Hey coffee lover,
I'll admit, espresso machine maintenance is a decidedly unsexy topic. It's all fun and games when we're pulling delicious shots, Instagramming our bottomless portafilters, and pouring perfect latte art...
But maintenance? It sounds boring. It sounds like a chore.
Well, I'm not here to persuade you that backflushing your espresso machine is going to be a party. But I will tell you that it is incredibly quick and easy. Just five minutes of work every week or two ensures those shots stay delicious -- and social media worthy.
It also ensures your espresso machine lasts longer and spares you potentially more expensive maintenance down the line. And espresso machines aren't cheap, especially if you've opted for a prosumer model.
So, have I persuaded you to perform a regular backflush? Good. Learn how in this article...
