In this video we walk you step by step how to clean and descale the barista express machine. This should be done when your “clean/descale” light turns on, which is about every 3 months. Hard water causes mineral build up which then affects the brewing flow, temperature, taste of espresso, and power of the machine. This is why it’s important to descale your machine. Hope this video helps!

I think at the end of the whole process of cleaning/descsle cycles, it was worthwhile to do one more descale cycle but with the fresh filtered water back in the tank. That flushed out any last remaining tablet or descale residue before my next cup of coffee!

Thank you this video helped me out greatly! As it’s my first time cleaning my machine. I cleaned the grinder as well and the cloth washer ripped. Has this happened to you before?

Great job, only thing I would do is descale first and then back flush 👍

I don’t know why. But when I do that the water comes out the portafilter. I use the single basket and the cleaning disc but the water comes out. 🤷🏻‍♂️ The water don’t pass through the valve.

For whatever reason, the 2 lights on my unit under the program button did not light up when i selected off and 2 cup for descaling. It seems like it went thru the process as yours did…??

Why do you fill full tank for descaling instead of only 1 litre as breville recommends

I've just done my first cleaning with the tablet (after around 2 months of use) and noticed that the pressure does not max out. Any ideas why? Please note that I've newer model, so there should be no water coming out and the pressure should be maximum (I assume?).

Why the descale light still on when I finish the tablet cycle?

If the light is solid you descale. If the light is blinking you backflush with tablet. You might have done the wrong cleaning that's why.

Once you've put the descaling solution with water and go thru process and once that's finished. You should apply Only clean water and do the same process with Only clean water. That's what I was told so you get out all that descaling solution out of your machine Yummm????

Yes. Once the descaling process is finished, you want to run clean water through all sources (wand and portafilter) before making coffee. Same goes for the cleaning process as well.

Yea you need to run a full tank of clean water and repeat the process of group head, wand, water spout until the tank is depleted.
