Coffeemaker Cleaning
Your coffeemaker must be cleaned when you begin to notice excessive steaming or the brewing time increases considerably. This condition is caused by a buildup of lime and mineral deposits from your water. If the pumping action stops before all the water has been pumped out of the machine, then the appliance requires cleaning. The frequency of cleaning depends on the hardness of water used. The following table gives the suggested cleaning intervals.
Suggested Cleaning Interval
Type Of Water | Cleaning Frequency |
Soft Water | Every 80 Brew Cycles |
Hard Water | Every 40 Brew Cycles |
