Espresso Connection Recommends:

• Reduce Wear: In order to reduce wear & tear on your La Marzocco it is best to leave your machine on at all times if used on a daily basis. Less energy is required when the machine is left on and less fatigue on the copper tubes, pipes, brass etc.
• Water Filtration: Filtered tap or bottled water alone is not enough. We need softened water in our espresso machines or a mix 2-3 parts distilled water to one part filtered water. This will improve the life span of the machine and improve the coffee flavor. Our target is number 150ppm of Total Dissolved Solids (TDS).
• Care for your La Marzocco: Clean the grouphead(s) daily with a brush and damp towel. Backflush daily. Clean the steam wand(s) after every use; purge before and after every use. Clean, disassemble and soak portafilter(s) and baskets at lease once a week in Puly Caf detergent.
