When you use your coffee maker, espresso machine, or kettle frequently

calcium and magnesium deposits build up fast,

even during short breaks in usage.

It’s far more than an annual task—

it’s essential for optimal machine performance

and your beverages tasting clean.

Here’s how to maintain your machine without slowing down your routine

without disrupting your daily routine.

First, choose the right descaling solution

Many manufacturers recommend using a dedicated descaling agent formulated for your specific appliance

they outperform DIY mixes such as citric acid or lemon juice

that may linger and affect taste.

If you’d rather avoid chemical cleaners

a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and water works well

you must flush the system completely

to eliminate any lingering smell.

Plan your descaling for quiet hours

No matter how often you brew

there’s a gap in activity

during the lull between breakfast and lunch.

Block out half an hour every fortnight

for a quick descaling cycle

consistent cleaning avoids stubborn deposits

making each session quick and stress-free.

Always adhere to the guide provided by the brand

Certain units feature one-touch descaling

don’t skip this built-in feature

if not

pour the cleaner into the tank

cycle without inserting beans or milk froth

rinse thoroughly to eliminate traces

perform a minimum of two flushes

to ensure no descaler is left behind.

Don’t overlook the small parts

the water tank, drip tray, and any filters or tubes

clean them separately in a sink of soapy solution

during the main cleaning cycle

wipe down surfaces with a non-abrasive cloth

cleaning these parts alone prevents recurring issues

boosts the efficiency of the primary cycle.

Fifth, consider installing a water filter

a countertop or under-sink filter designed to reduce hardness

in your water carafe

can significantly reduce mineral content

before it reaches the boiler

it reduces how frequently you’ll need to clean

and with milder solutions.

Maintain a cleaning journal

note the date of each descaling session

observe the frequency of mineral deposits

if you notice scale forming faster than usual

your water may be harder than expected

or you might need to increase the frequency of your maintenance routine

adjusting based on real observations

prevents unexpected breakdowns.

By adopting these simple maintenance steps

you’ll extend the life of your equipment

improve performance

and guarantee every brew is rich and partakstore clean

no matter how busy you are.
