Cleaning your Coffee Machine
The start to great coffee is a clean espresso machine -however good the beans you have if the coffee handle and group heads contain the dreaded grease [ which quickly goes rancid ] its impossible to produce a decent cup.
The procedure is very simple -every night put the blank filter in one of the coffee handle’s, lock into the group head and press the button to make coffee. Run for a maximum of 10 seconds [ longer and you will burn out the valve] = repeat 6 times and once a week use the proper cleaning detergent.
Do not, as we have found some customers, use descaler - it has to be a detergent designed to dissolve the coffee grease .
In addition leave your coffee handle minus the filter basket in some warm water and detergent overnight - it will remove the black stain from the inside. Ensure only the metal part of the handle is soaking in the mixture as it can remove or fade the colour of any plastics.
