Descaling your espresso machine regularly is important for an optimal coffee taste. Built-up limescale can cause the water temperature to decrease, resulting in a more acidic extraction of your espresso.
It also limits and can even obstruct the amount of water flowing through the pipes, significantly affecting the performance of the machine.
Application: Always follow the device manufacture’s descaling instructions!
Instructions for use for fully automatic coffee machines and espresso machines without automatic descaling program:
1. Completely dissolve the contents of the bag (50 g) in 1 liter of warm (max. 50 °C) water.
2. Switch on the appliance and pour 2 cups of water through the steam nozzle
(if not available, through the hot water nozzle) (approx. 150 ml each).
3. Switch off the appliance.
4. allow the descaling solution to work for 15-20 minutes.
Leave to work.
5. Carry out process 2 until the descaling solution in the water tank is completely used up.
6. After descaling, rinse the tank with tap water.
Then rinse the machine with one or two tankfuls of tap water.
