Maintenance Tips

• Clean brew funnels, sprayheads, and servers daily to prevent coffee oil buildup and maintain consistent high-volume extraction.
• Sanitize all coffee-contact parts (funnel, servers, lids) daily using food-safe sanitizer to ensure hygiene and flavor stability.
• Flush hot water through the system regularly to clear internal lines and reduce residue buildup from continuous brewing cycles.
• Descale the internal tank on a scheduled basis (more frequently in hard-water areas) to protect heating elements and maintain stable output.
• Inspect sprayhead holes frequently and clean them to ensure even water distribution across large batch sizes.
• Wipe exterior stainless steel surfaces daily with a damp cloth and mild detergent; avoid abrasives or pressure washing.
• Check water inlet line (automatic feed models) for leaks, scaling, or pressure issues that could reduce brewing capacity.
• Ensure servers are properly seated during brewing to avoid overflow or heat loss in high-throughput environments.
• Keep ventilation areas clear to prevent overheating during continuous commercial operation.
• Follow preventive maintenance checks (gaskets, seals, sprayhead alignment) to maintain reliability under heavy daily use.
