In Denmark, we recommend that the machine be descaled regularly using a double dosage of descaling liquid (after every 200 capsules), as instructed in your machine manual or when the machine indicates that it is time for descaling.
Please note that descaling may need to be performed more frequently than the alarm indicates due to the high levels of lime scale in Denmark. The machine will display the following symptoms when it is time to descale:- Poor flow
- Cold coffee / bad taste
- Squeaking sound
We highly recommend that you ensure you have set the correct water hardness on your machine. Additionally, please keep in mind that machines with any type of steampipe will require descaling more often (after 30-40 minutes of using the steamer).
To enhance the quality of your water and naturally reduce lime scale buildup, we recommend using a filter solution, as for example a Brita filter in conjunction with our descaling liquid. The Brita filter effectively reduces lime scale and provides fresh-tasting water, complementing the descaling process.
The descaling process prevents lime scale buildup in the machine, which can affect, taste, temperature and decrease water flow.- Use the Nespresso descaling kit with lactic acid for safe and effective cleaning without harm.
- Important: Descalers containing citric acid and vinegar may harm the machine and void the warranty.

All our Vertuo coffee machines are equipped with a descaling alert. Although the alert is described as half red and half green in your machine's user manual, the green light can appear to be yellow under certain conditions.
We recommend descaling your machine every 3 months or after 300 capsules, whichever comes first. Over time, water used during brewing may cause internal mineral build up, which can affect the flow, temperature and overall performance of your machine.
You may purchase a descaling kit online, by phone, or in any Nespresso Boutique. One kit contains enough descaling solution for two descalings.

Barista
If you are using a Barista device, please make sure to follow the recipe book for best results.
Kindly be informed that the Aeroccino exceeds the industry standards for milk froth, resulting in a very thick foam. On the other hand, the Barista provides the foam that aligns with today's industry standards.
All the recipies are tested and measured to give the best milk foam suited for each coffeedrink.Also check that the jug and whisk has been cleaned and always use cold and fresh milk.
AeroccinoTo be sure you will get a nice and full-bodied milk foam from your Aeroccino or integrated milk frother, there are some things to think about;
First, the milk foam is affected by the milk frother itself - that it is well cleaned and works as it should, secondly the quality of the milk foam depends on the milk you use.
Since milk is a very interesting topic itself, we have prepared a separate section for how milk works, click in "I want to learn more about how milk works" to get there!
Most of the information and help with troubleshooting of your machine can be found in machine assistance page on our website.
If you have an Aeroccino that does not foam the milk anymore, there are a few things you can investigate before contacting us:
1. Make sure the whisk is spinning properly. Sometimes the magnet that holds and spins the whisk loses its power, this can be solved by a light tap on a hard surface - e.g. on a table, this will put the magnet back in place again. Also make sure that the milk gets hot and that the red light glows steadily during foaming.
2. Are you following the maximum level of milk in your Aeroccino? If you have too much milk, it may be difficult to get a good foam.
3. Is the milk fresh and cold? Completely fresh milk with high fat level, as well as milk with a long shelf life, usually gives the best foam. If the milk has been left outside, or if it has been opened a few days, this will affect the foam. If possible, try another milk and make sure you use the whisk with the thick spring (if you have an Aeroccino with two whisks).
Avoid foaming milk or other substitutes (e.g. oat drink or soy beverage) containing sugar, as this may burn and damage your Aeroccino.
