To obtain top quality
espresso coffee it is vital to clean the
inner workings of the machine. To clean the
interior of the distribution unit, use
Ascaso Coffee Washer. This product is also
useful to prevent limescale buildup in the
machine. Regular descaling will contribute
to ensuring top quality coffee and it will
prolong the useful life of the machine.
Consult your distributor.
To avoid limescale buildup, you can also use
water treatment filters. However, it is
advisable to clean the machine in accordance
with consumption.
Using filters and Coffee Washer will help to
maintain the coffee machine in optimum
working condition for longer. Important: It
is advisable not to leave the pod or ground
coffee in the filterholder.
Otherwise, coffee will build up affecting
the taste of the coffee. Should this occur,
run a load of water through the system.
