Care and cleaning
The espresso making process involves
extracting oils out of coffee grinds.
Deposits of grinds and oils build up over
time affecting the taste of the coffee and
operation of the espresso machine.
Purging water through the group head and
steam wand before and after making coffee
is the easiest way to keep your machine
clean.
