....well I was sure. I was assuming it's pretty much the same as Urnex but without the descaler. Basically everything post boiler get coffee oils working their way back so I run the Urnex through monthly (or to be honest more like bi-monthly or quarterly
) and I find that it's the best and easiest way of cleaning the machine.
The process is:
Fill the boiler
Add the satchel of Urnex
Heat it up
Pull 100 ml through the steam wand
Pull 100 ml through the group head
Let it cool down for half an hour
Heat it up again
Pull 100 ml through the steam wand
Pull 3/4 of the remaining cleaner through the group head
Release pressure
Fill boiler thus diluting remaining cleaner with water
Heat it up again
Pull 100 ml through the steam wand
Pull all of the remaining cleaner through the group head
Completely flush boiler
Fill with water
Heat it up again
Pull 50 ml of water through the steam wand
Pull full boiler of water through the group head
Release pressure
And repeat those last six steps until I can no longer smell or taste the cleaner in the water, normally four complete flushes.
That's the process taken from the instructions on the Urnex and slightly modified after web searching what others do. So would it be a bad idea to do the same with Puly?
