It's De'Longhi's own limescale remover for its coffee machines. Running it through the machine on a regular schedule keeps the water circuit clear, so your coffee comes out hot, the flow stays steady and the steam wand keeps its strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCoffee machine running slow or lukewarm? Time to descale\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery tank of water leaves a little mineral behind, and in hard water areas it builds up fast inside the heater, pipes and valves. That scale insulates the heating element and narrows the water paths. The signs are coffee that isn't as hot as it used to be, a slow trickle instead of a steady pour, weak steam, and a pump that sounds like it's straining. Many De'Longhi machines also light a descale warning. Left too long, heavy scale can block parts completely and turn a cheap maintenance job into a repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine De'Longhi part number AS00006178\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEcoDecalk descaler and limescale remover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e500ml bottle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade for De'Longhi coffee machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e500ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUsing EcoDecalk\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow the descaling steps in your machine's manual together with the directions on the bottle, because the mix and process vary between models. Take out the water filter first if your machine has one. Run the full descaling program, then rinse the system thoroughly with fresh water so no descaler is left behind.

Many De'Longhi machines show a descale alert when it's due. Go by that alert, or the schedule in your manual, rather than waiting until the flow slows down.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De'Longhi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44547557032014,"sku":"AS00006178","price":43.74,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/as00006178-genuine-delonghi-ecodecalk-descaler-500ml","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
