Maintenance Tips
-
Daily sprayhead cleaning: Remove and clean the sprayhead holes to prevent clogging and ensure even water distribution over coffee grounds.
-
Deliming routine (key step): Insert a deliming spring into the sprayhead tube and move it back and forth to remove scale buildup, especially in hard-water areas.
-
Flush after cleaning: Run a brew cycle with plain water (no coffee) to flush loosened mineral deposits and residue from internal lines.
-
Daily surface sanitizing: Wipe funnel, brewer exterior, and contact areas with a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive detergent.
-
Airpot hygiene: Clean and dry airpots thoroughly after each use to prevent stale coffee oils and odor transfer.
-
Descale regularly: Perform full descaling every 1–3 months (monthly if hard water) to maintain heating efficiency and brew consistency.
-
Avoid water jets: Never pressure-wash components; it can damage seals and electrical parts.
-
Check spray pattern: A properly cleaned sprayhead should evenly saturate grounds; uneven flow signals clogging.
-
Preventive maintenance: Inspect seals, funnel rails, and water flow system periodically to avoid leaks and inconsistent brewing.
