In this blog, we will take a closer look at the importance of descaling and cleaning your coffee maker so that you enjoy your cup of coffee for a longer period of time. Whether you have a classic coffee maker or a modern espresso machine, it is important to descale and clean regularly. Not only for the great taste of your coffee, but also to extend the lifespan of your coffee maker.
Do you have a classic coffee maker at home, or a Senseo, Nespresso or Dolce Gusto? To ensure a long lifespan for your appliance, it is wise to descale and clean your coffee maker on a regular basis.
How do you know if your coffee maker needs descaling?
A coffee maker often lets you know by itself when it is time to descale. Especially the more luxurious coffee makers will have a notification appearing on the display from time to time. Once you get this notification, it is time to descale the appliance soon. You can also check whether your coffee maker needs descaling by looking in the water tank. If you see small white crystals on the bottom or walls, it is a sign that you need to descale the machine.
