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.
