Equipment, espresso coffee machines and grinders are essential for good coffee but it is very important to carry out regular maintenance if excellent results are required every day.

• Clean filter-holders, filters, diffusers, gaskets, cup warmer, drain tray; pass the blank filter several times a day
• Check the size of grind
• Check that the water pressure in the heater corresponds to about 9 atmospheres

• Check the hardness of the water coming from the group
• Clean carefully the batcher (use a brush) and the hopper (with a dry cloth) of the grinder to remove coffee residues

• Check the wear of the grinding blades; it is important that flat grinding blades are replaced every 400 kg and conical blades every 600-800 kg of coffee
• Wash the units and the blank filter with appropriate detergent
