Daily Cleaning

Descaling

Mineral deposits from water can build up over time, affecting performance. Descale your coffee machine regularly, depending on water hardness and frequency of use (e.g., every 2-4 months).

1. Prepare Descaling Solution: Mix a descaling solution according to the manufacturer's instructions (e.g., white vinegar and water, or a commercial descaling agent).
2. Fill Water Tank: Pour the descaling solution into the water tank up to the MAX level.
3. Run Cycle: Place the empty thermos jug on the base. Start a brewing cycle without coffee.
4. Soak: After about half the solution has brewed through, turn off the machine and let it sit for 15-30 minutes to allow the solution to work.
5. Complete Cycle: Turn the machine back on to complete the brewing cycle.
6. Rinse Cycles: After the descaling cycle, run 2-3 full cycles with fresh, clean water to rinse out any remaining descaling solution.
