MAINTENANCE & CLEANING
Descaling
Your coffee machine needs to be descaled regularly in order to con-
tinue to ensure optimum performance. If minerals are deposited on
the heating element of your Moccamaster, this can inhibit the water
flow and negatively impact on the brewing temperature and the
taste of the coffee. Without regular descaling with the right agent, it
is possible that at some point the appliance will no longer function.
Using a good descaler (with additives that make sure the agent
does not damage the components of the appliance) will extend the
lifespan of your Moccamaster.
1) It is recommended that you descale the appliance once every
100 cycles (guideline: after every box of 100 filter bags) or at least
once every 3 months.
2) Preferably use the recommended special descaling products. Ask
your supplier for the correct descaling product.
3) Follow the instructions for use of the descaling product
4) Switch the appliance on and wait until the liquid has flowed into
the jug.
5) Repeat the process two or three times with clean water in order to
rinse the appliance.
Cleaning
Outside:
Remove the power plug from the socket and allow the appliance to
cool before cleaning. Regularly clean the outside of the appliance
with a damp cloth and dry it afterwards.
Regularly clean the jug, filter holder and lids to maintain a good cof-
fee flavour.
Thermos jug: dissolve dishwasher detergent in hot water, brush after
an hour and rinse thoroughly with clean water.
Inside:
The inside of the coffee machine should also be cleaned regularly to
maintain a good coffee flavour: 4-6 times a year depending on use.
Ask your supplier which product is safe and reliable.
