The sold package contains four servings of Cafetto Renew descaling powder: 100 grams in total.

Cafetto describes one sachet dissolved in 1 liter of warm water for the suitable espresso machine.

Renew uses organic acids to remove limescale deposits from water; it is not a coffee degreaser.

You are not allowed to chemically descale every machine yourself. The instructions of the machine manufacturer always take precedence.

Recognizable when your machine needs maintenance

You see limescale at the water outlet or in your water tank and wonder what you can safely do. Especially with more expensive espresso machines, you don't want to just run any product through the system.

  • Limescale buildup around your water tank

    You see white edges where water has dried. But you can't tell for sure if there is also limescale inside the machine.

  • Unsure about your machine type

    Some espresso machine manuals include a descaling program; for other models, however, the manufacturer warns against descaling it yourself.

  • Which cleaner is for what?

    You have seen products for limescale, coffee oil, and milk fat. The packages look alike, even though they clean differently.

First the machine, then the descaler

Check the maintenance instructions for your espresso machine. If the manufacturer recommends a suitable chemical descaler, Cafetto Renew may be an option if that type of product is also permitted.

According to Cafetto's instructions for use, mix 25 grams of Renew with 1 liter of warm water. How you run the solution through the machine and rinse it depends on the machine. If there are any differences, always follow the machine's manual.

For which home barista?

For those who have a machine that, according to the manufacturer, can be cleaned with this type of descaling powder and are looking for a practical single-use package. Not intended for experimenting without instructions.

What exactly are you buying?

This individual sales unit contains four 25-gram sachets of Cafetto Renew, for a total of 100 grams of descaling powder. The price on the linked product page is currently €9.95.

Also view the current packaging and ordering option at Barista Essentials. Cafetto also offers a factory pack of six sachets; this is the separate four-pack offer.

Lime, coffee oil and milk fat are other jobs

Limescale is caused by minerals in the water. For this, use a suitable descaler such as Renew, but only if your machine allows it.

For old coffee residue in a suitable grinder, you can look at Cafetto Grinder Clean. Milk residue in the steam wand requires a different method, for example with Cafetto MFC Powder Eco if your machine allows it.

Don't pick a cleaning product by guesswork: the right job and machine determine the choice.

Frequently Asked Questions about Cafetto Renew

Can I descale my Sage, ECM or Quick Mill with this?

You cannot determine that based on the brand alone. Materials and maintenance instructions vary by model. Check the manual to see whether the manufacturer permits chemical descaling and which products should be used. If in doubt, have the appliance maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

How often should I descale my espresso machine?

This depends on several factors, including water hardness, the water filter, machine usage, and the manufacturer's instructions. Four sachets do not automatically mean four descaling cycles per year. Follow the prescribed maintenance schedule.

Does the water filter need to be removed from the reservoir?

We're here to help you get the most out of your water sports adventures. Below, you'll find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions.

My water tank is smaller than one liter. What now?

Cafetto recommends 25 grams of powder per liter of warm water as the standard ratio. Do not determine a different machine procedure or extra concentrated solution yourself. Check what quantity and what descaling agent your manufacturer prescribes for your specific model.

Why do I also see Cafetto Renew with six sachets?

The official Cafetto product information states, among other things, a box of six 25-gram sachets. The selling unit linked here at Barista Essentials contains four 25-gram sachets according to the seller. Check the current packaging before ordering.
