Coffee oils and limescale build up whether you notice or not, and both wreck flavor before they wreck your machine. This is our shelf for keeping gear running clean: Cafiza tablets for portafilters and group heads, Dezcal for descaling boilers and brewers, and a group brush for the daily wipe-down. A five-minute habit here saves you from a bitter, burnt cup and a machine repair bill.
Cleaning
Oils and limescale ruin flavor before you notice. Cafiza strips built-up oils, Dezcal clears mineral buildup. A few minutes a week keeps your gear running clean and your coffee tasting right.
Cafiza is a barista-standard cleaner built to strip built-up coffee oils from portafilters, baskets, and group heads. The tablets dissolve straight into a backflush cycle. Run it weekly on a home espresso machine and you will notice the difference in the very next cup.
Dezcal Handles the Limescale
Hard water leaves mineral deposits inside boilers, pipes, and brew baskets, slowing water flow and throwing off temperature. Dezcal dissolves that buildup without the harsh smell of vinegar or citric acid. The single sachet covers one descale, the liquid bottle and 3-pack are for machines that need it more often.
Build a Cleaning Habit, Not a Rescue Mission
A quick wipe with a group brush after every shot keeps oils from ever building up in the first place. Save the deep Cafiza backflush for weekly, and run Dezcal on a schedule based on how hard your water is, monthly for most home setups. Little and often beats a full rescue mission every few months.
