- Uncut workflow for new bag of Worcas's Light Roast Single Origin Bali Kintamani (roast date not listed, but supposedly freshly roasted). Using 9,5 grams beans with non-pressurized single shot basket (Breville's original).
00::01 Start machine.
00:30 Checking packaging and opening new bag.
01:24 Visual inspection of beans (not as light colored as I thought it would be). Not as fragrant as medium or dark roasted beans.
01:34 Weighing 9,5 grams.
02:45 Purging old grounds from grinder.
03:20 Grinding 9,5 grams of beans (typical Baratza Sette, very loud) using old settings used for medium roasted beans (Using the 2 shims provided, started at 11F).
03:45 Start of puck preparation
03:50 Distributing the grounds on the top portion of the portafilter (can do this because Sette's grind is not clumping).
04:30 Lightly tamped using Breville original tamper.
04:48 Added puck screen (1.7mm thickness, purchased from Aliexpress)
05:29 Extracted the first try (holding the shot button to maintain lower flow rate/lower pressure). Got ~30 grams in 23 seconds. Aimed for 19 grams in 30 seconds. Tasted bit too watery, not acidic, slightly sweet.
09:40 Grinding 2nd try (changed to 10F).
11:41 Extracted 2nd try. Got 23 grams in 23 seconds. Tasted slightly acidic.
15:11 Changed grind setting to 10B.
17:56 Extracted 3rd try (last). Got 20 grams in 25 seconds. Tasted fruity, slightly sweet, balanced.
HI, sir. Just got my infuser. However, when i'm using non-pressurized basket, the gauge didn't increase at all , not even move a little. But it increased if i change to pressurized basket. How can i solve this problem?
Hi, there're lots of things to consider when the only information given is only that much. First off, I would suggest to join the facebook group for Breville, you can read on most of your problem's solution in there (this question always get asked, sometimes multiple times per day).
Anyways, in short, in relation to pressure, at the bare minimum, I will need to know these things:
Are you using freshly roasted coffee (bag should have clear marking of when it was roasted, and NOT the expiration date)? Typically, will want the coffee to be dated within 1-5 weeks since roasted. Best to buy freshly roasted coffee beans and store it for 1 week before using.
Do they come in bag of beans or pre-ground coffee? If you use pre-ground coffee, then the ground would have totally de-gassed that there wouldn't be any pressure build up. You have only minutes after grinding, any longer then, you can only use the pressurized basket.
What type of grinder do you use? If you haven't already, I'd recommend to get electric step-less burr grinder (example: DF64, Sette 270, Baratza Encore ESP, etc).
Do you use scale to weigh your before/after grinding? Make sure you're consistently use the same dose every single time. Never use Breville's RAZOR tool (misleading).

Thank you so much sir.
Now i understand why i cant any pressure build up, cause i used pre-ground coffee. (I though it will be great for practice, since i'm a beginner and pre-ground coffee costs cheaper? lol)
I still waiting my electric grinder. I think it will come 18 in Oct.
Now the type of grinder i'm using is Timemore Chestnut C2 Manual Coffee Grinder. What i have done is, i put the pre-ground coffee to it, and grinded into smaller size. ( I know is bad idea lol)
Cause i saw the water flow speed to fast. I got like 45grams coffee in 20 seconds with 9.5grams pre-ground coffee.
The weight before grinding was 10.5 grams, and after is 9.5 grams.
For the tools, i'm still using Breville integrated tamper, but it always remains some coffee around the circle of basket after i tamp down. ( I saw your video and it didnt happened in your non-pressurized basket)
The distribution tool just using toothpick lol. Also the Breville integrated coffee handle is so hard to change to other basket, and it hurt too.
Starting out with pre-ground coffee is fine. Just don't use that to learn about the machine because nothing from that transfers to when you 're actually using freshly roasted beans that you grind only as much as you need.
On, the point of manual hand grinder, please be aware that it'll take time to get used to dialing in (even with an electric burr grinder and 2+ years of experience, it still takes me 4-5 tries before I can finally say that the beans have been dialed in to the taste that I want). It's like I need coffee just to brew my coffee. :)
Anyways, please be patient with your process. It helps to keep track of what you did and how you did it (that's why I have this youtube channel, to record and keep track of how I previously did and what the resulting brew looked like).
P.S: I also ended up with only using Breville's tamper (good enough). Of the additional purchase, I can only recommend are portafilter's collar (the ones where it doesn't hinder you from tamping directly with the collar on) and WDT needle (either acupuncture needles or 0.4 mm fishing wire, cheap and will do a better job than a toothpick).

Thank you so much sir.
I also want to ask, what is the size of distributor/leveller should i get? 53mm?54mm?
Because I saw your video said previously using 53 mm dual sided distributor/leveller in 2021, but my Brevilles' basket box said that it is 54mm Filter Baskets.
And the size of the coffee handle, what should i get?
Thanks.
@@jchow2410 For distributor, get the ones as close to 54 mm as possible. I've seen 53.3 mm. I got mine off Aliexpress and they only sell 53 mm and 53.3 mm from Amazon can be 3-10x as expensive. In my experience, if your grind and WDT is good enough, a simple distribution without the need to tamp is enough to offer the resistance needed (and much more consistent compared to doing/adding manual tamping). But I'm currently experimenting with puck screen + manual tamping.
About the coffee handle, I'm not sure about what you meant. I'm guessing it's the portafilter? If it is, then it'll be advertised as 54 mm portafilter.
