OVERVIEW
OVERVIEW

Your perfect espresso machine made coffee is only one proper clean away. Over time, coffee oils, stale grounds, and tough mineral stains accumulate inside your group head and commercial components, altering your flavour profiles and slowing down water flow. This specialized Cafetto espresso cleaner offers a commercial strength solution that dissolves quickly to keep your commercial or home setup running at optimum efficiency.

Odourless Protection and Complete Rinse Performance

The core performance of this Australian made Cafetto cleaner relies on a free-rinsing formulation. When flushed through your system, it actively strips away bitter buildup without leaving behind a chemical residue or unpleasant scent. This deep cleaning action safeguards the delicate aroma and complex tasting notes of your fresh coffee beans while protecting internal valves from blockages.

Accurate Dosing: Every 500g tub comes equipped with a dedicated measuring scoop inside. This simple tool allows for precise portioning to prevent product waste and ensure your group heads receive the ideal concentration during a backflush cycle.

Comprehensive Utility: Beyond standard backflushing routines, this versatile powder works perfectly for soaking your stainless steel filter baskets, group handles, and steam tips to remove baked-on milk or dark oils.

Straightforward Maintenance and Backflushing Technique

The backflushing routine is highly effective and easy to incorporate into your daily closing schedule. Start by removing the coffee filter from your group handle and replacing it with a solid blind filter. For daily maintenance, add one level scoop of Cafetto cleaner directly into the handle and insert it into the machine. If the equipment is cleaned less frequently, use two level spoons instead.

Run the brew cycle for 10 seconds to fully dissolve the powder, then stop and let it sit for another 10 seconds. Repeat this start and stop cycle four more times to allow the formula to work through the internal lines. Remove the handle to rinse it thoroughly under a stream of fresh water from the delivery group, then turn it off.

To complete the process, reinsert the handle with the blind filter and run the cycle ten times, pumping for 5 seconds and stopping for 2 seconds to ensure a total rinse. Finally, swap back to your regular filter, brew a single espresso, and discard the shot to completely re-season your machine.

    Missinformation

    It says coffee machine cleaner yet only when you read the tiny instructions that you do not get to see on line it says it only cleans the coffee holder., NOT the machine. Rip off.

    Hi Michael,

    We appreciate your feedback and we apologise for any confusion however on the Cafetto website their is a how to guide and it does show how to clean your whole machine with the product.

    Here is the link - https://www.cafetto.com/sa/product/espresso-clean

    Please don't hesitate to contact us further if you have any further issues.

    This cleaner is really great. I have used others in our ECM machine but this one seems to be the best. Highly recommended.
