If you own a Lavazza coffee machine, you know how important it is to keep it clean and well maintained. Over time, scale can build up in the machine, affecting the taste and quality of your coffee. If you notice that your coffee tastes strange or the machine is not working as efficiently as it used to, it may be time to reset the scale.
Resetting the scale on your Lavazza coffee machine is a simple process that can be done in a few easy steps. First, make sure the machine is turned off and unplugged from the power source. Then, remove the water tank and empty any remaining water. Next, fill the tank with clean water and add a descaling solution according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Once the tank is filled, reattach it to the machine.
After you have reattached the water tank, turn on the machine and let it run through a brewing cycle.

Once the brewing cycle is complete, empty the water tank and rinse it thoroughly with clean water. Finally, refill the tank with fresh water and start a new brewing cycle without any coffee pods. This will help flush out any remaining descaling solution and ensure that your coffee machine is clean and ready to use.
