Maintenance
- Cleaning: The machine is not dishwasher safe. Clean all removable parts with warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Wipe the main unit with a damp cloth.
- Gas Release: After each brew, it is necessary to open the coffee powder chamber to release gas pressure. Failure to do so may block the machine's ability to pump water for subsequent brews.
