5. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your coffee maker.

5.1 Daily Cleaning

• Portafilter and Filter Baskets: After each use, remove the portafilter, discard coffee grounds, and rinse the portafilter and filter basket under running water.
• Steam Wand: Immediately after frothing milk, wipe the steam wand with a damp cloth. Purge a small amount of steam to clear any internal milk residue.
• Drip Tray: Empty and rinse the drip tray daily or when the indicator floats up.
• Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the machine with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.

5.2 Descaling

Mineral deposits from water can build up over time, affecting performance. Descale your machine every 2-3 months, or more frequently if you have hard water.

1. Prepare a descaling solution according to the descaler manufacturer's instructions, or use a mixture of white vinegar and water (1:1 ratio).
2. Fill the water reservoir with the descaling solution.
3. Place a large container under the portafilter and another under the steam wand.
4. Turn on the machine and run about half of the solution through the portafilter by pressing the coffee brewing button.
5. Turn the steam knob to release steam through the wand until about half of the remaining solution is used.
6. Turn off the machine and let it sit for 15-20 minutes.
7. Repeat steps 4-6 until all the descaling solution has passed through the machine.
8. Rinse the water reservoir thoroughly and fill it with fresh, clean water.
9. Run several cycles of clean water through both the portafilter and steam wand to flush out any remaining descaling solution.
