The Beginner's Guide to Coffee Machine Maintenance

Serious Mealtimes / Nick Simpson

The best way to clean your espresso machine is to use a group head cleaning brush daily. For a thorough cleaning we recommend backwashing with Urnex Cafiza Tablets (if your espresso machine has this option). It is also a good idea to clean the drip tray.

It is extremely important to keep your espresso machine clean. Coffee oils stick to metal surfaces and become rancid over time imparting stale bitter flavors. Additionally coffee grounds and limescale can block water pipes which are expensive to unclog.
