Customising Your Machine

Sometimes you want a fresh start. Should you ever wish to override all the customisations you've made to your machine so you can start over, it's easy to reset the Barista Touch™ back to its factory defaults. When you reset to factory defaults, all settings changes you have made will be deleted, including all custom drinks.

How to perform a factory reset

Your Barista Touch™ will indicate when a descale cycle is needed. This is when the build up of minials in the machine can effect the taste of your coffee. Your Barista Touch™ will guide you through the cycle, but the process for the Barista series works the same, so you can also follow along to see how it's done.

The Barista Touch™ gives you the power to create luxurious, third wave speciality coffee in your own home. However, making perfectly extracted espresso or ideally textured milk is not enough. You want to be able to customise your coffee to your specific taste, just like your favourite barista does. We will guide you through how to make these changes.

How to change settings

Did you know that different types of coffee beans require different temperatures to best extract their full flavours? Professional baristas know this, and so does your Barista Touch™. You can adjust the temperature of your brewing with just a few taps of your finger.

How to adjust the brew temperature

Various milk types and milk alternatives will require a different temperature to be perfectly textured. You can adjust and personalise your taste and preferences with the Barista Touch™.

Cleaning Guides

Perfectly filtered water is essential for enjoying smooth, full-bodied coffee without the bitterness. The Barista Touch™ comes complete with a water filtration system to ensure your coffee is delicious, cup after cup – just remember to change your water filter every 90 days or after using 40L of water.

How to replace the water filter

To ensure nothing comes between you and the full-bodied flavour of your coffee, we recommend completing a clear water backflush of the system at the end of each brewing session. This removes any coffee oil residue buildup so your machine is always ready to make another exceptional cup of brew.

How to perform a clear water backflush

Regular maintenance and cleaning is crucial – and the smart design of the Barista Touch™ makes that easy. Your machine will notify you when a cleaning cycle is needed and we will guide you through it to produce better extractions and prevent a buildup of oils, milk or grounds with this step-to-step guide.

How to perform a cleaning cycle

To ensure that every coffee you create tastes its best, you’ll need to properly clean and maintain your machine. One essential step is to periodically rinse your shower screen. Simply follow our easy guide.
