I have seen different videos of sage barista express coffee ☕️ machine settings for perfect taste.
In the last three years, I didn't know about pressure settings.
In the last few days, I dived into depth and learned a lot of knowledge about how to make tasty coffee.
Barista Express is one of the best coffee machines for home.
🙏 Pray for everyone who has endured this tedious but necessary process 🙏
Literally. I’ve been able to properly dial in my BBE one time…I’ve had it 5 years…send help.
All hail us the Caffè consumers!
Only to get it dialed in perfectly, finish the bag you had it optimized for, and have to readjust for the next bag.
Just started the journey! Am going to ask my doctor for Valium!
I watched many videos but I have to tell you just like you said that the coffee was hitting the sweet spot. Your video hit the sweet spot I get this machine now I'm not afraid of it anymore and I just made the best coffee ever thank you so much
Awesome! Thank you!
Yo lo estoy tratando aún, hasta perro ha tomado café. 😂
That’s very illustrative, the way you’ve found the perfect balance of the extraction! Thank you
Thank you for the video. I am so new to making espresso and just got the Breville Barista Express. I am feeling more confident. ☕️
Good to hear that. Enjoy your machine
I bet a lot of people with ocd went nuts when he almost forgot to do the weight of the last shot 😂. Great video, well edited too!
Lol... i see that video again now and I laughed... good observation! Thanks
@Aju's Cafe I had a few questions for you. If you can’t get any pressure at all using the unpressurized single wall cups is the grind not fine enough you think? Also, do your pucks come out soupy? Is that just the way this machine is?
@@gedionsamuel2256Good questions.. Regarding low pressure, yes you need make grind size more finer. Also increase the dose a bit, if its still low on pressure. I made a 3 series of video on low pressure in my channel. Have a look at all those 3 and I'm sure you will fix that issue permanently th-cam.com/video/ifI4AajrDOQ/w-d-xo.html
@@gedionsamuel2256 Regarding soggy puck, i don't normally get. One tip is to ensure you tamp it right at Razor tool height. If you tamp it too low (lower than Razor height 7.5mm), you will get soggy puck. Also, try to leave your puck in Portafilter for 2bor 3 minutes after Extraction. Breville barista Express has a feature where it sucks up water from the puck to make it dry.
Aju's Cafe 🙏 Thank you for the quick response. I’ll go check it out right now.
Great video. Please do the same video for a bottomless portafilter no with Lavazza super Crema!
Your video help me a lots. Thank you. From Malaysia with love
So glad to hear that 🙂
For the best taste and extraction always use medium roast beans. Dark roast always result in bitter taste even when properly extracted. That is the reason you were getting better taste when you under extracted with lower pressure and fast flow.
I've noticed this myself too, the best espresso I've ever tasted from my machine were from medium roast beans
@@Goetterdaemmerung86 I noticed this as well. Medium roast was way better than the dark roast I bought.
This drove me crazy hence nobody talked about it on youtube ,dude I finished huge bag of Costco kirkland dark espresso beans and everytime I get bitter taste no matter what I do
Thank you helped with figuring out the process. What a difference
A couple more thoughts Aju: when dialling in the dose, I found it easier to release the coffee into an espresso cup which I'd previously tared, then remove any excess coffee before adding to the portafilter; I also tried consecutive dosing (weighing and taring each cup before dosing). The automatic grind amount was remarkably consistent so I'm less bothered about single dosing.. I guess the next step is to add a separate grinder to the mix and see how much better the coffee tastes. Everyone is raving about the NICHE grinder..but of course it costs as much as the Barista Express in the first place so its not a small investment! Once again thanks for the videos- I'm learning loads! BW Graham
Awesome video, very organized and helpful for a beginner. Thanks for the time doing this. Enjoy your coffee!
Thank you for your feedback. Appreciate that 👍
Thank you so much for this video. I just got this machine and have wasted a bag of beans. This step by step has been very informative.
Welcome
Bravo excellent simple and not complicated. I will probably stick to one coffee bean. This is a lot of dialing to find the sweet spot. Thank youuuu. Enjoy your coffee
i never imagined that Breville can do extremely well, glad i had one
Think you so much for this in depth demonstration. I enjoyed it.
You are welcome 🙂
Hi thanks for this video. I think the problem is the grinder on this machine. We cannot make micrometric adjustment . This explains the big time difference between two very close settings.
These Grinders are not accurate. But usuable.
Yes you can, in the main burr itself it has micro adjustments, the putter adjustment wheel isn’t micro
This is a good learning! Thanks for showing the various settings. The tests has made me realised that I need to do it as well! Now I see why my brew hasn't been tasting consistent. Thank you!
Good to hear that. Its recommended to dial in every time you buy new beans.
Hey Buddy Thanks for your video I really enjoyed it and was really helpful.
So glad to hear that 🙂
Great video. It's easy to follow and duplicate these steps. My built-in grinder can't grind fine enough to get the desired pressure and extraction rate. I've ordered a better grinder and also had a local coffee shop grind 500g for me. More testing follows.
You can change the inner burr grind setting on the Express, in addition to the outter setting. It has the ability to grind to powder
Great job
Thanks
thanks for your efforts I really appreciate
You are welcome
Aju, loved this video, perfectly timed and ideal to follow the process 🤓 Thank you for taking the trouble 🙏
It's my pleasure and I'm glad this helped. Thanks for the feedback.
Love your videos bro. I learn a lot because of you
So glad to hear that
@@AjusCafe except i noticed that i can not adjust my bur. I have a solis grind and infuse 115.. Keep up this great work dude. Makes my day.
Thanks
very impressive step by step scientific settings for best espresso :) Thanks for your effort for the best data!
Thank you Henry
Great video! I learned something
Thanks
Great video demonstrating dialing in!
This was super helpful THANK YOU!
You are welcome
2nd shot 10 second pre-infusion + 12-13 second drop time = 22-23 second.
The best way to get accurate pre-infusion is use a bottomless portafilter and watch as the bottom of basket begins to saturate. That is your pre-infusion. For those who say timing from pump turn on get pump start up time I say if it takes longer than a second for your pump to begin pre-infusion there's something wrong with your pump or something wrong with brew head your brew head.
Thank you for the video it was simple and informative
Thank you
Great video! Thank you!
Welcome
Thank you brother !
You are welcome
start stoper from preinfusion when you touch the button and count 30s
If you're only timing from 1st drop what time are you trying to get? You should be aiming for between 17 to 20 seconds from 1st drop. Maybe a little more depending on the bean.
This video was so helpful to me! I have a brand new machine. One thing - when you measure 18 grams that is including the glass. So it's not really 18 grams of coffee, right?
This was exactly what I needed. Thanks!
Thank you Jose
Very helpful thank you!
I literally wasted a whole bag of beans because I misunderstood the dial, so every time I tried to adjust I was going the wrong way...this was the only video I had watched that took a moment to clarify the grind numbers on the dial...😅
Oh my goodness. Glad you are are to get the extraction right.
Excellent video. Good information. Thank you!
Thank you
I’m in the 15-16 grind setting and I’m getting to much liquid like double, I have to use a cup because it does not fit on the shot. I’m in the 35-40 seconds range. What should I adjust?
35-40 Seconds is ok for double shot. If you are getting too much liquid, just grind it finer. Set it from 15 to 6 or 5 and see.
To reset water volume to factory default, watch this

What is inner burr grind set to
Great video, keep up the good work
Just started using this machine.
Put some new fresh beans in started at grind size 8, the coffee is pouring but the machine indicates no pressure at all. Then went down to grind size 3 and it's still in the pre-infusion mark, what am I doing wrong, what to do now?
Thanks in advance
You can do this temporary fix
th-cam.com/video/ifI4AajrDOQ/w-d-xo.html
But when you say fresh, when is the roasted date?
Hi Aju: I've watched several of your videos now (I live in London, UK by the way, and recently bought a Breville Barista same as yours!). I must say your videos are really helpful, specific and clear. I single dose 18g each time (rather than rely on the automatic dosing of the machine) but it would be interesting to see how effective and consistent automatic dosing actually is in a future video? One question: Dosing ratio. Its officially supposed to be around 1:2 but your was quite a lot higher. Any thoughts on that and any plans to make video about dosing ratios and dialling in? Thanks !! Graham
So many videos on dialing in with the external grinder but what about the internal?
You don't really need to adjust the inner burr settings, unless you have issue with low pressure or sour espresso. I've explained in my other video th-cam.com/video/ifI4AajrDOQ/w-d-xo.html
Always buy freshly Roasted beans.
i learnt a lot . THANK you
Glad to hear that.
Thank you! Very helpful!
Thanks for the feedback
Thanks for sharing I just got my Breville 870 need to work on my coffee making 👍🏻☕️! Which filter did you use?
Congratulations. You are going to enjoy your machine! I always use Non-Pressurized basket because it give you more control. Pressurized basket is for store bought coffee Grinds or for beginners. See my video on basket difference. th-cam.com/video/U7uDE-E-Z3I/w-d-xo.html
@@AjusCafe thanks enjoy watching your video learning a lot I’m using the dual wall basket since I’m a beginner but will try other one here soon 😁
@@rueda82nd oh i see. When you switch on Non-Pressurized basket you will need to dial in properly to see the pressure gauge in guided range. And it'll taste better too. Pressurized basket always shows pressure and it is not really hitting the sweet spot of the beans. Buy freshly Roasted beans and try.
This video was one of the most helpful that I’ve found. Thank you!
Hey do you use default setting on double coup extraction or you did some improvemnt? 😊
Is there a big difference between measuring the weight of the unground beans vs keeping them in the hopper and keeping the grind time the same every time?
By measuring weight you can be more consistent
Thanks for the answer 👍@@AjusCafe
I want to make double shots, but I was wondering if dialing in with single shots would be a way to save wasted coffee?
Would that carry over or would it be inaccurate?
You can adjust your burr so you can achieve finer options and your fine option will move from 4 to 6. Just readjust your grinder burr.
Great Video ☕️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
For Lavazza as my go coffee I use setting 4 and Burr setting factory on 6 and this usually give good results needle not passing over 12 and right pressure.
Now the video you haven’t made yet is how do you store coffee?? When you open package or roast.
My trick I buy vacuum sealed container and keep it in freezer and this works actually to preserve freshness..
Alan H
I was thinking of coffee storage a lot last night for a change... and you talked about it today... lol. Storing in freezer has mixed opinions. I'd store in a dry place, in a kitchen cabinet. Vaccum seal is great.
Regarding the pressure gauge, i feel 1 O'clock mark extracts better taste for me. Try it and see if you prefer that taste.
@@AjusCafe actually I learned this recently now it’s your opinion how you’ll like to store but for me it works actually 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼☕️
Try it see what you think..
Alan H
@@AjusCafe so for now I’m using single pressurized basket factory bur setting 6 and grid on side is 4 I get around 12 o clock extraction and a bit of crema...
Any recommendations you think would be better for more crema or it’s
Good as it is??
Alan H
@@alanh8101 if freezing works for you then stick on to that. Good to know that. Not sure if freshly Roasted beans act the same way.
Do we have to roast the beans we get from the stores like Wholefoods that are sold by weight and not in the sealed containers?
Should you start the time when you start the machine?
No. At the first drop is ok
@AjusCafe thanks!!
Love your videos, you're great at explaining things and share very valuable knowledge. What I can't understand is how you are achieving correct (in the zone) pressure regardless of whether you are at grind size 6 or move all the way down to 2.
If I am at the 12 o'clock range and move 1 or 2 grind sizes finer I will definitely be over extracted out of the range. Changing grind sizes seems a lot more sensetive for me. I am using super market medium roast beans and have internal burr on setting 3. Thoughts?
David, thank you. Good question though. Answer is simple why I get good extraction and in pressure range is because I use freshly roasted beans. Freshly roasted is much different than store bought beans where we don't know the roasted date. For espresso always buy from a local roaster as they give you the roasted date. Now in 1:37 of this video I mentioned that I roasted this beans 2 days ago. So lot of coffee oils and gas in that beans, so you see good extraction like honey. I have few videos in my channel on how to roast beans at home.
@@AjusCafe Hi Anju, I think I've just spent most of my evening watching all your videos! ☺️ Thank you for the response, I had a feeling the fresh beans made the difference in this case and I will endevour to buy some. Thanks again and keep up the great content ☕
@@davidagius4753 thank you and appreciate your feedback.
Thanks bro
What about the internal grinder setting? I have my internal set to 3 and external set to 8.
Great video, thanks. One question - My 'Grind Amount' dial is always at 12, if I go any further I get LOTS of coffee and yet I see yours is at around 4pm. Any time I adjust the grind setting wheel as well it gives me more or less depending on which way I turn it, so I can nevert get a consistent amount unless I leave it one setting. Any ideas?
I leave it to Maximum because i don't use that dial. Instead i weigh my beans to 18g and use it one time. So i always get 18g out. That dial is not reliable and every time you change beans, it can dispense more or less depending on the beans quality.
@@AjusCafe Thanks, that's what I've found. I've started weighing to 18g too.
Stir before tasting , it makes a difference.
I do. Sometimes i don't 🙂
What was the inner burr size as well?
I believe you are supposed to start the timer at the press of the button. So with your machine it’s starting to pour out the machine at the 10th second. So your last shot ended at 20 seconds but in reality you hit the perfect 30 second mark. (Just my thoughts..?)
Hi Jason, you could consider preinfusion also in the timer. Some include and some don't. Both are ok for me. If i include then its 30sec Extraction.
My Breville set the grind to 16. Is it the right setting?
Do you leave the beans container (hopper?) empty and you always measure the weight of the beans each time you make a coffee? or you are doing this just for the video? 🙂thanks for all the videos by the way
I never leave it in the hopper. Thank you
@@AjusCafe thank you so much! i now add them to the hopper only when i need it ..
I notice u have not changed your amount of grind and just adjusted the coarseness. Reason? Is there a reason for using the numbers u use on amount of ground coffee weight? What numbers are we looking for in the weight of coffee after the shot is brewed vs amount ground? What number are we looking for ? Ratio of beginning coffee to weight of coffee after brewing? Thank you.
We have good pressure but quite a bit of foamy bubbles…any thoughts??
Are you using Pressurized basket? Use Non-pressurized and freshly Roasted beans to get micro foamy crema
Amazing, informative videos!! My Breville Barista Express doesn’t stop automatically after brewing the shot (single or double), so I have to manually guess and stop it. Is there any way to fix this issue? Thanks in advance!
Thank you. I made a video on water flow issue. So try this th-cam.com/video/jtczkX4DPS8/w-d-xo.html
@@AjusCafe Wow, thank you so much for replying and sharing a link to your video! Amazing solution! I will try for sure. You really are a savior! Your videos are very informative and talk about specific issues. Brilliant work!
@@adwaitutube Thank you and glad to hear that 🙂
I have the first generation of the Breville espresso machine, how do I know what size is it in metric 53mm/54mm. I want to purchase the air pump for my hopper and the rest of the items. Can you let me know what it is if you happen to know.
53 or 54 can be bought. Max size is 54mm . These accessories are standard size. Most of the link is in the description below. If you meant bellow for breville, then you need to buy one for breville barista Express.
what type the filter are you used it in this video double or single , because I see in the filter size is single, so you grinder is single? or you are using manual grinder? and also I want a solution for why my shot almost all the time the portafilter is so soak after make it an extraction ..thank you
I use single wall double filter only. I use filter size on the machine to single, before I bought the dosing cup. this is to avoid spilling of grinds. So I do 2 single dose to make it double. And tap half way to settle the beans well before dosing the 2nd half. Hope that clarifies.
You mentioned a tamper and scales but I couldn't find the links? Thanks..
What is your internal burr setting now?
Default factory setting at 6
It will depend. I had to faff about with my settings to get the pressure in the grey area.
My settings ended up being 1 on the side (finest) and 1 on the internal burr setting.
That was measured out with 18g of coffee beans in the hopper
I find that its best to just measure 18g of coffee at a time, as the dial on the front that puts the coffee amount in is unreliable.
whats the setting inside the machine?
I have a question. In commercial so does that mean they always use one or two kinds of beans?
Usually yes it would be same beans to keep the taste same
I see you have double filter but yu hit single filter button?..why?
what number was the inside grinder?
you have to turn the grind dial all the way to MORE to get the full 18g out of the machine.. guess you can press it one more time to get it all out but judging by the amount it did not look like 18
Is it normal for the single and double shot to have different dial ins for the grind size? I found that if I use the grind setting that works for the double shot for the single shot, the single shot starts to choke and I have to make the grind setting 2 steps coarser for it to work for the single shot. For example, I use a grind setting of 8 for my double shot, but the single shot chokes unless I use a grind setting of 10. If I use the setting of 10 for my double shot, it reaches the middle of the espresso zone on the pressure gauge but the flow is a little too fast. This is for the breville barista express by the way. Both of the filter cups are also single wall (unpressurized). Also I am using Lavazza espresso perfetto whole bean blend.
After you've dialed in the grind size, i would suggest you to change only dose when you swap single or double basket. If the Pressure is too low on single, then dose 1g more and see. That's what i do. Single basket is not exactly half of double dose. Usually single ratio is slightly more. So dose 1g more and tamp well and see.
You have the filter set to single and pouring double
Thats To avoid overspill of grinds
My Breville BE 870 came with a levelling tool. Unfortunately the grinder stopped working, not the grinder itself but its activating switch became unpredictable, sometimes it worked, sometimes it did not want to start. I bought Breville smart burr grinder which I love. It has the same type of activation, but this is doubled by Start/Pause button. Somewhere in the middle I pause the grinding, press down the coffee, and in the end I use the provided tools to press it down. This smart grinder has digital timer and grind settings. Interestingly, I use grind size 6 for my own roasted beens . For those beans, size 4 is just slow and over extracted. I love Lavazza but I generally use Gran Crema or something similar. How did Lavazza Rossa work compared to your own roasted beans? And my last question: how do you roast raw coffee beans? I only tried the stove roasting in a cast iron pan. What I don't like is blowing away the fluffy bran.
Lavazza Rosa is decent tasting espresso. I prefer Roasting my own. But to compare there are many types of beans that i roast. This Lavazza is better tasting than some of the flavors i roasted. But i still prefer the freshness of roasting my own. I always use cast iron deep Skillet to roast my beans. Here is a video on how I roast th-cam.com/video/gGnhba65nkQ/w-d-xo.html
To blow away the chaff you should step outside home and do. The wind or breeze will clean up naturally 👍
I've tried everything still can't get a good double or single shot! so now I use the dual wall basket.🙂
The beans are not freshly Roasted. That's why
Hi i see you were on the single filter setting for a double shot, I just bought a sage BE but i had the double NP filter for a double shot. Am i wrong in doing that. Ive still not made a decent shot yet. Thanks
I used to dose 2 single dose, to avoid spill. In between I tap Portafilter to settle the Grinds before dosing 2nd half. This was before i bought a dosing cup.
What is the Roasted date of the beans that you use? If you don't use freshly Roasted, you won't get a decent Extraction.
Don't you want a 1:2 ratio? 18g / 36g
Hi, Aju. problem i have , make a coffee 18grams takes about 26 seconds, make same shot 2min. later 18grams takes about 39seconds !! any ideas ? cheers Michael.
First thing please check if your filter baskets are clogged.
Secondly run few double shot empty shots, just hot water and measure the water volume to see if you are getting it constant.
Thirdly measure 18g of grinds (not beans). i.e. make sure you take 18g of ground coffee into the basket. Because Grinder can dose more OR less than 18g beans.
if the above items are good, then it could be something to do with your beans and grinder. As you know Breville grinder is not consistent in grinding. i.e. some coarser, some very fine. Test it out and let me know.
What setting are your conical but a at?
Its at 4
Hi Aju, I love your video, you show very clear and step by step #1
Appreciate your feedback and kind words
Imho, the grinding size = 2 was perfect. 29 seconds and you are in the sweet zone ;-)
Mainly depends on the taste 🙂
Makes sense that different beans have different grind settings based on what the individual likes.
All trial and error really, have a fiddle with the machine and find what works best for you.
Yes that's correct. It has lot of manual controls, so have fun dialing in
Are you using the dual wall basket?
No. Single wall basket double cup size.
What basket did you use? Non pressurized?
Yes Non-Pressurized basket usually
What do you have the inside grinder set at?
I don't remember, but it's at 4 i think
Great video! Very informative! Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks.
Did you use the beans from that bag you purchased or the one you freshly roasted by yourself?
If it’s the one you purchase, what’s the roasted by date?
Usually the best taste period for freshly roasted beans are 6th-14th day.
Did you use the non pressurise or pressurise filter in this video?
Appreciate if you can tell me.
I used freshly Roasted beans which I roasted few days ago.
Non-Pressurized basket was used in the video.
is that what you call calibration?
its called Dialing In Espresso shot
Hi great video. Are you using the default settings for the automatic double shot ? Or have you altered the program?
I use pre-programmed settings usually.
Your 4th shot was right on the mark. But again is it repeatable?
Yes you should be able to get the same for 1 or 2 weeks (after opening beans). Afterward you might need some adjustment.
@@AjusCafe oh, I know you should but can you with the BE grinder?
Not accurate for what we pay for.
What is that tamper called? I’d like to buy one
2 in 1 Tamper Leveler from aliexpress.com th-cam.com/video/ACKVR1nXFcA/w-d-xo.html
Merci infiniment pour l’intérêt que vous m’avez réservé,devant la complexité de cette machine,je l’ai rendu au vendeur,ce n’est pas une machine à café expresso,mais c’est un vrai laboratoire.merci monsieur.
aucun problème. j'espère que vous en trouverez un autre qui vous conviendra. Merci
Surely when you way the beans there was still be a few grams left over in the hopper.
What’s your burr setting inside?? Setting 5 for me inside and grind 4 and get needle at 12 I think it’s good ☕️👍🏼
Alan H
Mine was set a default 6. Good to hear you got a nice shot
@@AjusCafe
Hi Aju
Thanks for reply and did subscribe to you👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Now I’m using single pressure cup I’m on grind burr setting 5 and dial on side #2 and little knob grind amount #3
Any advice for more crema to squeeze out lol let me know
What should I do go back to default 6 like you?
I’m using always Lavazza crema gusto and Lavazza crema e aroma
Alan H
@@alanh8101 thank you for Subscribing. I appreciate that. To get lot of crema with a coarser beans, its simple! . Buy freshly Roasted beans from a local roaster OR roast your own! It must be less than 2 weeks old dial in and let me know if you get lot of crema. I have few videos on Roasting your own beans.
@@AjusCafe
Thank you well do 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼☕️
Alan/Aju - how do you know what setting to adjust the internal burr set to? I’m struggling to dial my machine in. It’s way too quick on the flow but I can’t seem to grind fine enough unless it’s choking the machine and cuts out. Any advice?
What size basket are you using?
Double size Non-Pressurized basket
I had to remove the grinder part and adjust it down to get pressure on the shots.
