Did you do the whole run a cycle with white vinegar thing?
I have manufacturer de-scaler (espresso machine)
That's probably citric acid then. It's usually one or the other.
Love when the light comes on and I have an excuse to give it extra attention.
I heard you shouldn‘t use vinegar as this fucks up the taste? Or is this big decalcifyer propaganda?
It won't mess up the taste as long as you run a water cycle or two afterwards.
It can damage the seals. Citric acid works much better and is safer. Will also never leave an after taste.
But apple cider vinegar cures polio, that's just RFK.
Citric acid works significantly better.
You just mix it with water?
I'm not ready for this amount of excitement. Calm it down, guys!!
Heck yeah, so satisfying!
I plan to do this tomorrow. I'm looking forward to the first coffee after descaling.
That’s good, it clogs up the pipes if you don’t and can break the compressor. Depending on where you live and if you have a water softener it can happen pretty quickly
Thank you for the reminder (have never cleaned mine)
Never? How long has it been?
Does the coffee taste any different after a good machine cleaning?
Tastes like vinegar if you do it wrong
Never, I don’t use vinegar
Nope! Citric acid is tasteless
Dang! Must find food-grade sillicongrease ....
What do you have to use? Yeah some types of bean are especially oily
Edit: What beans
