Descaling
Regular descaling prolongs the lifetime of your coffeemaker and guarantees optimal brewing results
for a long time.
In case of normal use (two full jugs of coffee every day), descale the appliance:
- 2 or 3 times a year if you use soft water (up to 18dH);
- 4 or 5 times a year if you use hard water (over 18dH).
You can use white vinegar with 4% acetic acid or an appropriate liquid descaler. If you use a liquid
descaler, follow the instructions on the package.
