2-. Internal cleaning: 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.

Coffee Washer use recommendations:

Coffee/day	Descaling

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.
