Cleaning Tablets

Are cleaning tablets the same as descaling tablets?

Cleaning tablets for coffee machines are similar to descaling solutions in that they both help to remove mineral buildup and other contaminants from the internal components of the machine. However, there is a difference between cleaning and descaling tablets.

Cleaning tablets are designed to remove surface-level buildup, such as coffee residue and oils, from the brewing components of the machine. They are typically used on a regular basis, such as once a month, to keep the machine clean and functioning properly.

Descaling, on the other hand, is a deeper cleaning process that is typically used less frequently, such as every three to six months, to remove mineral buildup from the internal components of the machine. Descaling solutions are typically more acidic than cleaning tablets and are specifically designed to dissolve mineral buildup caused by hard water. They work by breaking down and dissolving the calcium and magnesium deposits that accumulate on the heating element and other internal parts of the machine.

How do you use cleaning tablets for your coffeemachine?

The exact process for using cleaning tablets for your coffee machine can vary depending on the specific brand and model of your machine.
