I bought my machine six years ago and never realised there was a descale or clean cycle before.
I gave it two cycles using citric acid descaling tablets on the grounds that if I didn't get all of the descaler out it would make my next cup of coffee taste faintly of lemons rather than a fish&chip supper
Thanks for the video, coffee tastes so much better now.
I bought this item second-hand today no instructions so very informative thank you Amigo
Thank you for your information about the acids that can be used and if it should be neat or diluted. I can’t be asked to go and get the nespresso cleaner, but I have 4 litres of white distilled vinegar that I use for cleaning, so result!
Thank you! Running my descale cycle now.
Just did it! The only thing was I did not expect it to come out from both nozzles the first pass 😆. Otherwise, it is very easy to follow. Thanks!
you should not use vinegar in modern coffee machines, use citric acid instead. It is cheap and works just as well. The plastics in modern coffee machines are only moderately compatible with acetic acid, whereas citric acid is usually no problem. In fact many commercial descaling tablets or fluids contain nothing more then citric acid.
There is the added bonus that if you don't quite get all the cleaner out your first coffee will taste faintly of lemons rther than like you are drinking a fish&chip supper.
Excellent. Thanks
Thank you so very much stuck in ISO no coffee machine cleaner. You are a superstar
It’s a great - cheap hack :)
Best description I have watched. Thanks.
Thanks! This was so helpful!
i use CLR then serve my guesses the rank cleaning juice highly recommended
Hahaha, make ricotta with the milk
I had problems with the descaling light staying on after the descaling cycle.
Here are two tips:
Firstly whatever descaling solution you use, fill it up to 600mls as per the owners book. Turn on machine and fit descaling pipe to milk outlet. (Pipe stored in fold down flap in front of milk container stand)
Once the descaling cycle finishes which takes a long time as the machine starts and stops throughout the cycle so just let it do its thing.
Secondly once it finishes descaling fill water tank to max and during the flush cycle add 300mls more water. The machine measures how much water passes through and obviously not calibrated for just the 1 litre tank capacity. This should reset the descale light once it finishes.
Others have mentioned the light did not go off after the full cycle using the instructions above so use the instructions for the water hardness settings and set it to lowest setting then you can reset it later. I have not experienced this problem so can't guarantee it???
Easy and to the point. Thanks mate.
Thanks this was very helpful, Can i emmerse the black part of my milk frother completely in water? I was never sure so I've never did that before, I've always just cleaned the rubber straw and unscrewed the small black part that connects to the machine and cleaned those two parts never the whole thing
Brilliant , thanks heaps
Thank you 🙏 very helpful.
Anyone can use any acidic solution they wish in their Nespresso. There are some things vinegar users should be ware of that you did not mention but can be easily researched with a bit of effort. 1. Culinary vinegar is not strong enough to dissolve scale. 2. You need garden or utility strength vinegar. 3. Espresso professionals do not use vinegar because the lingering taste and smell is more difficult to get rid of than just using proper descaling products. 4. Nespresso’s proprietary descaler is based on lactic acid and specifically designed not to harm anything in their machines like tubes or connectors. 5. Citric acid is not generally recommended for Nespresso because lazy and ignorant users tend to use far too high concentrations. 6. The Nespresso kit is not very expensive and it is convenient but totally unnecessary if you know what you’re doing.
Very helpful! Thanks
would you know how much citric acid to water should be used?
@@anastasiyakoval9801 I do. So can you, just use the internet search tool of your choice.
Thank you 🙏
These stubborn tourists should be given permanant residency in Nokor!
hi, may i know the model of this machine. its kindda cute 😆
Thank you
I was told by the rep that using vinegar may damage the machine because the stuff may come out in chunks
Were they trying to convince you to buy their product only?
Was told the same and no they wasn't trying to sell their product. In fact they advised citric acid instead as it wouldn't harm the machine.
yeah I hard that to ,, and instead of coffee taste it taste like vinegar coffee ,, ummm ?? lol
I have the exact same machine and as of today, coffee come out one tiny bit drop at a time.. is descaling going to solve this problem that I'm having? Also my orange light didn't come on.. Thanks in advance.
Possibly, do you always run a short clean water shot through after every use? - we always keep a small glass under there anyway to capture any little drips, from what I understand this is totally normal and the read why there is a drip tray
Can i use natural sider vinegar?? And how much would I need? Thanks!
Normal white vinegar
You can use cetric acid oo
Hi,
How and where can we dispose the descaling solution?
Down the sink or?
The vinegar? Yes just down the sink, it’s organic and considers green cleaning alternative.
Like ur accent :)
Cheers
An Australian for sure
I have a latissima one machine, do I still use 500ml of white vinegar ?
i don't know how big the tank is on that latissima one, how ever much you need to use to fill half - full tank
citric acid is better
I swear, the descaling thing is BS. I bet the machine is programmed to set off the red light on a regular basis whether descaling is genuinely required or not. The next time the descaling light goes on my machine, I was going to do a test and just use fresh water, not that expensive Nespresso stuff and see what happens. I bet it can't tell the difference. But ten your vid came along.....
I suppose like most kettles and things there will be some sediment and calcification etc, like on your taps and shower heads etc.. so maybe just a reminder when the red light comes on - I believe you when you say it has a programmed counter or use etc to tell you when to clean it, when you plug these things in to enable the procedure it would probably reset the timer etc. a clean like this is simple and cheap I will never buy the Nespresso stuff again! :)
Of course, I'm saying I will never descale, just that I would do it probably every 3 months but with your vinegar method.
I used water from a water filter for two years with my machine. I never got the red light. Two months without the water filter and light came on. Just my experience.
I'd like to think that it was BS, but when the coffee and/or water began to back up out of the back of the machine, I had to agree that desaling was needed.
@@chrism3845 I think citric acid is better than vinegar and I only use vinegar to clean up the water tank.
DO NOT USE VINEGAR! PLEASE...
