping, follow the machine&#39;s tamping guidance.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Pull a test shot</b>
<ul><li>Insert and securely lock the portafilter into the group head.</li><li>Start an extraction and watch how the espresso flows.</li><li>For models that use the traditional Breville extraction guide, a balanced extraction generally begins flowing after approximately 8–12 seconds.</li><li>The espresso should flow slowly and steadily, similar to<strong> </strong>warm honey.</li><li>Look for a golden-brown crema.</li><li>A traditional extraction generally takes approximately 25–30 seconds.</li></ul>
<p>These are useful guides rather than requirements for every coffee. Taste and your personal preference are also important when dialing in espresso.</p>
</li><li><b>If the espresso flows too quickly</b>
<ul><li>A shot that starts quickly, runs fast or watery, or produces too much espresso may be under-extracted.</li><li>You may also notice thin or pale crema, weak or watery espresso, or a sharp or underdeveloped flavour.</li><li>Check that you are using the correct dose.</li><li>Adjust the grind slightly finer.</li><li>Pull another shot and check the extraction again.</li></ul>
<p>A finer grind creates more resistance and slows the flow of water through the coffee.</p>
</li><li><b>If the espresso flows too slowly</b>
<ul><li>A shot that drips slowly, produces very little coffee, or struggles to flow from the portafilter may be over-extracted.</li><li>You may also notice very dark crema, a dark espresso, or a bitter or overly intense flavour.</li><li>Check that there is not too much coffee in the filter basket.</li><li>Adjust the grind slightly coarser.</li><li>Pull another shot and check the extraction again.</li></ul>
<p>A coarser grind creates less resistance and allows water to move through the coffee more easily.</p>
</li><li><b>Make one adjustment at a time</b>
<ul><li>Keep your coffee dose consistent.</li><li>Keep your tamping method consistent.</li><li>Adjust the grind size.</li><li>Pull another shot.</li><li>Check the flow and taste.</li><li>Make another small adjustment if needed.</li></ul>
<p>Avoid changing the grind size, dose, and tamp all at once. Changing one variable at a time makes it easier to understand how each adjustment affects the espresso.</p>
</li></ol>
<h2>When you change coffee beans</h2>
<p>You may need to dial in your espresso again whenever you:</p>
<ul><li>Open a new bag of coffee.</li><li>Change coffee beans or roast.</li><li>Switch between single and double filter baskets.</li><li>Notice the espresso beginning to flow faster or slower as your beans age.</li></ul>
<p>There is not one grind setting that works for every coffee. Small adjustments over time are a normal part of making espresso.</p>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>If changing the grind does not resolve the issue, check the other factors that can affect water flow and extraction:</p>
<ul><li>Check that the filter basket openings are clean and clear.</li><li>Make sure the grinder is operating normally.</li><li>Check that water flows normally from the brew head without the portafilter installed.</li><li>Complete any cleaning or descaling maintenance that is due for your machine.</li></ul>
<p>If there is little or no water flow even with the portafilter removed, troubleshoot the machine&#39;s water flow rather than continuing to adjust the coffee.</p>
<h2>Notes &amp; Tips</h2>
<ul><li>Use extraction time and appearance as guides rather than absolute requirements.</li><li>Taste and personal preference are important when dialing in espresso.</li><li>Keep the dose and tamp consistent while adjusting the grind size.</li></ul>

<div><small>Video walkthrough</small></div>
</div>
<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>A wavy or uneven imprint on a tamped coffee puck does not always indicate a defect. In many cases, the result is related to the grind setting, coffee dose, or coffee grounds moving in the filter basket during tamping.</p>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<ul><li>The tamped coffee puck has a wavy or uneven surface.</li><li>The surface may remain uneven after tamping.</li><li>Coffee grounds may appear to move or spin in the filter basket during tamping.</li></ul>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>A wavy tamp imprint can be caused by an incorrect coffee dose, a grind size that is not properly dialed in, or coffee grounds spinning in the filter basket during tamping.</p>
<h2>Procedure</h2>
<ol><li><b>Adjust the grind size finer</b>
<ul><li>Shift the grind to a finer setting. This usually resolves the issue in most cases, although the exact adjustment depends on the current grind setting.</li><li>Dose the coffee again and observe the tamp result.</li><li>Whether the surface is flat or still wavy, pull the shot. This helps determine how much finer the grind should be to improve both tamp and shot quality.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check the upper burr and tamping fan assembly</b>
<ul><li>Adjust the grind size to the coarsest setting before removing the upper burr.</li><li>Empty the bean hopper and grind out any remaining coffee in the grinder.</li><li>Remove the bean hopper and upper burr.</li><li>Vacuum out the grinder so coffee crumbs are not in the way when replacing the upper burr.</li><li>Align the upper burr and press down firmly to ensure it is fully seated.</li><li>Rotate the upper burr to the lock position until you feel or hear it click into position.</li><li>Remove the tamping fan and coupling.</li><li>Re-insert the coupling by pushing upward firmly until you feel or hear it click into position.</li><li>Re-attach the tamping fan to the coupling by pushing upward until it makes contact and stays attached magnetically.</li><li>Adjust the grind size to the mid-range, such as 22–23, and test the first dose.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check for overdosing</b>
<ul><li>Inspect the tamping fan connector to determine how many threads are visible.</li><li>Fewer visible threads mean more coffee is dosed.</li><li>More visible threads mean less coffee is dosed.</li><li>Adjust the connector to expose 3–4 threads as the recommended setting.</li><li>For additional guidance, see the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIzLPqGOjPc&amp;t=1s" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">video on adjusting the dosing thread</a>.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Lightly moisten the filter basket</b>
<ul><li>Run water over the filter basket using the brew head cup button before activating the grinder.</li><li>Lightly moisten the basket so the grounds adhere more readily to the basket.</li><li>This can help reduce ground movement during tamping.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>As you continue dialing in the beans and adjusting the grind size, the tamped surface should become more uniform and flat. Pulling the shot while making adjustments helps determine the grind setting needed to improve both the tamp result and shot quality.</p>
<h2>Notes &amp; Tips</h2>
<ul><li>A wavy tamp imprint does not necessarily indicate a defect.</li><li>An overly coarse grind can contribute to a wavy tamp.</li><li>Recommended tamping fan connector setting: expose 3–4 threads.</li><li>A mid-range grind setting, such as 22–23, can be used for the first test dose after reseating the upper burr and tamping fan assembly.</li><li>See the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nohLVqbfrdM&amp;t=12s" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">video on troubleshooting wavy tamps</a> for additional guidance.</li></ul>

Grinder burrs have sharp edges. Handle them carefully and avoid touching the cutting surfaces.</td></tr></tbody></table>
<h3>Overview</h3>
<p>If your coffee grounds remain too coarse even after selecting a fine grind setting, first dial in your espresso using the standard grind-size control. If you still cannot achieve a fine enough grind, check that the upper burr is correctly installed and adjust the upper burr if needed.</p>
<h3>Symptoms</h3>
<ul><li>Coffee remains too coarse at a fine grind setting.</li><li>Changing the grind setting makes little or no noticeable difference.</li><li>Espresso flows too quickly even after selecting a finer grind.</li></ul>
<h3>Cause</h3>
<p>The grinder may need further dialing in, the upper burr may not be fully seated or locked, or the adjustable upper burr may need to be moved toward a finer range. If a burr was recently replaced, an incompatible replacement part may also affect the available grind range.</p>
<h3>Procedure</h3>
<ol><li><b>Dial in the grind size</b>
<ul><li>Start near the middle of the available grind range.</li><li>Pull an espresso shot and observe the extraction.</li><li>If the espresso flows too quickly, adjust the grind finer.</li><li>Continue making small adjustments until you achieve the desired extraction.</li><li>Keep in mind that the correct setting can vary with the coffee beans, roast, and freshness. It may take several attempts to find the correct grind size when using a new coffee.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check that the upper burr is installed correctly</b>
<ul><li>Empty the bean hopper.</li><li>Reinstall the empty hopper and run the grinder until the remaining beans have cleared.</li><li>Move the grind-size control to the coarsest setting.</li><li>Turn the product off and unplug it.</li><li>Unlock and remove the bean hopper.</li><li>Unlock and remove the upper burr.</li><li>Brush away coffee grounds around the upper and lower burrs.</li><li>Reinstall the upper burr, making sure it is correctly aligned.</li><li>Turn the upper burr into the <b>LOCK</b> position and make sure it is fully seated.</li><li>Reinstall and lock the bean hopper.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Compare a fine and coarse grind</b>
<ul><li>Grind a small amount of coffee using a fine setting.</li><li>Note the texture of the grounds.</li><li>Change to a coarse setting.</li><li>Grind another small amount and compare the two samples.</li><li>There should be a noticeable difference between the fine and coarse settings.</li><li>If there is little or no difference, recheck that the upper burr is correctly installed and locked.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Adjust the upper burr for a finer grind</b>
<ul><li>If the upper burr is correctly installed but the grind is still not fine enough, adjust the upper burr on compatible models.</li><li>Empty the bean hopper and run the grinder until empty.</li><li>Turn the product off and unplug it.</li><li>Remove the bean hopper.</li><li>Unlock and remove the upper burr.</li><li>Remove the wire handle from both sides of the upper burr.</li><li>Adjust the burr one number toward the finer setting.</li><li>Reinsert the wire handle.</li><li>Reinstall and securely lock the upper burr.</li><li>Reinstall and lock the bean hopper.</li><li>Return the external grind-size control to approximately the middle of its range.</li><li>Grind a small amount of coffee and dial in the espresso again.</li><li>Make only one upper-burr adjustment at a time. After each adjustment, use the standard grind-size control to dial in the coffee before changing the upper burr again.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check recently replaced burrs</b>
<ul><li>If the issue began after an upper or lower burr was replaced, confirm that the replacement burr is the correct part for the grinder.</li><li>Incompatible grinder components may prevent the grinder from producing the expected grind range.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h3>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h3>
<p>After reinstalling or adjusting the upper burr, there should be a noticeable difference between fine and coarse grind settings. If the coffee remains unusually coarse after dialing in the grind, cleaning and correctly reinstalling the upper burr, checking the fine-to-coarse range, adjusting the upper burr where applicable, and confirming any replacement burrs are correct, contact Customer Support for further assistance.</p>
<h3>Notes &amp; Tips</h3>
<ul><li>There is no single grind setting that works for every coffee.

<ul><li>Regular burr cleaning helps maintain consistent grinding performance.</li><li>If the upper burr is difficult to remove, move the grind setting toward a coarser setting first where supported by the model.</li><li>Keep coffee beans and grinder components dry to help prevent clumping and blockages.</li></ul>

Grinder is clogged, making a clicking noise, or not dispensing coffee

<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>Seeing steam or condensation while using a countertop oven is usually normal. Countertop ovens are designed to vent excess moisture, including through gaps around the oven door and the upper corners of the door.</p>
<p>Steam and condensation may be more noticeable when cooking foods with a high moisture content, such as vegetables, bread, frozen foods, or foods prepared with liquids.</p>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<ul><li>Steam escapes around the oven door.</li><li>Condensation forms near the upper door gap or control panel area.</li><li>Water runs down the oven or collects near the appliance.</li><li>Smoke appears along with steam during cooking.</li><li>A visible gap or light can be seen around the oven door, especially near the upper corners.</li></ul>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>Foods release moisture during cooking. The oven allows this moisture to escape so food can crisp, bake, roast, toast, broil, dehydrate, or air fry effectively. Escaping moisture can condense near the door or control panel, especially when cooking high-moisture foods or during cooler weather.</p>
<p>Smoke may occur when food particles, oil, cheese, fat, or other drippings come into contact with the heating elements or collect on the crumb tray.</p>
<h2>Things to Check</h2>
<ol><li><b>Allow enough space around the oven.</b>
<ul><li>Keep at least 4 inches of clearance on each side and at the back of the oven.</li><li>Keep at least 6 inches of clearance above the oven.</li><li>Maintain this clearance from walls and other appliances so heat and steam can ventilate properly.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Consider the food being cooked.</b>
<ul><li>Foods with more water or moisture can produce more visible steam and condensation.</li><li>More condensation may be noticeable during air fry, dehydrate, toast, and roast functions.</li><li>Steam is also common when roasting vegetables, defrosting or toasting bread, or cooking foods with liquids.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check the door if condensation is excessive.</b>
<ul><li>Make sure the door closes firmly and properly.</li><li>Check the door seal for visible damage.</li><li>A gap around the oven door, including a larger gap near the upper corners, is normal and by design. You may also be able to see oven light through this gap.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Clean food and grease that may cause smoke.</b>
<ul><li>Check for food particles, cheese, oil, fat, or other drippings on the crumb tray or heating elements.</li><li>Clean the crumb tray after cooking if food or grease has collected on it.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Reduce drips when air frying fatty or marinated foods.</b>
<ul><li>Consider using the baking pan and broiling rack instead of the air fry basket.</li><li>This can help reduce drips and resulting smoke.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Wipe up condensation after cooking.</b>
<ul><li>Water may collect or puddle as steam condenses around the upper door gap or nearby areas.</li><li>Wipe up the water after cooking.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Why is the oven door not fully sealed?</h2>
<p>A visible gap around the oven door can be normal and intentional. Foods release different amounts of moisture during cooking, and that steam needs a path out of the oven cavity.</p>
<p>Allowing moisture to escape helps food crisp and cook as intended rather than trapping excess steam inside the oven. Because countertop ovens have relatively small cooking cavities, steam may escape from several areas around the door. The door can still be properly closed and the oven can continue to operate as expected.</p>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>Steam and some condensation are expected during normal countertop oven operation, particularly with high-moisture foods. If condensation is excessive, confirm that the oven has adequate clearance and that the door closes properly without visible damage to the door seal.</p>
<p>If smoke occurs, check for food particles or grease on the crumb tray or heating elements and clean the crumb tray after cooking.</p>

Cooker Taking a Long Time to Reach Pressure or not Reaching Pressure

<p>If espresso is flowing from only one side of the portafilter during extraction, it does not necessarily mean there is a problem with the machine. The position of the machine, coffee distribution, tamping, filter basket, and extraction can all affect how espresso flows from the portafilter spouts.</p>
<h2>Things to Check</h2>
<ol><li><b>Make sure the machine is level</b>
<ul><li>Place the espresso machine on a flat, level surface.</li><li>If the machine or countertop is uneven, espresso may favor one side of the portafilter as it flows into the cup.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Distribute the coffee evenly</b>
<ul><li>Before tamping, make sure the ground coffee is evenly distributed throughout the filter basket.</li><li>For machines without an assisted tamping system, gently tap the portafilter to distribute the coffee evenly or use a coffee distribution tool.</li><li>Make sure the coffee bed is level before tamping. </li><li>Uneven distribution can cause water to flow more easily through one area of the coffee puck. </li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check your tamp</b>
<ul><li>Tamp the coffee evenly and level according to the instructions for your machine. An uneven coffee puck can contribute to uneven extraction.</li><li>If your machine has an assisted or automatic tamping system, follow the tamping guidance provided for the machine.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>If you have a Bambino™ or Bambino® Plus, check the dual-wall filter basket</b>
<ul><li>If you are using a dual-wall filter basket, check the exit hole on the underside of the basket. The exit hole should be centred.</li><li>If the exit hole is offset or positioned near the edge, the basket may not be the correct one for the machine and can cause espresso to favor one side of the portafilter.

<ul><li><strong>2 Cup:</strong> SP0024833</li><li><strong>1 Cup:</strong> SP0024834</li></ul>
</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Check for over-extraction</b>
<ul><li>If the shot is extracting too slowly, adjust the espresso settings and test another extraction.</li><li>A slow or restricted extraction can affect how espresso exits the portafilter spouts.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Clean the filter basket and portafilter</b>
<ul><li>Coffee residue or a blocked filter basket can affect how espresso flows from the portafilter.</li><li><span> </span>Remove the filter basket from the portafilter.</li><li>Rinse the filter basket and portafilter thoroughly under hot water to remove coffee oils and residue.</li><li>Check the openings in the filter basket for blockages. If needed, use the pin on the supplied cleaning tool to carefully clear blocked openings.</li><li>Rinse everything thoroughly and reinstall the filter basket.</li></ul>
</li><li><strong>If you have an oracle model, check the extraction</strong>
<ul><li> If the shot is extracting too slowly, dial in the espresso and test another extraction.</li></ul>

<p>If your espresso machine is producing less foam than expected or is no longer frothing milk as it did before, follow these troubleshooting steps to check the automatic steam settings, descale the machine, clean the steam wand, and test frothing performance.<br><br></p>
<ol><li><b>Check the automatic steam settings</b>
<ul><li>Make sure you are using the automatic steam function.</li><li>Check the machine&#39;s milk texture or microfoam setting.</li><li>Increase the texture setting to a higher number and test the steam function again.</li><li>The available settings and numbering may vary by model.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li><b>Descale the machine</b>
<ul><li>If the machine is more than one month old and has not been descaled, mineral build-up may be affecting steam pressure and performance.</li><li>Follow the manufacturer&#39;s descaling instructions.</li><li>Use the appropriate descaling solution for your machine.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li><b>Clean the steam wand tip</b>
<ul><li>Carefully remove the steam wand tip.</li><li>Inspect the tip for milk residue or blocked steam holes.</li><li>Use the steam wand cleaning tool to clear each exit hole. You should be able to see that each opening is clear.</li><li>If there is heavy build-up, soak the steam wand tip in warm, soapy water for at least 20 minutes.</li><li>Alternatively, dissolve one cleaning tablet in a cup of hot water and soak the tip in the solution.</li><li>Reassemble the steam wand tip after cleaning.</li><li>Run a short steam purge to clear any remaining debris.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li><b>Prepare an automatic steam function test</b>
<ul><li>Gather cold water, regular dish soap, two clear glass cups, and a frothing jug.</li><li>Fill the frothing jug with cold water to the MAX line.</li><li>Add 3 drops of dish soap.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li><b>Test the highest texture setting</b>
<ul><li>Set the milk texture setting to its highest level.</li><li>Run a complete automatic steam cycle.</li><li>When the cycle finishes, pour the textured solution into one of the clear glass cups.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li><b>Test the lowest texture setting</b>
<ul><li>Rinse the frothing jug.</li><li>Refill it with cold water to the MAX line and add 3 drops of dish soap.</li><li>Set the milk texture setting to its lowest level.</li><li>Run another complete automatic steam cycle.</li><li>Pour the second solution into the other clear glass cup.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li><b>Compare the results</b>
<ul><li>The highest texture setting should produce thicker foam.</li><li>The lowest texture setting should produce less foam.</li><li>If there is a noticeable difference in foam levels, the automatic steam function is operating correctly.</li><li>If there is little or no difference between the two tests, further maintenance or service may be required.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<p>If the high and low texture tests produce noticeably different foam levels, the machine&#39;s automatic steam function is working as expected. Regular steam wand cleaning and descaling can help maintain consistent frothing performance.</p>
<p>If there is no noticeable difference between the highest and lowest texture settings, or if poor frothing continues after cleaning and descaling, contact support for further assistance.</p>
<h2></h2>
<h2>Notes &amp; Tips</h2>
<ul><li>Keep the steam wand tip clean and make sure all steam holes remain unobstructed.</li><li>Descale the machine regularly according to the manufacturer&#39;s recommendations.</li><li>When performing the diagnostic test, use the same amount of cold water and exactly 3 drops of dish soap for both tests so the results can be compared accurately.</li></ul>

<h3 class="PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer">How to run the cleaning cycle on the Bambino Plus<span class="PDq2pG_selectionAnchor"></span></h3>
<p>The cleaning cycle is an essential maintenance step for keeping the group head clean and is separate from the descaling cycle.</p>
<p>For this process, you will need:</p>
<ul><li>1-cup dual-wall filter basket</li><li>Provided cleaning disk</li><li>1 cleaning tablet</li><li>2-litre container<br><br></li></ul>
<p>Your Bambino Plus will detect when a cleaning cycle is needed approximately every 200 extractions. This is indicated by the 1-cup and 2-cup buttons flashing alternately.<br><br></p>
<p>To prepare the machine for the cleaning cycle:</p>
<ol><li>Insert the 1-cup dual-wall filter basket into the portafilter.</li><li>Insert the provided cleaning disk.</li><li>Place one cleaning tablet onto the cleaning disk.</li><li>Lock the portafilter into the group head.</li><li>Empty the drip tray, then reattach it to the machine.</li><li>Place a 2-litre container underneath the group head.</li><li>Remove the water tank and lid.</li><li>Fill the water tank to the MAX line.</li><li>Reattach the water tank, making sure it is properly secured, then replace the lid.<br><br><br></li></ol>
<p>To start the cleaning cycle:<br><br></p>
<ol><li>Press and hold the 1-cup and 2-cup buttons simultaneously for approximately 5 seconds, or until both buttons are illuminated solid.</li><li>Press either the 1-cup or 2-cup button once to activate the cleaning cycle.</li><li>The 1-cup and 2-cup buttons will begin flashing alternately, indicating that the cleaning cycle is in progress.<br><br></li></ol>
<p>During the cleaning cycle, the machine will purge water intermittently.<br><br></p>
<p>If your cleaning disk has a hole, you will see water intermittently flow from the group head through the portafilter spouts.<br><br></p>
<p>If your cleaning disk does not have a hole, you will see little to no water flow from the group head through the portafilter spouts.<br><br></p>
<p>Allow approximately 5 minutes for the cleaning cycle to complete. The cycle is finished when the machine returns to ready mode and all lights are illuminated solid.<br><br></p>
<p>Do not stop or interrupt the cleaning cycle. If the cycle is interrupted, you will need to restart the process.<br><br></p>
<p>Once the machine has returned to ready mode, remove and rinse the:</p>
<ul><li>Portafilter</li><li>Filter basket</li><li>Cleaning disk</li><li>Drip tray<br><br></li></ul>
<p>You have now successfully completed the cleaning cycle on your Bambino Plus.</p>

<h4>If you are having issues connecting your appliance to Wi-Fi or the cloud, here are some things to check:</h4>
<ol><li>
<h4><strong>Make sure the Wi-Fi access point supports the following configuration</strong>:</h4>
<ul><li>
<p>Access point frequency: 2.4GHz.</p>
<ul><li>
<p>If your Wi-Fi access point (AP) is set up for multi-frequency you may need to separate into individual APs or create a 2.4GHz only AP. It is highly recommended to have a dedicated 2.4GHz AP.</p>
</li></ul>
</li><li>
<p>Wireless standard: 802.11 n/g/b.</p>
</li><li>
<p>Supported security protocols: WPA, WPA2, WEP, OPEN.</p>
</li><li>
<p>The router / home network needs to automatically assign an IP address to the appliance. (E.g. by DHCP.)</p>
</li><li>Maximum size / length of the SSID name (WiFi access point name) is 31 characters. Maximum size / length of the access point password is 63 characters.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Power off+on / restart everything</strong>: phone / tablet, router / modem, connected appliance.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Make sure the appliance is close enough to the router</strong>.</h4>
<ul><li>
<p>Low signal strength / interference can affect whether the appliance can connect / stay connected.<br><br></p>
</li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Verify that the router / modem is online and is connected to the Internet</strong>. (E.g. are other devices able to connect to Wi-Fi and use the Internet?)</h4>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Make sure your phone / tablet is connected to the Internet</strong>.</h4>
<ul><li>The app needs to be able to confirm the appliance&#39;s successful connection to the cloud. If having issues, try switching between mobile data and WiFi.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Make sure nothing in the router&#39;s configuration can block the connected device&#39;s access to the cloud</strong>.</h4>
<ul><li>For example: VPN / Firewall settings. Try temporarily disabling your firewall or VPN and retry connecting. You may also need to make sure that ports 443, 8443, 8080, and 8883 are not blocked by your firewall. (May be referred to as &#39;Online security&#39;, &#39;Security suite&#39;, etc.) For the original Joule Sous-Vide, ports used are 80, 443, and 69.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Some networks will automatically block a device that it doesn&#39;t recognise</strong>.</h4>
<ul><li>If this is the case, then refer to your network manufacturer&#39;s manual / guide for how to unblock the device.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Do not use an access point with a captive portal</strong>. (a website you must pass through to log in and access the network.)</h4>
<ul><li>You will need to connect your appliance to an alternate access point that doesn&#39;t have a captive portal. E.g. mobile / personal hotspot.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Try connecting your appliance to a mobile or personal hotspot</strong>.</h4>
<ul><li>Make sure your hotspot is setup to broadcast a 2.4GHz access point.</li><li>
<p>On an iOS device, in Settings select &quot;Personal Hotspot&quot; and slide the &quot;Maximize Compatibility&quot; option to the ON position (if shown.)</p>
</li><li>
<p>For Android devices, check your phone&#39;s individual hotspot settings and make sure it setup for 2.4GHz. For Android 12+ devices, make sure to enable the &quot;Extend Compatibility&quot; or &quot;Maximize Compatibility&quot; option.<br><br></p>
</li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>If your router / access point is setup to support Wi-Fi 6.</strong></h4>
<ul><li><strong></strong>You may need to disable any Wi-Fi 6 related settings for the 2.4GHz band. This is especially true with the original Joule Sous-Vide.</li><li>Please refer to your ISP&#39;s and network hardware&#39;s specific setup / support information on how to do this.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Does your network require adding a device&#39;s MAC address to an allow list for it to connect</strong>?</h4>
<ul><li>Click <strong><a href="/s/article-detail-public?knowArtId=kA08b000000D39oCAC&amp;articleLanguage=en_NZ" target="_self">here</a></strong> for instructions on how to find the MAC address of your connected device.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>If you&#39;re having trouble connecting to an access point setup for dual or multi frequency</strong> (one access point (SSID) which connects both 5 and 2.4GHz, or more, frequencies simultaneously), you may need to try separating them into different access points (SSIDs).</h4>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Disable Smart Connect or Band Steering</strong></h4>
<ul><li>Band steering is a router feature that automatically assigns Wi-Fi devices to the best available wireless network, usually based on the distance from the access point. Our connected appliances are 2.4GHz only and may not connect or stay connected to this setup.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Disable low battery / low power / battery saver mode on your smart phone / tablet.</strong></h4>
<ul><li><strong></strong>Having these modes enabled can affect connection reliability.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><strong>Additional items to try / check:</strong></h4>

<h2><strong>Joule™ Turbo Sous-Vide / </strong><strong>Joule™ Sous-Vide</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>Minimum / Maximum Water Depth</strong></h3>
<p>Minimum water depth<br>1.5 in (38 mm)<br> </p>
<p>Maximum water depth<br>8 in (203 mm)<br> </p>
<p>In a well-insulated, covered container, your Joule™ Turbo Sous Vide / original Sous Vide can heat up to 10 gallons (40 litres) of water. In a covered pot, it can heat about 5 gallons (20 litres). When you’re cooking without a cover, we generally recommend limiting water volume to about 2.5 gallons (10 litres).<br><br>Note: the minimum and maximum depths may also be marked on your sous vide circulator, depending on the model.</p>

<h2>Why Isn’t the Paddle Moving? </h2>
<p>If you activated the PRE-COOL mode, the paddle will not churn.</p>
<p>During PRE-COOL:</p>
<ul><li>The bowl cools</li><li>The paddle does not spin</li></ul>
<p>Once PRE-COOL finishes, press START to begin churning.</p>
<div><hr></hr></div>
<h2>Other Possible Causes</h2>
<h3>1. Bowl or Paddle Is Wet</h3>
<p>Any moisture on the outside of the bowl or on/inside the paddle can freeze and prevent movement.</p>
<p>Solution:</p>
<ul><li>Turn off the machine</li><li>Allow any ice buildup to melt</li><li>Dry all parts completely</li><li>Reassemble and restart</li><li>Ensure that the paddle and bowl are completely dry before use. </li></ul>
<h3>2. Incorrect Assembly</h3>
<p>Ensure:</p>
<ol start="1"><li>Bowl is fully seated in the unit</li><li>Paddle is properly installed</li><li>Lid is locked into place
<ol><li>If the lid is hard to lock into place, the paddle may not be all the way pressed down, or the bowl may be slightly out of place. </li></ol>
</li></ol>
<h3>3. Ice Cream Maker Is Paused </h3>
<p>Press START/PAUSE to resume operation.</p>
<h3>4. Ice Cream Maker is in keep cool mode </h3>
<p>During keep cool mode, the paddle will churn sometimes, but not as regularly as it did when making the ice cream. </p>
<p> </p>

<h2><strong>Joule</strong>™<strong> Oven Air Fryer Pro</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>Can&#39;t pair with older iOS devices (iPhone 6s / 6s plus / iPad 4 Mini and older)</strong></h3>
<p>In earlier versions of the oven&#39;s firmware, trying to pair with the oven with an older iOS device would fail. (E.g. iPhone 6s, 6s plus, iPad 4 Mini or older.) You can work around this issue by using an alternate phone or tablet to pair and connect the oven to the cloud. (E.g. newer iPhones / iPads or any supported Android device.) Once connected to the cloud, the firmware will be updated and correct this issue. You will then be able to use your iOS device to pair / connect to the oven.<br><br>If you do not have access to an alternate device, please contact support by clicking <a href="https://support.breville.com" target="_self">here</a>.</p>

<h2><strong>Joule™ Turbo Sous-Vide / </strong><strong>Joule™ Sous-Vide</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>Getting a Tipped Over message?</strong></h3>
<p>A Tipped Over message happens when your Joule™ Turbo Sous Vide / original Sous Vide is detected to be at a 45 degree or greater angle past vertical. It is intended to stop a cook in the case of the circulator falling over.<br> </p>
<p>The circulator senses its angle with 3-axis accelerometer. Inside the accelerometer, there is a chunk of material called a seismic mass. This mass reacts to gravity or other forces acting on the circulator and with some tiny position sensors it can then calculate which way is down.<br> </p>
<p>If your circulator is sending a Tipped Over message despite it being upright, it&#39;s likely that there may an issue with the accelerometer / seismic mass.<br> </p>
<p>The seismic mass, being a mechanical part, may unintentionally stick in one or more of the axes. This results in a frozen reading which will not react to changes in orientation and in turn may trigger the Tipped Over message.<br><br> </p>
<h3 id="TippedOverErrors-Troubleshooting"><strong>Troubleshooting</strong></h3>
<p>First, make sure your Sous Vide circulator is updated to the latest firmware. There will be an alert in the Breville+ app to indicate an update is available.<br> </p>
<p>Then, a method we can recommend involves lightly striking / tapping your sous vide circulator to attempt to unstick the seismic mass. As the sensor has multiple axes, it&#39;s recommended to tap at different angles.<br> </p>
<p><strong>Please note, as this is part of an expensive cooking appliance, care must be taken not to strike too hard! </strong><br> </p>
<ol><li>Unplug the circulator from any outlets.</li><li>If the circulator is hot, please allow it to cool to room temperature.</li><li>Hold the circulator by the bottom half, taking care the cord is not hanging loosely or in the way.</li><li>Find a sturdy worktop and protect it with padding, e.g. a towel. You can also use the palm of your other hand.</li><li>Tap the front of the circulator on padded worktop / in palm of hand (&#39;front&#39; is the same side the water comes out.)</li><li>Tap the side of the circulator on padded worktop / in palm of hand.</li><li>Tap the bottom of the circulator on padded worktop / in palm of hand. Please do this straight down so as not to accidentally skew the circulator&#39;s magnetic foot.<br> </li></ol>

<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>If “FILL” appears during the initial flush even when the water tank is full, the machine may have been placed into zero water calibration mode by accident. Use the steps below to reset the calibration and complete setup so the brewer detects water normally.</p>
<h2>Symptoms</h2>
<ul><li>“FILL” appears during the initial flush even though the water tank is full.</li></ul>
<h2>Cause</h2>
<p>Zero water calibration mode was accidentally activated, which can prevent the brewer from detecting water flow during the initial flush.</p>
<h2>Procedure</h2>
<ol><li><b>Reseat the water tank</b>
<ul><li>Remove the water tank and empty it.</li><li>Place the empty tank back onto the machine and make sure it seats fully and clicks into place against the body of the brewer.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Enter reset mode</b>
<ul><li>Press and hold the <b>COG</b> button and the <b>DELAY START</b> button at the same time for about <b>5 seconds</b>.</li><li>Confirm the display shows <b>Hd: 0</b>.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Power cycle the brewer</b>
<ul><li>Unplug the power cord for <b>5 seconds</b>.</li><li>Plug the brewer back in.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Confirm calibration exit / continue setup</b>
<ul><li>Within <b>5 seconds</b> of plugging the brewer back in, press and hold the <b>COG</b> button for <b>3–5 seconds</b> (or until you hear <b>one beep</b>).</li><li>After the beep, set the <b>water hardness level</b> by turning the <b>SELECT</b> dial.</li><li>Press the <b>SELECT</b> dial to confirm the hardness setting.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Run the flush</b>
<ul><li>When the display shows <b>2:00</b>, add <b>30 fl oz</b> (about <b>887 mL</b>) of water to the tank.</li><li>Press the <b>SELECT</b> dial to begin the flush.</li><li>Allow the flush cycle to complete.</li></ul>
</li><li><b>Finish initial setup</b>
<ul><li>Follow the prompts to enter the <b>current time</b>.</li><li>Select your preferred <b>temperature units</b> (degrees).</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<h2>Outcome &amp; Next Steps</h2>
<p>After completing the reset and flush, the brewer should detect water normally and “FILL” should no longer appear during the initial flush. If “FILL” continues to appear with a properly seated tank and confirmed water added, contact Breville Support for further assistance.</p>

<h4 title="How do I turn off Joule (stop cooking) with the top button?"><strong>How do I turn off Joule Sous-Vide (stop cooking) with the top button?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>You can turn off Joule by pressing and holding the top button for one to two seconds. The light will change to the standby white colour to let you know that you have been successful.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="Is Joule waterproof?"><strong>Is Joule waterproof?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>No, but Joule Sous-Vide is water resistant and is completely sealed against short-term, accidental water intrusion. Because of Joule Sous-Vide&#39;s unique design, it will continue to work after an accidental dunk in water.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="What kind of heating element does Joule use?"><strong>What kind of heating element does Joule use?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>Joule Sous-Vide delivers 1100 watts of heating power from a unique, compact heater using thick film technology that operates at 99.8 percent energy efficiency for one of the fastest preheating times on the market.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="How fast will Joule heat water?"><strong>How fast will Joule Sous-Vide heat water?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>
<p>The answer depends on a few factors, so let&#39;s first look at a basic example:</p>
<p>Assuming we&#39;re heating about 6 quarts of water from 60 °F to 140 °F and Joule Sous-Vide operates at almost 99% power efficiency with approximately 1100 watts, you can expect it will take around 15-20 minutes to heat.</p>
<p>Other factors that can affect the overall heating time:</p>
<ul style="list-style-type: disc;"><li>How much water is in the container? More water equals longer heating time.</li><li>What is the container made out of? Different materials will dissipate heat at different rates which can affect the time to heat the water.</li><li>How well insulated is the container? The better insulated, the shorter the heating time as it reduces overall heat dissipation. Using a hot pad on the bottom of the container and/or covering the top of the container can also help reduce heat dissipation.<br><br></li></ul>
</li></ul>
<h4 title="What is Joule made of?"><strong>What is Joule Sous-Vide made of?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>The metal components of Joule are made from surgical-grade stainless steel. All plastic materials are FDA-certified food-safe plastic.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="How do I store Joule?"><strong>How do I store Joule Sous-Vide?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>Due to its small size, Joule Sous-Vide will easily fit in most standard kitchen drawers or cupboards and Joule Sous-Vide’s power cord is designed to wrap around the circulator when not in use.</li><li>When you’re done cooking with your circulator, we recommend using the app to stop it and unplugging the device before storing. We also recommend letting your circulator cool down before handling, as the lower portion of the device will be quite hot after cooking and you may risk burning yourself if you handle Joule Sous-Vide too soon after the cook is completed.</li></ul>

<p>To keep your circulator running smoothly over the long haul, we suggest cleaning it regularly in a vinegar bath. The harder the water is in your area, the more often you will want to clean your Joule.</p>
<p> </p>
<ol><li>
<p>Pour equal parts of water and distilled white vinegar into a small pot.<br> </p>
</li><li>
<p>Add your circulator to the bath and set a running temp to 140 °F / 60 °C, and allow it to heat the water. <br> </p>
</li><li>
<p>When you receive an alert that it has reached that temperature, the cleaning is complete. <br> </p>
</li><li>
<p>Although 140 °F / 60 °C is preferred, running a vinegar circulation bath at a lower temperature can still do wonders for cleaning / de-scaling. (Even at the minimum temp of 68 °F / 20 °C.)<br> </p>
</li><li>
<p>Clean the inside of the circulator. To do so, take off the magnetic foot by twisting it counterclockwise, remove the propeller, and then use a wet sponge or bottle brush to gently wipe out the inside. If food has become cooked on the heater, use a nylon or brass brush to gently clean the interior, being careful around the soft rubber seals at the top of the heating cavity.<br> </p>
</li></ol>
<ul><li>
<p>If it&#39;s been a while since you cleaned your circulator, it is making noise / is noisy more than expected during circulation, taking much longer than expected to heat up the water bath, or you are receiving a <a href="/s/article-detail-public?knowArtId=kA05c000000HQ9ACAW&amp;articleLanguage=en_NZ" target="_self">low water</a> error message, please try a longer vinegar bath using the same steps above but extending the time to 20-30 minutes. <br> </p>
</li><li>
<p>If not circulating at all, or if you are receiving a stuck motor or cooks stopping error,<strong> </strong>run the vinegar circulation bath for 20-30 minutes. If it still stops while running at 140 °F / 60 °C, change the temperature to your circulator&#39;s minimum temp (or room temp) of 68 °F / 20 °C<strong> </strong>and attempt the cleaning cycle again. You can also start by leaving Joule Sous-Vide / Turbo in the vinegar/water solution for about 30 minutes before starting the room temperature cleaning. <br> </p>
</li></ul>
<p><strong>WARNING:</strong> Do not put your Joule™ Sous-Vide / Turbo Sous-Vide in the dishwasher, and do not submerge it in water.<br><br></p>

<p> </p>
<p><strong>If you have any trouble removing the propeller, you can start with a vinegar/water soak and then try the following:</strong><br> </p>
<ul><li>
<p>Removal of the propeller is easiest if it is pulled straight out, which isn&#39;t easy with an average fork. The most consistent way we have found to remove the propeller is to stick one of the outside tines of the fork into the hole on the propeller and use the side of the fork as a lever.  This keeps the fork from bending while being gentle on the propeller.<br> </p>
</li><li>
<p>When attaching the propeller, check to make sure that the flattened part of the motor shaft is lined up with the flattened part of the propeller&#39;s hole. Forcing the propeller on when they are not aligned can damage the propeller.</p>

Joule™ Turbo Sous Vide / Sous Vide | Joule™ How do I clean my circulator?

<p>This can happen on any espresso machine and is typically caused by one of the following:</p>
<ul><li>
<p><strong>The portafilter wasn’t locked in far enough</strong> (fully tightened). Under pressure, it can loosen and work its way out.</p>
</li><li>
<p><strong>A worn grouphead seal.</strong> As the seal wears, its thickness decreases, and it no longer creates a snug fit for the portafilter, making the portafilter more likely to slip.</p>
</li><li><strong>Overdosed filter basket</strong> - If the filter basket is overfilled, it leaves very little to no headspace, the coffee grounds can expand when they come into contact with hot water. That expansion can increase pressure against the shower screen and contribute to the portafilter loosening or backing out of the grouphead. </li><li>Using an incompatible aftermarket portafilter or grouphead seal </li></ul>

<h2><strong>Joule™ Turbo Sous-Vide / </strong><strong>Joule™ Sous-Vide</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>My sous vide is not circulating or heating / unusual motor noise.</strong></h3>
<h4>If your sous vide circulator is attempting to heat but is either not circulating, not heating, cannot start, making an unusual motor noise, we’re hoping you may be willing to try the following to troubleshoot:</h4>
<h4>If possible, start a test cook with your Sous Vide circulator (no food necessary, just put it in a water bath with the top of the outlet exposed and select any guide/time &amp; temp) and check to see whether water is being pumped through the outlet. This will tell you whether the motor and propeller are running/spinning.</h4>
<h4><strong>If the propeller is spinning but your water is not heating</strong>, then please follow <a href="/s/article-detail-public?knowArtId=kA05c000000HQ8bCAG&amp;articleLanguage=en_NZ" target="_self">How do I clean my circulator?</a></h4>
<h4><strong>If your Sous Vide is not circulating, cannot start, making an unusual motor noise, please try the following:</strong></h4>
<ol><li>
<p>Unplug your circulator from the wall and <strong>ensure that it is completely cool</strong> before next step.</p>
</li><li>

<h4 title="What is sous vide, why should I want to cook sous vide, and what foods can I cook sous vide?"><strong>What is sous-vide, why should I want to cook sous-vide, and what foods can I cook sous-vide?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>Imagine you’re cooking a piece of steak. You probably know exactly the colour and texture—the doneness, in other words—you’d like, right? With sous-vide (say “sue veed”), you can get that perfect doneness every time: simply bag your food, drop it in a pot of water, and set your sous-vide tool to the time and temperature that correspond to the doneness you desire.<br><br></li><li>Sous-vide has been gaining popularity recently with home cooks, but it’s been used by professional chefs and restaurants for decades. It’s a relatively simple method that can easily be used at home to improve your favourite meals, remove unnecessary stress from cooking, or free you from focusing on one aspect of your meal—like getting your steak to the doneness you desire without overcooking—so you can focus on a creative side dish or sauce. Once you’re certifiably obsessed with sous-vide, there are tons of amazing things you can make with it, from carnitas to perfect crème brûlée, fried chicken to smoky ribs.<br><br></li><li>Sous-vide recipes you find online tend to focus on steak and fish—two excellent options—but when it comes to cooking in water, proteins are just the beginning. We use sous-vide for veggies, sides, desserts, and even homemade yogurt. <a href="https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/17-foods-you-didn-t-know-you-could-cook-sous-vide" target="_blank">Here are 17 fresh ideas you can try tonight</a>.

<h4 title="How does Joule handle high-temp cooks at elevation?"><strong>How does Joule Sous-Vide handle high-temp cooks at elevation?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>
<p>While at higher elevations, attempting to cook with Joule Sous-Vide at higher temperatures may result in that the circulator either will not start, reaching that temperature takes a long time, or the target temperature is never reached. In general, it&#39;s recommended to insulate the cook setup as best as possible to reduce heat dissipation for high temp cooks, especially at higher elevations.<br><br></p>
</li><li>
<p>Joule also has a built-in atmospheric pressure sensor designed to safeguard the maximum allowable temperature to prevent your water from reaching boiling point. So, as the boiling point of water drops, so does the maximum temperature Joule can operate. (Note: there are some original Joule Sous-Vide circulators that do not have a pressure sensor. These units cap the top cooking temp at 92C/197F unless allowed otherwise by the user in the app.)<br><br></p>
</li><li>
<p>In addition, when cooking with Joule at elevation, you may also need to manually modify the temperature and timing of your cooks to account for this.<br><br></p>
</li><li>Here are links with helpful information on cooking at elevation:<br><br><ul><li>From the USDA: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.fsis.usda.gov/food-safety/safe-food-handling-and-preparation/food-safety-basics/high-altitude-cooking">High Altitude Cooking and Food Safety.</a></li><li><a href="https://www.omnicalculator.com/chemistry/boiling-point-altitude" target="_blank">Boiling Point at Altitude Calculator.</a><br><br></li></ul>
</li></ul>
<h4 title="Do I need to protect my countertop/work surface while cooking with Joule?"><strong>Do I need to protect my countertop/work surface while cooking with Joule?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>We recommend protecting your work surface by placing a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=trivet&amp;tag=delvkitc-20" target="_blank">trivet</a> underneath the pot every time you cook and using whatever precautions you would use when exposing your counter to a dish, pot, or pan you just removed from the oven or stove. While we suggest taking this precaution every time you cook, it’s especially important to protect work surfaces when you are cooking for a long time or at higher temperatures.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="How many pieces of meat or fish can I cook at once? And how do I know if my bag or bath is too crowded?"><strong>How many pieces of meat or fish can I cook at once? And how do I know if my bag or bath is too crowded?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>
<p>You can cook multiple chicken breasts, steaks, or pieces of salmon at one time. The amount you’ll be able to cook largely depends on the vessel you’re using. In a well-insulated, covered container—a cooler, say—your little Joule can heat up to 10 gallons (40 litres) of water. In a covered pot, it can heat about 5 gallons (20 litres). When you’re cooking without a cover, we generally recommend limiting water volume to about 2.5 gallons (10 litres).<br><br></p>
</li><li>
<p>The number of items you’re cooking will not increase cook time as long as the pieces are all separate (not necessarily in separate bags, but in bags that aren’t too crowded). Make sure the pieces of food have plenty of room to move around in the bag—if it’s jam packed, it’s too crowded. You want each piece of food to cook evenly in the surrounding water; if it’s packed tightly in the bag, food will cook unevenly. Same goes for the pot—leave enough room for water to circulate all around the food you’re cooking. If there are lots of bags jammed together, the water can’t do its job.<br><br></p>
</li></ul>
<h4 title="Do I need to get a special kind of pot or pan to cook with Joule?"><strong>Do I need to get a special kind of pot or pan to cook with Joule?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>Joule Sous-Vide will work with almost any kitchen pot or pan, preferably 4 quarts (3.75 litres) or larger. In fact, you can use your circulator in your kitchen sink or anywhere you have access to a standard power outlet. Joule Sous-Vide’s magnetic foot clicks firmly into place in a magnetic steel pot or induction-ready cookware. It also has an easy-to-use, universal clip for just about any other type of container you want to use it with, and we also have a <a href="https://www.breville.com/en-nz/parts-accessories/accessories/cs30001.html?sku=CS30001" target="_blank">Big Clamp available for purchase</a>.<br><br></li><li>And, you can cook sous-vide in a pot on any surface—no need to use precious stovetop space. Remember, however, that when you are cooking with Joule Sous-Vide, the water in your pot will get hot enough to heat your food—so treat your work surface accordingly. Because countertop materials vary widely, we suggest you protect your work surface by placing a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=trivet&amp;tag=delvkitc-20" target="_blank">trivet</a> or potholder underneath the pot or container every time you cook. Use whatever precautions you would when exposing your counter to a dish, pot, or pan you just removed from the oven or stove.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="Is sous vide safe?"><strong>Is sous-vide safe?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>We believe not only that cooking sous-vide is safe, but also that it may reduce the risk of errors often associated with foodborne illness, such as mishandling food or not allowing it to reach the recommended internal temperature. That said, we recognise that cooking food in plastic is concerning to some people. We totally get it—there have been some alarming reports about heating some types of plastic, and the studies, which sometimes conflict with one another, are also often oversimplified in the news. While we cannot predict what may be discovered in the future, we can assure you that we read the research closely, we understand the science, and we believe the risk involved in cooking food at low temperatures in high-quality plastic bags is extremely small. If we didn’t believe that, we wouldn’t encourage you to use them and we wouldn’t use them ourselves when cooking for our families and friends. Want to learn more? Check out our <a href="https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/a-complete-guide-to-sous-vide-packaging-safety-sustainability-and-sourcing" target="_blank">complete guide to sous-vide safety and sustainability</a>.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="Do I need a vacuum sealer to cook sous vide?"><strong>Do I need a vacuum sealer to cook sous-vide?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>“Sous-vide” is French for “under vacuum,” but it’s a very confusing name. In fact, you do not need a pricey vacuum sealer—or even an inexpensive countertop one—to successfully cook food at a low temperature in a water bath. To get started with sous vide, regular old ziplock-style bags will do just fine. In fact, for some applications they are preferable to vacuum-sealed bags. You can also use high-grade bags intended for vacuum sealers but not seal them. For more information, check out our <a href="https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/a-complete-guide-to-sous-vide-packaging-safety-sustainability-and-sourcing" target="_blank">complete guide to sous-vide packaging</a>.<br><br></li><li>However, when you cook vegetables with Joule, we strongly recommend using a vacuum sealer. This is the only way to guarantee the fantastic results that make sous vide vegetables the best you will ever try. Properly cooked, vacuum-sealed veggies will also be fully pasteurized, so you can store them in the fridge for weeks at a time or freeze them without fear of freezer burn. But this doesn’t mean you need to invest in pricey equipment. We <a target="_blank" href="https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/so-you-wanna-buy-a-vacuum-sealer">recommend sealers</a> that range in price and will all work wonderfully. Once you get one, you’ll find its uses extend beyond Joule—sealers are great for keeping snacks and other foods fresh longer. To see how they work, head to the Vegetables section of the Joule app, and get excited to EAT MORE VEGGIES!<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="What kind of bags do you recommend?"><strong>What kind of bags do you recommend?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>There are several food-grade plastic bags we recommend for sous-vide. You can find information, suggestions, and packaging tips in our <a href="https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/a-complete-guide-to-sous-vide-packaging-safety-sustainability-and-sourcing" target="_blank">complete guide to sous-vide packaging</a>.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="Do I have to use plastic to cook sous vide?"><strong>Do I have to use plastic to cook sous-vide?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>In addition to plastic bags, you can also use <a href="http://www.chefsteps.com/activities/creme-brulee" target="_blank">mason jars</a> or reusable silicone bags to cook certain items sous-vide. For tons of information on cooking with bags and jars, check out our <a href="https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/a-complete-guide-to-sous-vide-packaging-safety-sustainability-and-sourcing" target="_blank">complete guide to sous vide packaging</a>.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="Cooking two steaks at different donenesses at one time"><strong>Cooking two steaks with different doneness at one time.</strong></h4>
<ul><li>The simplest way to do this is with two Joules in two different containers, but with a little patience and planning, it can work with one sous vide setup! Here is one option: <br><br><ul><li>Place the medium steak into the bath and set the temperature for that doneness. When the steak has cooked, reduce the temperature to medium-rare and place the second steak in the bath. You can do this right away because it will help lower the bath temperature faster and in the short time you won&#39;t risk overcooking the second steak. When the second steak has reached its cook time you can remove both steaks and finish as desired.<br><br></li></ul>
</li><li>While that will give you great results, it also increases the cooking time a bit. So there are two alternate and faster strategies:<br><br><ul><li>Add both steaks during preheating, and set the temperature to medium-rare. When the steaks have reached this temperature, remove one of the steaks and set it aside. Then increase the cooking temperature to medium and allow about one-third of the original cooking time for the remaining steak to reach this higher temperature. Finish both steaks with a quick sear. Although the medium-rare steak was set aside and cooled slightly, it won&#39;t be cold in the centre, and the quick sear will make the surface crusty and hot.<br><br></li><li>Pre-cook the steaks to the desired doneness, and then reheat them later at the lower medium-rare temperature. This will ensure the doneness is right for all of the steaks, and they&#39;ll be warmed through. You will want to make sure to properly chill and store the steaks in between cooking and reheating.<br><br></li></ul>
</li></ul>
<h4 title="Do I need to cover the pot once I’ve placed Joule in it? What if my lid won’t fit on top with Joule inside?"><strong>Do I need to cover the pot once I’ve placed Joule Sous-Vide in it? What if my lid won’t fit on top with my circulator inside?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>For shorter cooks, you do not need to put a lid on your pot to cook with Joule Sous-Vide. However, covering your cook setup allows your circulator to heat the water more quickly. If you are doing a long cook or cooking at a high temperature, water will evaporate over time, so for best results, we do advise covering the pot around Joule with foil or plastic wrap. Note: do not fully cover Joule Sous-Vide during cooking. Please leave the top of Joule exposed from the bottom of the cord up. Fully covering Joule may cause it to overheat and stop your cook. You may also lose your Bluetooth or WiFi connection if you cover your circulator completely with a lid.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="Can I use Joule to cook sous vide in anything besides water (like beer or chicken broth)?"><strong>Can I use Joule Sous-Vide to cook sous vide in anything besides water (like beer or chicken broth)?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>We do not recommend using Joule Sous-Vide with anything other than water. Your circulator is designed to work only in water. Using Joule Sous-Vide in fluids other than water will void your warranty and likely decrease your circulator&#39;s lifespan or damage it permanently.</li></ul>

<h4 title="How do I turn off Joule (stop cooking) with the top button?"><strong>How do I turn off Joule Sous-Vide (stop cooking) with the top button?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>You can turn off Joule by pressing and holding the top button for one to two seconds. The light will change to the standby white colour to let you know that you have been successful.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="Is Joule waterproof?"><strong>Is Joule waterproof?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>No, but Joule Sous-Vide is water resistant and is completely sealed against short-term, accidental water intrusion. Because of Joule Sous-Vide&#39;s unique design, it will continue to work after an accidental dunk in water.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="What kind of heating element does Joule use?"><strong>What kind of heating element does Joule use?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>Joule Sous-Vide delivers 1100 watts of heating power from a unique, compact heater using thick film technology that operates at 99.8 percent energy efficiency for one of the fastest preheating times on the market.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="How fast will Joule heat water?"><strong>How fast will Joule Sous-Vide heat water?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>
<p>The answer depends on a few factors, so let&#39;s first look at a basic example:</p>
<p>Assuming we&#39;re heating about 6 quarts of water from 60 °F to 140 °F and Joule Sous-Vide operates at almost 99% power efficiency with approximately 1100 watts, you can expect it will take around 15-20 minutes to heat.</p>
<p>Other factors that can affect the overall heating time:</p>
<ul style="list-style-type: disc;"><li>How much water is in the container? More water equals longer heating time.</li><li>What is the container made out of? Different materials will dissipate heat at different rates which can affect the time to heat the water.</li><li>How well insulated is the container? The better insulated, the shorter the heating time as it reduces overall heat dissipation. Using a hot pad on the bottom of the container and/or covering the top of the container can also help reduce heat dissipation.<br><br></li></ul>
</li></ul>
<h4 title="What is Joule made of?"><strong>What is Joule Sous-Vide made of?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>The metal components of Joule are made from surgical-grade stainless steel. All plastic materials are FDA-certified food-safe plastic.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4 title="How do I store Joule?"><strong>How do I store Joule Sous-Vide?</strong></h4>
<ul><li>Due to its small size, Joule Sous-Vide will easily fit in most standard kitchen drawers or cupboards and Joule Sous-Vide’s power cord is designed to wrap around the circulator when not in use.</li><li>When you’re done cooking with your circulator, we recommend using the app to stop it and unplugging the device before storing. We also recommend letting your circulator cool down before handling, as the lower portion of the device will be quite hot after cooking and you may risk burning yourself if you handle Joule Sous-Vide too soon after the cook is completed.</li></ul>

<h4>Is your Joule sous-vide not reporting the water temperatures you’re expecting? If Joule&#39;s circulation chamber has become dirty or scaled, it can affect the detected water temperature. So, before doing any of the calibration testing, please clean your circulator via the following instructions:</h4>
<ul style="list-style-type: disc;"><li>
<h4><a href="/s/article-detail-public?knowArtId=kA05c000000HQ8bCAG&amp;articleLanguage=en_NZ" target="_self">How do I clean my circulator?</a></h4>
</li></ul>
<h4>To help us determine if you have a circulator that might be inaccurate, the following test and test method should be employed.</h4>
<h4>Please calibrate your reference thermometer per manufacturer instructions and record the calibration measurements. Typically, you will perform an ice bath calibration at 32 ºF / 0 ºC and a boiling calibration corrected for atmospheric pressure.</h4>
<h4>You may also use your Joule sous-vide without running the motor in these calibrations. Just put your circulator into the water and record the temperature that is displayed on the Breville+ app cook screen. In all cases, you will need to manually stir the Joule sous-vide like you would with a spoon or spatula to ensure that it reaches an equilibrium point. If you do not, the temperature that your circulator will read may be slightly higher than the true water temperature.</h4>
<h4><strong>How to carefully compare Joule sous-vide temperatures:</strong></h4>
<ol><li>
<h4>Set up the water with approximately 8 litres, or 2.1 gallons, of water. For best results, use a vessel that has well-insulated sides. Covering the sides with a towel will work well. You do not need a lid for this test.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>Place Joule sous-vide on one side of the vessel and aim the water outlet so that it shoots across the centre of the bath.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>Set your cook to a temperature of 104° F / 40° C.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>After the water has reached the set temperature, allow Joule sous-vide to circulate for at least 20 minutes undisturbed.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>Place your reference thermometer at least 2 to 3 inches to one side of the water outlet and record the temperature. The water coming out of the water outlet is being heated, so it will be warmer than the set temperature. You’ll want to be careful not to measure the temperature of this water.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>Compare this recorded temperature to the temperature in the Brevile+ app.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>Repeat steps 3 through 6 for 158° F / 70° C.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>If you have access to multiple reference thermometers, please repeat these tests with each one. (More data is better!)</h4>
</li></ol>
<h4>To note, here are things that can affect the temperature read by a reference thermometer:</h4>
<ul style="list-style-type: disc;"><li>
<h4>The size of the container, how well insulated it is, the temperature of the cook, how long the water has been circulating, and the position of the reference thermometer within the container compared to the position of the circulator. You may want also to try placing your reference thermometer in different positions within the water to gather a range of temps to compare.</h4>

<h2><strong>Joule™ Connected Appliances</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>Firmware Update Troubleshooting.</strong></h3>
<p>Successful firmware update relies on your connected appliance to have a solid, unblocked connection to our cloud servers. If you&#39;re having issues updating your appliance&#39;s firmware, check below for connection troubleshooting:</p>
<p> </p>
<ol><li>Make sure that nothing in the router&#39;s or ISP&#39;s configuration would block access to the cloud. (E.g. VPN / Firewall settings.) Try temporarily disabling your firewall or VPN (sometimes called &#39;Online Protection&#39;) and retry connecting. You may also need to make sure that ports 443, 8443, and 8883 are not blocked by your firewall. For the original Joule sous-vide (not the new Joule Turbo), make sure that ports 80, 443, and 69 are not blocked by your firewall.<br> </li><li>Make sure the appliance is close enough to the router. Low signal strength / interference can affect whether the appliance can connect / stay connected.<br> </li><li>Try connecting your appliance to an alternate access point (e.g. mobile or personal hotspot.)</li></ol>
<ul style="margin-left: 40px;"><li>If using a hotspot, make sure your hotspot is setup to broadcast a 2.4GHz access point.</li><li>On an iOS device, in Settings select &quot;Personal Hotspot&quot; and slide the &quot;Maximize Compatibility&quot; option to the ON position (if shown.)</li><li>For Android devices, check your phone&#39;s individual hotspot settings and make sure it setup for 2.4GHz. For Android 12+ devices, make sure to enable the &quot;Extend Compatibility&quot; or &quot;Maximize Compatibility&quot; option.<br> </li></ul>

If you&#39;re having issues receiving these notifications, check the following troubleshooting tips below.<br><br></h4>
<h4><strong>Note: </strong>If you migrate your <strong>original Joule sous-vide</strong> circulator to the <strong>Breville+ app</strong>, push notifications will no longer work for your circulator using the old <strong>Joule app</strong>. You will still get in-app notifications, but you will no longer receive cloud based push notifications.<br><br></h4>
<h4><strong>Refresh your connection / new connection. </strong>It can often help to redo the connection to your appliance:</h4>
<ul><li>In the Breville+ app, go to Settings &gt; Select the appliance under &quot;My appliances&quot; &gt; &quot;Delete from account&quot; &gt; &quot;Delete [appliance name]&quot;.</li><li>Uninstall / reinstall the Breville+ app.</li><li>Launch the Breville+ app, sign back into your account and re-connect the appliance.</li><li>Make sure to accept Notification permissions asked for by the Breville+ app.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4><strong>General items to check:</strong></h4>
<ul><li>Verify that your Internet is up / online. Restart your router / modem.</li><li>Verify that internet access is enabled on your phone / tablet. Restart your phone / tablet.</li><li>Verify mobile data / Wi-Fi are turned on and are not being disabled when the phone / tablet is going to sleep or the app is backgrounded.</li><li>Disable any low battery / low power / battery saver modes on your phone / tablet.</li><li>Verify that Do Not Disturb is not enabled on your phone / tablet. </li><li>Check your phone / tablet&#39;s Sleep Mode, Doze Mode, Lock Screen settings to see if notifications are disabled for these modes.</li><li>If notifications are showing up very late, it&#39;s possible there may be issues with Internet lag / connection to the cloud servers. Try restarting your home network and contact your ISP if these issues continue.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4><strong>iOS info:</strong></h4>
<ul><li>
<p>On the iPhone / iPad, go into Settings &gt; Notifications &gt; Breville+. Verify notifications and associated settings are enabled as expected. Enable &quot;Time Sensitive Notifications&quot;.</p>
</li><li>Enable Background Refresh for the Breville+ app.</li><li>In Settings &gt; Sounds there is a slider for the Ringers and Alerts volume. Make sure this slider volume is turned up if you’re not receiving a sound with your notification.</li><li>Some older iOS devices have a switch on the side for Ring / Silent. Make sure this switch isn&#39;t set to Silent if you’re not receiving a sound with your notification.<br><br></li></ul>
<h4><strong>Android info:</strong></h4>
<ul><li>Verify that Google Play Services is enabled on your phone / tablet.</li><li>Verify that background sync is not disabled for the Breville+ app.</li><li>Verify under Notification settings for the Breville+ app that they are enabled and &quot;Hide content&quot; or &quot;Hide notification details on Lock screen&quot; is disabled.</li><li>Make sure the volume level for Notifications is not muted / up high enough in case there&#39;s no sound accompanying the notification.<br><br></li></ul>

Joule™ Connected Appliances | Home Network / ISP / hardware troubleshooting

<h2><strong>Joule</strong>™<strong> Connected Appliances</strong></h2>
<h3><strong>I can&#39;t pair with my appliance</strong></h3>
<h3><br><strong>Things to check:</strong></h3>
<ol><li>
<h4>Unplug your appliance and wait a few seconds before plugging back in. Fully close and restart the app. Restart your phone / tablet.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>Make sure that Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>Make sure your phone is close to the appliance when pairing.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>Disable low battery / low power / battery saver mode on your smart phone / tablet. Having these enabled can affect connection reliability.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4><b><span style="text-decoration: underline;">iOS</span>:</b> If you are still having trouble, make sure the Breville+ app has permission to use Bluetooth by navigating to your phone settings and selecting the Breville+ app.</h4>
</li><li>
<h4><b><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Android</span>:</b></h4>
<ul><li>
<h4><b></b>If you are still having trouble, try enabling Location / GPS on your phone, restart the Breville+ app and attempt to pair again. On Android, Bluetooth is part of location services. Location may need to be enabled to allow a BLE device to pair and use (especially on older versions of Android.)</h4>
</li><li>
<h4>If you&#39;ve changed anything in the Android phone&#39;s Developer Options, especially having to do with Bluetooth, return those settings back to default and restart your phone.</h4>
</li></ul>
</li><li>
<h4><b><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Dark Mode</span>:</b> If you are not seeing your appliance appearing in the pairing / connection list, it may actually be there but is not showing because of dark mode. Try temporarily disabling dark mode on your device, restart the Breville+ app and try again.</h4>
</li><li>
