Default Choose ESE machine!

It seems to me there is a lot of info in internet about cleaning espresso machines, both their interior and exterior. \r\n\r\nAs for me, I prefer ESE (Easy Serving Espresso) systems, because they are very easy both in serving coffee and in keeping them clean. \r\nand I've never had any problems with cleaning so far...

\r\n\r\nYou are right, ESE is the best kind of espresso machine if you are concerned about cleaning. \r\n\r\nAlso I know some tips how to clean a machine. \r\n\r\nIf the exterior needs cleaning, just use some good cleaner. Note though that some cleaners, like Fantastik might actually remove some of the stamped on text and logos if they are painted on.\r\n\r\nIf the interior needs cleaning, you need to decalcify it. Add about 3 oz. of vinegar to about 20 oz. of water, and let it run through the machine. Then run about 3-4 times the amount of fresh water.
