De-Scaling Your Brewer
Mineral content in water varies from place to place. Depending on the mineral
content of the water in your area, calcium deposits or scale may build up in
your Brewer. Scale is non-toxic, but left unattended, it can hinder Brewer
performance. De-scaling your Brewer helps maintain the heating element
and other internal parts of the Brewer that come in contact with water.
The Brewer should be de-scaled every 3-6 months to ensure optimal
performance. It is possible for calcium deposits to build up faster, making it
necessary to de-scale more often.
