Descaling
Over time, limescale residues form inside the appliance. Descale the appliance at
least every 2-3 months.
1
Pour water and descaler in a ratio of 4:1 into the water tank until it is filled
with water up to the maximum mark. Use a household descaler for this
purpose. If you use citric acid for descaling, the ratio of water to citric acid is
100:3.
2
Secure the filter holder (without coffee powder) in the brew group head (see
section 'Making espresso').
3
Press the coffee button and prepare approximately 150 ml of coffee (or make
3 cups of coffee). Then press the steam button. The appliance heats up. Open
the steam knob as soon as the steam indicator lights up steadily. Allow steam
to escape for about 2 minutes and turn the steam knob off. Now leave the
descaler in the appliance for at least 15 minutes.
4
Repeat step 4 3 times.
5
Press the button for 2 cups of coffee and repeat this step until there is no
descaler left in the appliance.
