Breville Barista Touch: espresso grind setting
Start at grind level 14 for a medium roast. Finer is a lower number (side dial, not the screen).
Where to start
- Light roast: grind level 12. Medium: grind level 14. Dark: grind level 16.
- The dial: 1 to 30 (grind level).
- One small step: 1 grind level.
- Grind is set with the side dial only; the touchscreen just shows it.
The light and dark starting points are two small steps either side of the medium one: our rule of thumb, not the maker's.
