Coffee Appreciation

I bought some Gaggia descaler from here: http://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/on/demandware.store/Sites-hof-Site/default/Link-Product?pid=630547622&cgid=00030

It's still free delivery so it's cheaper than most places.

You basically dissolve the powder (tartaric acid) and then run it through the machine, leave it for twenty minutes and then run it through again. Be warned though - I had to completely change the way I made coffee since the flow was a lot faster than I was used to so had to tamp the coffee a lot harder.

And never ever use vinegar (whatvever anyone sez).
It rots the rubber seals in your machine!

Good to know that HoF do the Gaggia descaler, ta very much for the link.
