Descaling a delonghi magnifica or bosch tassimo coffee machine - special tools

In this way, we move on to the most important issue, namely the descaling process. Of course, the best effect will be guaranteed by a descaling specialist.

We can use the drug prepared by the machine manufacturer in the ways specified in the device manual, or we can choose universal products, of which there are many on the market. They come in the form of liquids, powders and tablets.

Regardless of the final choice, we should always be familiar with all the information on the drug packaging or in the user manual.

We begin descaling by removing the filter, then removing the water container and rinsing it. Then fill it again with water and add descaling agent (the instructions should indicate the amount of water and the required descaling agent to use).

Then we assemble the car. If it has an automatic descaling function, simply activate the appropriate program.

After descaling is completed, rinse the water container thoroughly. Then fill it with water again and go through the process of brewing coffee three times.

This will thoroughly rinse the entire device, so you can get back to making coffee (real coffee this time).

The whole process seems time-consuming (especially without using a special function), but it is necessary if you want your device to last a long time and the coffee to taste the best possible.
