Asachimici Group – Professional cleaning for espresso machines

Italian manufacturer specializing in detergents for coffee equipment. The technical range includes Puly Caff, Puly Milk and Puly Grind – targeted solutions for groupheads, milk circuits and grinders used in HoReCa, offices and home setups.

Why proper cleaning is essential

• Better espresso flavour – rancid oils stuck in the group can ruin the taste of a shot.
• Longer equipment lifespan – deposits of coffee and milk damage valves, gaskets and internal parts.
• Hygiene & safety – milk circuits accumulate bacteria without regular cleaning.
• Lower maintenance costs – clean machines break less often.
