Use and Care
In order to keep the inside of your machine in ultimate functioning order, it must be periodically cleaned. Scale buildup from naturally occurring minerals in your water can build up on sensitive components like the inside of the boiler, which left unchecked can cause considerable damage to the machine. In addition, coffee oil build-up behind the shower screen (the part of the machine that comes into contact with the coffee grounds in the portafilter) can restrict the flow of water into the portafilter. This results in an uneven brew with insufficient pressure. By descaling your machine every month and cleaning it every other week (assuming you brew one to three shots of espresso per day), your machine will be trouble-free for years. We recommend a product like Urnex Dezcal for monthly descaling, and Urnex Cafiza for coffee-oil and scale cleaning semimonthly. The best preventative measure is to use properly treated water that has been purified and then balanced with a small amount of minerals.
