Descaling products are designed to efficiently and safely descale espresso machines and other coffee brewing equipment. The descaling process (also known as decalcifying and de-kalking) removes hard water scale from the boiler or thermoblock, and the group head or coffee brewer.

‘Hard water’ occurs when water contains high levels of dissolved minerals including both calcium and magnesium. Water hardness cannot be removed by water filters including re-mineralised reversed osmosis water. Interestingly, espresso made from hard water tastes better as the coffee extraction flavour intensifies with harder water.

Espresso machine cleaners are alkaline, therefore while they are effective removing the build-up of coffee oils and residues, they will have little impact on scale removal. The correct use of a descaler will remove the scale from the boiler and machine pipe work, improving machine performance and reducing service costs and downtime.

NÜOVO Quintuple contain buffer agent that adjust PH based in required process to start with lower PH acidic medium to descale all related boiler and machine pipe work then start to increase it to be alkaline medium at near of coffee brewing chamber & steam wand

After each milk steaming 
Open the steam valve for a few seconds to blow out any milk left in the nozzle. Wipe the wand clean with a damp cloth to prevent any crusty milk build-up.

Daily Cleaning
Soak the steam wand nozzles in hot water, rinse and wipe clean. If you have a milk frother, clean with a NÜOVO Quintuple Milk Frother Cleaner, follow the instructions on the label.

Weekly Cleaning
Clear the steam wand holes with a steam wand brush, soak in hot water and wipe clean. If you have a milk frother use a Milk Frother Cleaner, following the instructions on the label.
