Product Information

Original machines: push the two-cup button three times and watch for the lights to flash. No issues with this type, phew.

When you want to clean your Nespresso machine, think of caring for each part individually. Here’s how to clean each of the main parts: It's there from the moment you wake up in the morning until the last cup of coffee before you go to bed. Your Nespresso® machine takes good care of you, and so should you.

The hardness of the water in Denmark means that our coffee machines and kettles often become calcified. So remember to descale it at least every 3 months - depending on how much you use it, of course. Clean your Nespresso® coffee machine the NU way by simply inserting the Cleaning Capsule just like a coffee capsule. At the press of a button, the capsule releases a unique foaming action into the brewing chamber that gets rid of all residue build-up in just 2 minutes. The ingredient inside the cleaning capsule is made from biodegradable and organic materials, making your Nespresso® coffee machine as good as NU and your coffee taste fresher than ever. When it comes time to clean, just refill the reservoir and run the cycle after you’ve made your morning coffee. It’s automatic and hands off, so no reason to dread! Recommended usage:The general recommendation is to use one Cleaning Capsule after every 30 cups of coffee made, but at least once a month.

We made each coffee using a Nespresso machine that had performed well in our coffee machine tests, and asked our experts to taste it both with and without milk. No! You don’t need special cleaners or chemicals when cleaning your Nespresso Vertuo; plain old soap and water will do just fine! However, if you do want to use special cleaning products made specifically for espresso machines, make sure they are non-abrasive so as not to damage any internal components of your device. Also note that some detergents contain chlorine which could leave behind an unpleasant taste in your coffee – so only use these products if necessary! Next you’ll want to start by removing the drip tray from beneath your machine and emptying any residual water into the sink. Then, wash and rinse it with warm water and a mild detergent. Let it air dry before returning it to the machine. Make sure to empty and clean the drip tray after each use. Jump to Recipe Descaling CycleAvoid letting water sit in the tank too long– I find it tastes worse (maybe the minerality changes over time). You do not have to worry about losing the warranty on your machine through using compatible pods for Nespresso®. We rarely hear of machines breaking down because of compatible pods - even when we sell more than 100,000 compatible pods a week.

By descaling your machine you extend the life of the machine. You also ensure the coffee is always made to the correct temperature and volume in your cup. In addition, you also ensure a better water flow in the machine, reduce machine noise and prevent malfunctions. Most) Nespresso Vertuo have an automatic descaling system that will alert you when they need attention—the orange indicator light comes on when this happens. The descaling cycle can be activated in just a few steps: first, fill up the water tank with fresh tap water (though filtered or bottled water is recommended – not soapy water). Next, open the capsule container lid at the top of your machine and press the button for “descale” until you hear a beep; at this point, close the lid and press start. Once finished, discard any remaining water in the container and run two more cycles without adding any additional ingredients or capsules—this will ensure that all residue is removed from inside your machine.In addition, your Nespresso® machine brews so much coffee that it can often cause dirt and bacteria to build up in the system. Not only is this unhygienic, it also affects the taste of your coffee.

To help you find the best coffee for your Nespresso machine – and save money on your morning brew – we've put Nespresso-compatible coffee pods to the test, asking a panel of independent coffee experts to blind-test them and rate how tasty they are. Descaling a Nespresso machine is a deep cleaning of the inside of the machine. Water has minerals that pass through your coffee machine, which build up over time. If you let the limescale build up over a long time period, it can prevent the machine from reaching the optimal temperature, and your device can stop working altogether. Moreover, you can have stale or sour coffee. See how the different coffee pod brands compare on recycling, price and range of coffees in our guide to Reusable, recyclable and compostable coffee pods.

Regular cleaning of a Nespresso machine will ensure you have the best-tasting coffee. Moreover, you’ll extend the life of your Nespresso coffee machine. How Should You Clean Your Nespresso Machine? Improved Coffee Flavour:Enhances the flavour and aroma of your coffee by cleaning the brewing chamber. The Breville cleaning system is just a bit different. There’s no colored indicator light, and there’s no button inside the top of the machine. Instead, start by by filling the water reservoir with clean water. Then place a 20oz container under the spout. Close the capsule container lid at the top of the machine and press the button 3 times within 2 seconds to initiate the cleaning cycle. Keep your container in place for up to 5 minutes as water runs through the system. Once finished, discard any remaining water in the container and run two more cycles without adding additional ingredients or capsules. Do You Need Special Cleaning Products? The red and green light mean it’s time to descale the Nespresso machine. Plan to descale every three months or 300 capsules for the best results. The coffees inside the pods come from many different parts of the world and have their very own unique taste. The unique taste of every coffee begins to form from the moment the coffee bean ripens inside the coffee berry.
