How do I descale my Zinzino E`Oh espresso machine?


To descale your E`Oh machine:

  1. Start by removing the scale filter from the tank, and then add at least 0.5 litres of fresh tap water to the tank.
  2. C Add the de-scaling solution to the tank (1 full bottle). Make sure no liquid is spilled outside of the tank (add a protective surface under and around the machine if necessary, de-scaling solution is corrosive and could damage any surfaces it comes into contact with).
  3. Replace the coffee pod with the plastic pod (supplied with the machine) and close the coffee unit using the machine handle.
  4. Press the two coffee buttons for at least 5 seconds.
  5. Release the buttons when the central machine indicator (orange light) flashes slowly.
    • The machine is now in De-scaling mode, the orange light will flash throughout the procedure.
  6.  Place a large container under the machine's coffee spout to catch the used de-scaling solution. 
  7. Press one of the Coffee buttons.
  8. The de-scaling cycle will start: the machine will activate the pump for 80 seconds, and then stop. Empty your tank, and rinse with fresh water. Then empty your container of used de-scaling solution, if necessary.

    • The following rinsing operations must be repeated a total of three times. Under no circumstances may the machine's water tank be empty during these three rinsing phases, as this could damage the pump.
  9. Pour 0.5 litres of cold water into the tank.
  10. Press one of the Coffee buttons. 
  11. The machine will run the pump for 80 seconds, and then stop the pump automatically.  
  12. Top up the water level in the tank. Empty your container of used de-scaling solution, if necessary.
  13. Repeat phases 10 to 12 again (twice). 
  14. The orange light will start at the end of the de-scaling cycle. Dispose of the tank water, and then fill with fresh water.
  15. Open the coffee unit and eject the de-scaling pod. Collect the pod from the Used Pod Basket (empty any liquid in the pod if necessary). 
  16. De-scaling is complete, the machine is ready for use again.
