A clean machine pulls better shots—every time. This free, step-by-step guide walks you through a quick daily maintenance routine to keep your espresso machine in top shape. Perfect for home baristas and coffee shop teams, the Light Clean covers essential daily tasks: rinsing group heads, backflushing with and without an auto-clean cycle, and properly cleaning steam wands using products like Cafiza, Rinza, and a blind basket.
With simple instructions and minimal tools, this routine takes just 5–10 minutes and helps prevent buildup that can affect flavor and machine performance. Download, print, and post near your bar for easy reference.
For home baristas: If you're only pulling 1-2 shots a day, you may not need this thorough of a clean daily. Save your cleaning products for 1-2x per week.
