Thanks very much Aju. I watch your video every time I need to descale/clean. Your teaching style is very detailed, easy to understand and your video angle is excellent because at no time do you block what you're doing! I learn so much from all your videos. You're brilliant!

The cleaning you suggested, finally did the trick. Solid clean light is off! Pressure goes in the espresso range although not to middle of the range, but I will fiddle with grind amount and size. Thank you so much. Was discouraged by 2 prior cleaning and 2 descaling procedures with no effect. Glad you replied to me, otherwise I would have given the machine up for dead. Now I will descale regularly along with cleanings. My machine was an earlier one and did not have “descale” sign below the “clean me”, so I didn’t realize I needed to descale.

So glad to hear that. Thank you for your reply. The first generation machine has only Clean Me written. And Descale must be done manually.

Hi..Great demonstration on how to descale the Breville Express. Thank you. One thing I noticed was the water filter instructions state to soak the filter for 5 minutes and rinse with fresh water for 30 seconds, before placing it back. Cheers I throughly enjoyed watching your demo.

Hello AJU cafe, it was really nice video explaining de-scaling and also difference between de-scaling and Clean in another video. I do have few questions. 1. Can we do cleaning and de-scaling at same time ? 2. On what basis this 2 steps needs to be done ? When signal is on or indication light for each of the steps ( both clean and de-scaling ) or on a regular basis both cycles needs to be done ? Thanks.
@AjusCafe 3 жыл бұрын
1. You can Clean and Descale one after another in one go. Descale is done using Descale powder and Clean is done using backflush and cleaning tablet. Don't mix them. I'm doing a video on this soon to show the different cleaning products. 2. You can do clean cycle once a month and descaling once in 3 months. If if u are using the machine a lot then reduce the frequency. You don't have to wait till it indicates

@@verdysir Ye the Descale procedure is the same. In your case, 1. the CLEAN light would be solid ON, when it's time to DESCALE 2. the CLEAN light would be BLINKING, when it's time to CLEAN backwash Hope this helps. But there is nothing wrong to DESCALE and CLEAN whenever you feel like. i.e. even if the CLEAN light is OFF.

Can also be a labeling error wether its BES870 or BES875 regarding the waterfilter and descale script?!

First make sure you machine says Decale/Clean below the white light. Some machine has only "Clean" written on it. That means you need to run manual Descale. If you have both Descale and Clean written and still you are not able to get into Descale mode, then make sure you plug off the cable and plug in again. Make sure your machine is OFF when you enter descale mode. Press double cup button fraction of second before power button. May be your sync is slow.

This espressos machine makes great coffee, but finding parts to replace is almost impossible, the biggest down side, if your machine solenoid fails there is no where to be find, even Breville itself will not sell you one, so you lose $600. I got the Breville 870XL, and is useless I can't find the part for it, and this machines are common to fail in about 2 years of service. I would NOT recommend this espresso machine to anyone
