Traditional espresso machines need some
minor service. Far too many people neglect cleaning
their machines, but if you want the absolute best
espresso you can get, you need to look after your coffee
machine!
Caffe Brush: Used for cleaning
around grinder and/or portafilter.
Price: $11.00 including GST (Australian
Dollars)
Caffe Cleaner: Back flushing is crucial to
any machine with a pressure release system, often called
a 3 way solenoid valve. Most machines over $600 feature
this kind of instant pressure relief in the grouphead
when you end your espresso shot. This valve, which
directs all the built up pressure into a waste area
(usually the drip tray) has one unfortunate side effect,
an increase of what can only be described as "coffee
gunk" in and around the grouphead and shower screen.
Each Caffe Cleaner sachet can be used for approximately
20 - 24 back flushes. Please see
Caffe Cleaner for
more information
Remember that all machines with a pressure release
system are based on the same principle but manufacturers
may stipulate different methods and chemicals, so please
read your machine’s instruction manual before starting
this cleaning routine.
