Hi everyone,
I hope I have posted this question in the correct place. I have only recently started using a coffee machine for the first time.
I recently picked up the Breville BES860 for $50. Unfortunately it didn't come with a cleaning disc and the cleaning light has just turned on.
I have a few questions about cleaning the machine:
1. Do I need to buy a rubber cleaning disc or just a blind back flush filter?
2. Are there any advantages with buying the rubber cleaning disc over the blind back flush filter?
3. What is the cheapest way to clean the machine? (I've seen the Cafetto S15 Cleaning tablets for $20 for a 60 pack on eBay) Is there a cheaper/better alternative?
4. What else should I be cleaning regularly on the machine? (I clean the filters, steam wand, portafilter, water catchment, grinder regularly)
5. Have I forgotten anything else about cleaning this machine?
Thank you in advance,
Cameron
