- Clean Machine Triple Action Formula lifts, dissolves & removes dirt and scale build-up in your coffee machine.
- Suitable for all brands including Jura, Saeco, DeLonghi, Miele, Krups, Sunbeam, Breville, Gaggia, KitchenAid, Franke & others
- Usage: Use 50 ml of Triple Action Formula to descale your machine. 50 ml is a suitable replacement amount for all brands of machines. If you descale irregularly or you have obvious scale problems, use 100 ml or repeat the descale process 2 times.
Signs of Scale Include Low water temperature, poor steam performance, poor water flow, and a machine that is slow to come to operation temperature. No matter what machine you own, regular cleaning and descaling will increase its life, prevent costly breakdowns, and help you make great coffee.
Instructions (for Automatic coffee machines):
- 50ml of this product is recommended for one descale cycle and is a suitable replacement for other brands of liquids, powders or descale tablets.
- Refer to your machine’s manual for the correct descaling instructions.
Instructions (for Traditional coffee machines):
- Empty your machine’s water reservoir, and pour in 1 litre of water mixed with 50 ml of Triple Action Formula. Place an empty vessel underneath the coffee outlet to capture waste (attach the group handle to the machine where applicable).
- Turn the machine on and begin the brew cycle. Turn the cycle on and off 3 - 4 times during this process, allowing the solution to sit for 10 -15 seconds each time. If you have a steam wand or milk-frothing device, allow the solution to run through it for approximately 30 seconds. Discard the solution once it has run through the machine. Triple Action Formula is 100% organic and biodegradable.
- Repeat steps 1 & 2 twice with fresh water.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
- How often should I descale my machine?
Ideally every 4 weeks. This can vary according to machine usage & water quality. Scale can develop quickly in your machine reducing its ability to heat & maintain ideal coffee making & steaming temperature. - I have never descaled my machine before, how much should I use?
If your machine has not been descaled before OR is cleaned less often than advised, increase the concentration by up to 3 times or repeat the cleaning process up to 3 times. - My milk steam arm is not working very well, it may be blocked, how should I clean it?
Follow the 3 steps for cleaning. During this process, try opening and closing your steam arm several times giving the solution time to work. Alternatively, use Clean Machine’s Milk Steamer Solution for dedicated milk cleaning. - Can I use citric acid or vinegar to descale with?
Citric acid only does part of the job. It will only lift a small percentage of scale and has no cleaning action. Citric acid does not dissolve scale. It will lift it into flakes which can cause blockages in your machine making it costly to repair. Vinegar does minimal descaling, no cleaning and can cause corrosion and deterioration of internal components and seals inside your machine. Triple Action Formula is safe on all metal, plastic and rubber surfaces, and is a highly effective descaler and cleaner. - What type of water should I use in my machine?
Virtually every manufacturer recommends using filtered water. Tap water has too many chemicals added that will taint the flavour of even the best coffee beans. Whilst bottled water is an improvement, many have a high mineral content which may increase scale build-up, and it is expensive. A water filter fitted under your kitchen sink will remove bad-tasting chemicals and odours and will give you an endless supply of great-tasting water for drinking, cooking, ice cubes and making excellent coffee. If you would like a suitable water filter for home or work, simply call the 1300#, mention you are a ‘Triple Action’ customer and we will offer a special price on a suitable system.
