How to clean your coffee machine
Why do I need to clean my coffee machine regularly?
Coffee oils, milk residue, and limescale affect the taste of your coffee and can damage the machine over time. Regular cleaning keeps the machine in good condition and extends its service life.
What is the difference between cleaning and descaling?
Cleaning removes coffee oils, milk residue, and other substances that accumulate on surfaces and in brew groups - descaling dissolves limescale deposits inside the machine's water system. Both are necessary, but at different intervals and using different products.
Do I need to clean the milk system separately?
Yes, milk residues can quickly become a breeding ground for bacteria and affect the taste. Most fully automatic machines with milk systems have their own cleaning program and dedicated cleaning agents for this.
