2. Easy to clean

A clean Nespresso machine is an essential component of enjoying the finest cup of coffee that you can. A build-up could cause a drastic impact on the quality and flow of your coffee.

The cleaners can be dissolved in water and then run through the machine before undergoing a cleaning process. The tank and other components of the machine can be rinsed off using fresh water. After the water tank has become empty, a descaler can be added as directed by your machine's manual.

If you own an individual milk container or steam wand, make sure to empty them and wipe them down after every use. You should also run a clean-up cycle at least twice a week to ensure your machine is running efficiently and avoid the buildup of scale. Your machine will notify that you haven't completed an effective cleaning cycle. You don't have to run the cycle immediately when you see the warning, but you should do so within a short period of time.
