3. Descaling Instructions

Nespresso recommends descaling your machine at least once per year. For detailed, machine-specific descaling procedures, always refer to the user manual of your Nespresso machine or visit the official Nespresso website at www.nespresso.com/descaling.

The general steps for descaling are as follows:

1. Empty the water tank and the used capsule container.
2. Pour one sachet (100ml) of Nespresso Descaling Solution into the water tank.
3. Fill the rest of the water tank with fresh water.
4. Place a large container (minimum 1 liter capacity) under the coffee outlet.
5. Initiate the descaling cycle according to your specific Nespresso machine model's instructions. This usually involves pressing and holding certain buttons.
6. Allow the machine to complete the descaling cycle, which will flush the solution through the system.
7. Once the descaling cycle is complete, empty and rinse the water tank thoroughly.
8. Refill the water tank with fresh water only.
9. Run at least two full water tanks of fresh water through the machine to rinse it completely.
10. Your Nespresso machine is now descaled and ready for use.

Note: Always consult your Nespresso machine's user manual for precise descaling instructions, as procedures may vary slightly between models.
