This product works really well and has kept my Capresso Coffee maker/grinder working efficiently. I highly recommend it. It's also hard to find in stores and much easier to buy on Amazon.
I guess I could just use vinegar, but this is what Capresso recommends for decalcifying my machine. SInce the machine is 6 years old, I'm not goimg to mess with success. Pricey.but it works.
I purchased this for descaling a Bosch Tassimo coffee-maker. First time, it didn't solve the descaling problem and the red light stayed on (the red light should go off before you do the rinse sequence). Followed the instructions and diluted one cup of descaler with one cup of water. Ran through the descaling process (don't use more than 2 cups total mix - the Tassimo won't take any more than that). Ran the descaling process a second time and it worked just fine. So it took the whole bottle this time, but it did the job.
Our office has a hot water boiler which boils about 6 gallons of water per day for drinking. One use of this following all the instructions and the water boiler was ready for use again - everything looked as shiny and new as the day we first purchased it. After about 7 months of use and no real upkeep, the inside of the water boiler was crusted over with calcification and was shelved since bits of the calcification were dropping off into the water. Another office mate tried to clean the inside with another cleaner and it barely scratched the surface. We now maintain the boiler with regular vinegar rinses, but will probably do this once a year to really get everything shiny again. As an added bonus, as we were rinsing into the sink, the sink and tools we were using polished up nicely as well.
Just enough liquid in bottle for two (2) cleanings of your coffee maker. Does a good job in decalifying but it is expensive.
