Gaggia machines have 2 different cleaning programmes: One for cleaning and one for descaling. During the descaling programme the system is cleaned of all internal lime scale. Frequently used appliances that come in contact with water develop lime scale. Although lime scale is not detrimental to your health, it does shorten the durability of water heating machines. That is why it is necessary to regularly descale these machines. Lime scale forms when water is heated or boiled. Lime scale particularly forms during the heating of ‘hard water’ which contains a lot of calcium and magnesium ions. The small pieces of lime scale that form end up in your tea or coffee. Gaggia coffee / espresso machines will display a message when it is time to descale the machine. The lime scale is safely and reliably removed by this descaler.
