5.2 Descaling

Mineral deposits from water can build up in your coffee maker over time, affecting performance. Descale your coffee maker regularly (e.g., monthly or every 40-80 uses, depending on water hardness).

1. Fill each water reservoir with white vinegar up to the 12-cup mark.
2. Place empty carafes on the warming plates.
3. Turn on both brewing cycles and allow half of the vinegar solution to brew through.
4. Turn off the coffee maker and let it sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the vinegar to work.
5. Turn the coffee maker back on and allow the remaining vinegar solution to brew through.
6. Empty the carafes and rinse them thoroughly.
7. Run two full cycles of fresh, clean water through the coffee maker to remove any residual vinegar taste.
