Think Crucial Descaler for Breville Espresso Machines, 16 fl oz, 1 Pack

Breville machines prompt for descaling on a schedule, and the branded solution is sold in single-use sachets. This is a bottle that covers roughly four years of quarterly descaling instead. A super-concentrated liquid using food-grade citric and lactic acid in purified water. It mixes instantly — no powder to dissolve, no sachet to tear — so you measure 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) into the tank and run the machine's own descale cycle. 16 uses per 16 fl oz bottle. Features: Fits the Breville espresso range – Barista Express, Barista Express Impress, Barista Pro, Barista Touch, Barista Touch Impress, Bambino, Bambino Plus, Oracle, Oracle Touch, Oracle Jet, Dual Boiler, Infuser and Duo-Temp Pro. Also works with Breville kettles and tea makers. 16 uses per bottle – One 16 fl oz bottle covers up to 16 full descaling cycles at the recommended dose — around four years at quarterly descaling. Super concentrate, no dissolving – A highly concentrated liquid that mixes instantly with water. No powders, tablets or pre-dissolving steps. Removes limescale and mineral buildup – Dissolves the calcium deposits that restrict water flow and pull your brew temperature off target. Food-grade acid blend – A proprietary blend of citric and lactic acid in purified water. Made in the USA. How to use: Measure 1–2 Tbsp (15–30 ml) into the empty water tank, then fill it with water to MAX. Run your machine's descale cycle per its instructions. Rinse the tank and run two full water-only cycles. Descale quarterly, or when your machine prompts. Questions How much descaler do I use? 1 to 2 tablespoons (15 to 30 ml) in the empty water tank, then fill it with water to MAX. The descale light is still on after the cycle. What now? On some models the reminder clears only after you confirm it in the menu, so check your manual for the reset step. If shots are still slow or the steam wand is weak, run a second full descale and the two rinses again. Does it work in the Barista Express Impress and the Bambino? Yes. It's for the Barista Express, Barista Express Impress, Barista Pro, Barista Touch, Barista Touch Impress, Bambino, Bambino Plus, Oracle, Oracle Touch, Oracle Jet, Dual Boiler, Infuser and Duo-Temp Pro. Can I use Breville's cleaning tablets instead? No, they do a different job. Breville's cleaning tablets strip coffee oil from the group head and don't remove scale. This is a citric and lactic acid descaler, a liquid replacement for Breville's single-use descaling sachets.
