CLEANING THE STEAM WAND

IMPORTANT

After every use, thoroughly wipe the steam wand
and tip with a damp cloth & purge immediately.
Failure to clean the steam wand may affect the
milk texturing performance.
• If any of the holes in the tip of the steam wand
become blocked, ensure the machine stopped
steaming and unblock using the steam tip
cleaning tool.
• If steam wand remains blocked, remove the
tip and soak together with steam wand using
the provided steam wand cleaning powder
(instructions below). Screw tip back onto the
steam wand after rinsing.
• The steam wand can be left immersed in the
milk jug filled with water when not in use to
reduce the risk of blockages.
Steam Wand Cleaning Powder
1. Add 1 packet into an empty milk jug.
2. Add 1 cup (8oz/240ml) hot water into
milk jug.
3. Remove steam tip and place with steam wand
into jug.
4. Leave to soak for 20 minutes.
Steam Wand
Tip

Place wand back into the jug and
activate steam for 10 seconds.
6. Allow to soak for 5 minutes.
7. Activate steam several times to purge the
steam wand, then rinse the wand thoroughly.
8. Wipe the steam wand dry with a clean cloth.
9. Discard solution & rinse jug thoroughly.
NOTE
Please ensure the steam wand tip is tightly
fastened after cleaning to avoid temp sensing error.
CLEANING THE FILTER BASKET
AND PORTAFILTER
• The filter basket and portafilter should be rinsed
under hot water after each coffee making
session to remove all residual coffee oils.
• If the holes in the filter basket become blocked,
dissolve a cleaning tablet in hot water and soak
filter basket and portafilter in solution for approx.
20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
CLEAR WATER BACKFLUSH
• After each coffee making session we
recommend doing a clear water backflush
before you turn off the machine. Empty drip tray.
Insert the cleaning disc into the filter basket then
insert the portafilter into the group head. Touch
the 'Brew' button and allow pressure to build
for 20 seconds, then touch to stop & release
pressure. Repeat this 5 times to purge any fine
coffee grounds and residual coffee oils from
the brew water paths.

CLEANING THE SHOWER SCREEN

• The group head interior and shower screen
should be wiped with a damp cloth to remove
any ground coffee particles.
• Periodically, run hot water through the group
head with the filter basket and portafilter in
place, but without ground coffee. This will
remove any residual ground coffee particles
from the shower screen.
• If there seems to be stubborn build up on the
shower screen, use the allen key to undo the
screw in the middle of the shower screen,
making note of which side faces into the
group head.
