Maintenance Tips
- Clean brew funnel, sprayhead, and server contact points daily to prevent coffee oil buildup and maintain consistent extraction quality.
- Sanitize all coffee-contact parts (funnel, server lid, sprayhead area) daily using approved food-safe sanitizer to prevent contamination.
- Wipe exterior stainless steel surfaces daily with a damp cloth and mild detergent; avoid abrasives or pressure washing to protect finish and components.
- Descale the internal tank regularly (more often in hard-water areas) to prevent mineral scale buildup that reduces brew temperature and flow.
- Flush hot water through the system daily to remove coffee oils and keep internal lines clean for consistent flavor.
- Inspect sprayhead holes frequently and clean them to ensure even water distribution and proper extraction.
- Check server seals, gaskets, and lid assembly for wear or leaks and replace as needed to maintain heat retention and safe transport.
- Ensure server is seated correctly during brewing to avoid overflow or misalignment during high-volume cycles.
- Keep ventilation areas clear to prevent overheating during continuous commercial operation.
- Follow preventive maintenance schedule (sprayhead cleaning, gasket checks, internal inspection) to extend machine life and maintain 5.1 GPH performance.
