3- Saeco
portafilters (pressurized or Gran Crema)
should not be opened from the bottom screws to
clean. Use blue liquid to flush the coffee &
oil deposits by flushing the valves inside with
blue liquid. To flush the filter cup & inside
of the cup holder, place 2 teaspoonfuls
of liquid cleaner in the filter cup, hook it
up in the group head and make one large espresso
without coffee. Hot water will flush
the cleaning liquid through the basket filter
and remove oils and sediments instantly. For
stubborn deposits in the holes of filter cup, soak
the filter cup for an hour or two and make an
espresso without coffee to flush the holes
clean.
