Know before you buy
We recommend using one sachet for a backflushing cycle every few weeks, or whenever your machine indicates it is time for a cleaning cycle. Regular use prevents the buildup of coffee oils that can negatively impact the flavor of your espresso.
While this formula is specifically designed for Breville espresso machines, it is a standard cleaning powder suitable for any machine that requires backflushing. Always check your machine's manual to ensure the backflushing process is supported.
No, the formula is completely odourless and residue-free. It is designed to dissolve fully during the cleaning process, ensuring your next shot of espresso tastes exactly as it should.
Single-dose sachets ensure you use the exact amount required for a proper cleaning cycle, eliminating the guesswork and mess associated with measuring bulk powder. It also keeps the powder fresh and protected from moisture until you are ready to use it.
Yes, the box and the sachets are designed with sustainability in mind. Please check your local recycling guidelines to ensure proper disposal of the materials.
