COFFEE CLEAN - Espresso Coffee Machine Backflush / Cleaning Powder - 570g
REGULAR CLEANING MAINTAINS THE QUALITY OF ESPRESSO
Each time you brew delicious espresso using your coffee machine - a little of this delicious brew is left behind. Espresso oil residue accumulates in the brewing system, filter-holder and coffee filter basket. After only a few hours this coffee oil residue becomes stale - creating a nasty almost burnt taste.
If you have ever bought a coffee and experienced an unpleasant "burnt" taste - it is likely that the coffee machine was not clean. Equally if the coffee from your home or business espresso machine tastes burnt or stale - its time to clean it.
Use this powder to clean the brewing system(s), filter-holder(s), coffee filter basket(s), and shower screen(s) in your espresso machine - regular cleaning removes the coffee residue allowing you to brew the freshest and cleanest tasting espresso.

HOW TO BACKFLUSH YOUR ESPRESSO MACHINE
IMPORTANT: Ensure your Espresso Machine can be cleaned by backflushing - not all espresso machines are capable of being backflushed so it is important to know whether your machine has this ability before you proceed.
Insert the blind coffee filter basket (one with no holes) into a filter-holder and lock this into the machine to heat up (the detergent works better with heat)
Remove the filter-holder from the machine and fill the blind basket with 1 teaspoon (3-5 g) of espresso machine backflush / cleaning powder
Connect the filter-holder to the espresso machine in the normal fashion
Start the brewing cycle for 10 seconds and stop the brewing cycle for 10 seconds - repeat this operation 5 times
This operation will transfer cleaner throughout the brewing system
Now wait for 5-10 minutes - leave the filter-holder in the machine - cleaner is deposited throughout the brewing system - allow it to do its job
After 5-10 minutes remove the filter-holder and rinse it clean
Once again, connect the filter-holder to the espresso machine in the normal fashion
Start the brewing cycle for 10 seconds and stop the brewing cycle for 10 seconds - repeat this operation 5 times
This operation will flush the cleaner from the brewing system
Done
HOW TO CLEAN FILTER HOLDERS AND COFFEE BASKETS
Remove coffee filter baskets from each filter-holder
Fill a container with sufficient hot water to immerse the coffee filter baskets and the ends of each filter-holder where the baskets are inserted
Do not immerse the handles of your filter-holder into the cleaning solution
Add 10g of espresso machine cleaning powder for every litre of water to make cleaning solution
Immerse into the cleaning solution the coffee filter baskets and the ends of each filter-holder where the baskets are inserted
Wait 15 minutes
After 15 minutes remove all components from the cleaning solution and rinse with hot water.
