Backflush with cleaner
Backflush with cleaner (retailer practice)
Bezzera's manual does not give this job. The method below is someone else's, named on each step. Whole Latte Love says BZ-group machines with a 3-way valve can be backflushed, with water daily and with cleaner monthly. Its article was not readable in full, so these are the usual steps, not its exact ones.
- Fit the blind filter in the portafilter.
- Add espresso-machine cleaner, the amount its pack gives.
- Lock the portafilter in.
- Switch the coffee switch on and off several times.
- Take the portafilter out and rinse the blind filter.
- Repeat with plain water until it runs clear.
