Milk system cleaning — hygiene, fresh taste and proper frothing
Milk residues accumulate inside tubes, cappuccinators and steam wands. Without cleaning this causes odour, poor frothing, and breakdowns. Here you’ll find professional cleaners for milk systems in automatic machines, offices and HoReCa espresso setups.
Types of products available
- Liquid cleaners — for automatic milk circuits;
- Concentrates — for external milk suction systems and hoses;
- HoReCa detergents — for professional steam-wand cleaning.
How to use?
- pour cleaner into milk container or a glass;
- run the rinse program (if machine supports it);
- if not — aspirate solution through tube, then flush with clean water.
Why clean the milk system?
- prevents odour and bacterial growth;
- restores frothing performance;
- protects milk pumps from blockage;
- keeps coffee flavour neutral.
How often?
- home: every 2–4 days if milk drinks are made;
- offices: daily or every second day depending on use;
- HoReCa: daily after closing — barista standard.
Attention
- Does not replace descaling or degreasing — separate processes;
- Use dedicated milk cleaners — not universal detergents;
- If it contacts skin/eyes — rinse thoroughly with water.
