Descaling
Regular descaling prolongs the life of the appliance and guarantees optimal brewing results for a
long time.
In case of normal use (two brewing cycles a day), descale your coffeemaker:
- Every two months if you use soft or ltered water (up to 18dH);
- Every month if you use hard water (over 18dH).
Contact your local water board for information about the water hardness in your area.
