Hi people, I have a Rancilio silvia which I have been using for some years now and have just cleaned it which I do every few months even though I use quite a lot, I have just used the Coffee a Roma Expresso cleaner and now the milk or the water that comes out of the steamer has a foul taste??
I followed the instructions to the letter and gave it a good rinse after, put about 5 litres of filtered water through it, now when I use it to steam the milk it has a terrible taste, should I descale it or just use the cleaner again? I did take the strainer off with the brass disc which was pretty black and cleaned it with hot soapy water.
Before you ask the water filter is fine, no problems there as the water tastes great.
Any ideas that could stop this foul taste?
