Make sure you DONT follow the instructions on the cleaning powder- that is for commercial machines. I put a little spoon full in the blind filer- add some water and then connect it up. turn on and off immediately! Dont wait the full 5 seconds. >
You should notice the bubbles coming through the release valve at the rear of the tray.. Now leave it for 10 minutes or so to do its work on the inside. :
Repeat a few times- but always only a second or two otherwise- apparently - it can put too much pressure on the pump which isnt designed for that sort of work out.
Flush with fresh water. Chuck out the first espresso. Then youre done!
