What is the difference between cleaning and descaling?

Cleaning and descaling serve different purposes and are both essential for DeLonghi® machine maintenance.

Descaling removes limescale and rust caused by hard water from internal parts like the boiler, thermoblock, and pipes. Cleaning, on the other hand, eliminates coffee oils, dirt, and residue that affect taste and hygiene.

Use the Caffenu® Eco Power Descaler for descaling and Caffenu® cleaning tablets for regular cleaning to maintain great-tasting coffee and extend your machine’s lifespan.
