Care and Cleaning

The coffee making process involves extracting oils out of coffee grinds to make espresso coffee. Deposits of these oils build up over time and affect the taste of the coffee and operation of the espresso machine.

Regular cleaning to remove these oils is essential for espresso machines to keep operating effectively. Flushing water, through the brewing head and the steam wand, is the easiest way to keep your machine clean after making each coffee, and at the end of your coffee making session.

Important: Never wash your espresso machine accessories in the dishwasher.

Drip tray

Remove the grid and drip tray at regular intervals to empty (32), (33). If the red floating level indicator appears through the grid, empty the drip tray immediately.

Clean the drip tray and its grid with water and a little non-abrasive washing up liquid, rinse and dry.

Over time it is normal for the inside of the drip tray to be stained by the oils in the coffee.

Note: Ensure that when you are replacing the drip tray that the plastic lining is in position (34).

The brewing head, filters & group handle

The filter and group handle should be washed after each use by rinsing them under warm water. Wash at regular intervals in warm soapy water using a mild detergent.

To clean the brewing head, flush water through and wipe the head and around the inside rim with a damp cloth.

To assist in keeping the filter and the brew head clean, at the end of each coffee making session we recommend you run the machine, with the filter in place, without coffee – using water only.

Should the holes in the filters become clogged with coffee granules use a fine bristled brush to remove them.

Important: Should the filter remain blocked after normal cleaning, supplied with your espresso machine is a cleaning wire. The cleaning wire for the filter is located on the underside of the lid to the water reservoir

(28)with the cleaning wire insert it into the single hole in the base of the filter (31).
