Tips to keep your DeLonghi limescale-free

It is important to properly protect your espresso machine against limescale build-up. Too much limescale can prevent your boiler from heating properly and may negatively affect the taste of your coffee.

Make sure to replace your water filter on time. This DeLonghi water filter should be replaced every 2 months.

In addition, it is essential to descale your machine every 3 months. Use a descaler specifically designed for espresso machines, such as the Cafetto descaler in the recognizable green box.
