OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE GOURMET SINGLE CUP BREWER™
ONE-TIME PRIMING PROCESS
Priming fills the internal tank with water and
cleanses the brewing system. You cannot
use your Brewer until it has been primed for
its first use.
NOTE:
If the Brewer has been exposed to
temperatures below freezing, allow
the Brewer at least two hours to
reach room temperature before
priming. A frozen or extremely cold
Brewer will not prime properly and
can cause damage.
1. Unwrap the power cord and plug the
Brewer into a grounded outlet.
2. Place a 12 oz. mug on the Drip Tray
Plate. The drip tray plate and drip tray
can be removed to accomodate taller
mugs and travel mugs.
3. Fill the Water Tank with water up to the
'MAX' mark on the viewing window.
The Water Tank can be filled in two ways:
a) Remove the Water Tank Lid and pour
water directly into the Water Tank
while it is still attached to the Brewer,
then replace the Lid.
b) Remove the Water Tank Lid, then
gripping the handle located on the left
side of the Water Tank, lift upwards.
Fill with water. Place the Water Tank
back onto the Brewer and replace
the Lid.
NOTE:
Do not use water that has been
treated by a 'water softener'. The
increase in sodium levels in the
water can cause scaling in the
brewer and hinder its performance.
4. Press and release the Power Switch
located on the lower back, right side of
the Brewer. The Power Switch is spring
loaded and will return to its original
position.
NOTE:
For BKC600XL priming information,
please refer to page 30.
5. The Water Tank LED and LCD screen will
illuminate. The Brewer will automatically
fill with water and make a quiet vibrating
sound. This is normal. The LCD screen
will indicate 'HEATING'.
8. Set the date dial on the Upper Filter
Holder 2 months ahead. This will
remind you when the Charcoal Filter
will need to be replaced.
9. Place the assembled Filter Holder into
the Water Tank, aligning so the date
dial is visible from outside the Tank.
Push down hard on the assembled
Filter Holder until it snaps into place.
10. Your Brewer is ready for the one-time
priming process.
NOTE:
Replace the Water Filter every
2 months, or 60 tank refills, more
if you have hard water.
To order replacement Water
Filters, visit www.breville.com.
We recommend removing the Water
Filter if you choose not to replace
the Water Filter every 2 months, as
the filter may clog and affect the
smell and taste of the water.

NOTE:
If the Water Tank is empty or not in
place on the Brewer, the Water Tank
LED’s will flash and the LCD screen
will indicate ‘REFILL TANK’. None
of the control panel buttons will be
active until water is added to the
Water Tank.
6. Once the water is heated, the LCD
screen will indicate 'OPEN HEAD'. Open
the Brewing Chamber Head by raising
and lowering the Safety Locking Arm
completely. Do not insert a K-Cup

a cleansing brew which will complete
the priming sequence. Hot water will
flow into your mug. When the water flow
stops, discard the hot water.
NOTE:
The Brewer will take about 4 minutes
to heat up during the priming
process.
8. The LCD screen will indicate ‘HEATING’
as the Brewer heats the water for the
next brew cycle. Once the water is
heated, the LCD screen may indicate
‘REFILL TANK’.
