OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT

Step 4:

Trimming the Dose

The adjustable Razor™ Dose Trimming Tool

allows you to trim the puck to the right level

for a consistent extraction.

Select the correct width blade of the Razor™ to

match the diameter of your ﬁlter basket. The

Razor™ has three blades of varying widths:

58mm, 54mm and 50mm. The 58mm and

54mm are already ﬁtted within the Razor™

body. The 50mm is separate.

If you require the 50mm blade, turn the

adjustment dial past #1 until the 54mm blade

is fully extended and able to be pulled from

the body.

If you require the 50mm blade, turn the

Adjustable Dial past #1 until the 54mm blade is

fully extended and able to be pulled from

the body.

NOTE

The Adjustable Dial may feel tight as

you continue to wind it towards the end

of its travel.

Insert the 50mm blade into the body. Wind

the Adjustable Dial until the blade is retracted

past #4. Press the 50mm and 58mm blades at

the same time, towards the center of the body

until a “click” sound can be heard.

Adjust the Razor™ to the setting in the table

below for your Breville espresso machine. This

is a starting point for your dose height.

After tamping the coffee, insert the Razor™

into the ﬁlter basket until it rests on the rim of

the basket. The blade of the dosing tool should

penetrate the surface of the tamped coffee.

If the blade does not penetrate the surface

of the tamped coffee, your coffee is under

dosed. Increase the amount of dosed coffee by

adjusting the GRIND TIME dial.

Rotate the Razor™ back and forth while holding

the portaﬁlter on an angle over the knock box

to trim off a little excess coffee.

Refer to the Coffee Chart on page 14 for

approximate grind size guide.

You will need to extract a shot of espresso

to determine if a change in grind size

and/or grind amount is necessary to achieve

the correct rate of ﬂow. Traditionally, a

single shot of espresso is deﬁned as ~ 1oz

in 30 seconds and a double shot of espresso

as ~ 2oz in 30 seconds.

NOTE

If the Grind Size Collar is tight,

run the grinder by pressing the

START|CANCEL button while turning

the Hopper. This will release coffee

grounds caught between the burrs.

GRINDING INTO A GRINDS

CONTAINER OR COFFEE FILTER

Step 1:

Remove cradle by sliding out from under the

grind outlet.

PULL

Place your container or coffee ﬁlter directly

under grind outlet.

OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PRODUCT

Your ﬁlter basket is now dosed with the correct

amount of coffee for your Breville espresso

machine.

If using the Razor™ with a non Breville

espresso machine, you will need to adjust the

depth of the trimmed coffee by trial and error

until you achieve approximately a 1mm gap

between the group head dispersion screen and

the surface of the trimmed coffee. Start with a

dose that is too high, i.e. the dispersion screen

leaves an imprint on the surface of the trimmed

coffee when inserted and removed from the

group head WITHOUT extracting. Adjust

the height of the dose in small steps until you

achieve this clearance. You will then have the

correct dose height for your espresso machine.

Adjust grind size only until you get the right

rate of espresso ﬂow, while keeping the Razor™

dose height and tamp pressure consistent.

Step 5:

Select Your Grind Size

For espresso, we recommend starting with

grind size setting 15 and rotating the Hopper

(to adjust the Grind Size Collar) either

coarser or ﬁner until your preferred ﬂavor

proﬁle is achieved. This should be done in

conjunction with setting the grind amount

(dose).
