De-Scaling your Brewer Mineral content in water varies from place to place. Depending on the mineral content of the water in your area, calcium deposits or scale may build up in your brewer. Though scale is non-toxic, it can hinder brewer performance. De-scaling your brewer will help maintain the heating element and other parts that come in contact with water. For optimal performance, de-scale your brewer every 3 to 6 months.
