Cafetto Espresso Clean

This powder is specifically formulated to remove coffee oils, grounds, and stains that build up inside your espresso machine's group head, valves, and lines. Regular use prevents these residues from turning rancid, which is essential for maintaining the clarity and flavor profile of your espresso.

Cafetto Espresso Clean is designed for standard espresso equipment, but you should always check your machine manufacturer's manual first. While it is highly effective for backflushing commercial and prosumer machines, it is not intended for use on aluminum components or certain specialized domestic machines.

For a home setup, a backflush with Espresso Clean once a week is generally sufficient if you make coffee daily. If you are using your machine more frequently or in a high-volume environment, you may need to increase the frequency to ensure the group head remains free of oil buildup.

Yes, because you only need a small amount—typically about half a teaspoon—per cleaning cycle. A 100g tub will last the average home barista several months, depending on how often you perform your maintenance routine.

Absolutely. You can create a soaking solution by dissolving a small amount of the powder in hot water and letting your portafilter baskets and shower screens soak for 15 to 30 minutes. This is an excellent way to break down stubborn, hardened coffee oils that rinsing alone cannot remove.
