What we found on this machine
Checked against
Breville's Coffee Chart, page 8 of the Smart Grinder Pro instruction book. Read September 07, 2026.
Breville prints four bands across the 1-60 dial: espresso 1-30, percolator 31-45, drip filter 46-54 and plunger 55-60. "Plunger" is French press — it is what a cafetière is called where this booklet is printed, and it is the coarsest band on the dial.
The percolator band is deliberately not mapped. Breville places it between espresso and drip filter, which makes it a stovetop percolator at medium-fine, while this site charts percolator at 900-1200 microns — the same window as French press. Mapping it would put one micron figure at two different clicks and hand the model a curve that doubles back on itself. A band whose meaning is uncertain is left out rather than guessed at.
This is one machine sold under two names: Breville in some markets, Sage in others. The same chart is entered under both, rather than one page borrowing the other's source.

Breville Smart Grinder Pro — frequently asked questions
Is the Breville Smart Grinder Pro a manual or electric grinder?
The Breville Smart Grinder Pro is an electric grinder with 40 mm conical burrs.
What grind sizes can the Breville Smart Grinder Pro produce?
At its coarsest the Breville Smart Grinder Pro reaches about 1167 µm, covering 15 of the brew methods we chart. Its finest setting isn't published, so we don't state one.
Can I copy grind settings from another grinder to the Breville Smart Grinder Pro?
Not directly — every grinder's scale is arbitrary, so a number that works on one model won't match the Breville Smart Grinder Pro. Match the micron range instead, using the chart above.
