CLEANING MINERAL DEPOSITS
1. To ensure your espresso maker operates efficiently and coffee retains its peak flavour and the
internal piping is clean, the mineral deposits should be removed every 2 to 3 months.
2. Fill the tank with water and descaler to the MAX level (the scale of water and descaler is 4:1, the
detail refers to the instructions on the descaler. Please use “household descaler”, you can use the citric
acid (obtainable from a chemist’s or a drug store) instead of the descaler (the one hundred parts of
water and three parts of citric acid).
Always use fresh ground coee.
Store unused ground coee in a
cool, dry place. Reseal open
packages and store in refrigerator
to maintain freshness.
