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 steam
lever is in the center OFF position and
unblock using the steam tip cleaning
tool. Even partially blocked holes may
affect the ability of the steam wand to
produce sufficient foam volume.
• 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.
5. Clean, rinse and replace steam tip.
Place wand back into the jug and
activate steam for 10 seconds.
CARE & CLEANING
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.

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. Press the 2 CUP button and allow
pressure to build for 20secs, then press
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.
