Maintenance Tips
Clean Group Head Daily – Use a group brush to remove coffee grounds and oils. Run hot water through the group to flush internal components.
Purge & Wipe Steam Wand After Each Use – Always purge steam before and after use to prevent milk buildup. Wipe with a damp cloth immediately.
Backflush Weekly (Without Detergent) – For semi-automatic machines with a tank, perform a water-only backflush weekly; use espresso cleaner monthly if manufacturer-approved.
Descale Every 2–3 Months – Use a descaling solution based on water hardness to prevent limescale in the boiler and internal piping.
Empty & Refill Water Tank Daily – Use fresh, filtered water. Avoid letting water sit in the tank for extended periods to prevent bacterial buildup.
Check and Replace Gaskets & Shower Screen – Inspect monthly; replace if worn to maintain pressure and ensure consistent extractions.
Keep Drip Tray and Exterior Clean – Wipe down surfaces daily and empty the drip tray regularly to maintain hygiene and machine appearance.
Schedule Annual Service – Have a certified technician inspect internal components yearly for wear, calibration, and safety checks.
