Steam wand deep clean
Soak the steam wand
Wiping keeps the outside clean. Milk still dries inside the tip.
- Mix a milk-system cleaner in warm water at the strength on its bottle. One brand gives 30 ml per 500 ml.
- Swing the wand into the jug and leave it 15 to 30 minutes.
- Rinse, then open the steam valve for a few seconds to blow it clear.
- If steam is still weak, unscrew the tip and clear its holes with a needle.
