Cleaning Your Coffeemaker
5 March; Author: Espresso-Anytime
As with most things, the best way to keep your coffeemaker performing to its potential is to clean it regularly. There are several options for this, but one of the most widely practiced is using vinegar. The process is quite simple.
Start by running a cycle of vinegar through your coffee machine, and stopping it three-quarters of the way through to let it soak. Once this is done, repeat the process with clean water before brewing your next pot. If you are like me and neglect your machine, chances are that there is some considerable buildup and mineral deposits impeding the flow. When this happens, you will need an espresso decalcifier to get your machine back in working condition.
