Daily Cleaning Routine
Frothing Wand
There are no excuses for not cleaning the frothing wand after every time milk is frothed. NEVER! - place the frothing wand in a container of liquid!
Ensure the frothing wand remains clean at all times ... after each frothing, wipe the wand clean with a damp cloth and supply a one second full pressure burst of steam to clean out the inside of the frothing wand.
NB: If the Frothing Wand is neglected, a crust of dried milk forms on the inside and outside, eventually blocking the steam nozzle. This leads to milk finding its way into the boiler and rotting the water, resulting in a major breakdown situation.
Drip Tray
Remove the drip tray and wire rack located below the group heads and wash them.
Waste Drain Tub
Flush out the waste drain tub underneath the drip tray. Remove excess coffee grounds to keep the drain unblocked.
Counter Top
Wipe the counter top underneath the machine.
