Maintaining the machine - backflushing - coffeecrew.com - victoria, b.c. canada (#)

„The water coming out of the group should be absolutely clear and there should not be any visible coffee grounds in the flush water. Backflushing methods: You can use either a special backflush filterbasket (a filterbasket with no holes) or a rubber backflush disk that you insert in your double filterbasket to stop the flow ofwater. In this article, we will use the rubber backflush disk as it is more “forgiving”. Plus, if you want to clean your group between multiple shots, you can just plop it in your filterbasket and do the “portafilter jiggle” without doing the hot potato routine with a very hot basket.“

Home Espresso FAQ (#)

„I remove the double shot filter basket and replace it with a “blind insert.” I fill the blind insert with 2 teaspoons of PuroCaff (TSP and some buffering agents) and run through a backflush cycle that takes about five minutes. ** This backflushing can only be performed on a unit that is equipped with a “triple action bypass” valve! ** Don’t try it on a conventional unit.     I dab a clean dishtowel in the diluted backflushing liquid that has filled the drip tray and I carefully wipe down the outside of the machine, trying to get into all of the nooks and crannies between the switches and in the joints between pieces of the housing.“

CoffeeGeek - Articles: How-To Article Feedback, How to Clean a Dirty Grouphead (#)

„  Machines with electric 3 way solenoid's should only be backflushed with a blind filter basket, about  every 200 shots, but then only after cleaning the dispersion screen and gasket first.  Backflushing is hard on electric 3 way valves, that’s why it shouldn’t be done more frequently.  Machines like the Silvia should  be backflushed only a couple times per year.  Always use a good espresso machine cleaner when you use the blind basket to remove the oils and residue that accumulate in the lines and valve.“

„The Classic features the 3-way solenoid valve which leaves behind a dry espresso puck after each use, a nice feature for cleanup. That also means you can backflush the machine for cleaning (see note by valve picture about safety), and that excess pressure will be automatically released after each espresso. It has a larger 72 ounce water reservoir. which means less trips for refilling.“

„Every month: Full backflush, dispersion screen and plate cleaning, full grouphead cleaning. Follow the backflush procedure above, then unscrew the dispersion screen, remove the nut, screen, and the plate - be careful, the plate is heavy and extremely hot. Soak all three items and your portafilter (stand it up so the handle is not in the liquid) in a bowl full of boiling water and about a tablespoon of Urnex Cafiza for about 30 minutes.“

The Espresso Pages from Sweet Maria's: Espresso, a Definition and General (#)

„These machines usually come with a Null Filter - a portafilter that snaps into the coffee handle with no holes in it. That means you can put a little coffee cleaner (Cafiza ) into it, put it into the brew head, turn on the machine for 30+ seconds, and backflush! If your machine has no 3 Way Valve, no worries. Just keep the coffee handle clean by soaking it in a Cafiza solution, and remove and clean the shower screen every week or two.“

„I just ordered a new pump because of this exact problem.  Originally I thought my OPV setting was drifting because my backflush pressure went down ~1/4 bar.  It turns out that the "sand" (resin) leaked into the line and some made it to the pump so it has been steadily degrading over time.  I cleaned it all out but that only put off the inevitable (sp?).“

„Assuming normal home use (maybe 2-6 doubles a day?), you shouldn't need to backflush that often; definitely not every day.  I generally backflush with Cafiza every other week or so, because there's really no need to do so more often, for me anyway.  I do the following after every shot:“

Schomer's Table@Lucidcafé 2 (#)

„It must be clean, yes, but it also must be seasoned with coffee oils so that the liquid espresso does not come into contact with the bare metal. For this reason, it is essential that after cleaning the handle or backflushing with espresso detergent, a seasoning shot be made and discarded to prepare the metal surfaces for coffee making.“

CafeTalk Comments (#)

„Do I have to open the water pipe when doing that, or does the pressure force the water back into the tank? I would like to clean the inside of the machine with the contents of these little bags that I got with it, but the manual does not describe backflushing at all, although the plate was delivered with it.“

„figure 24" total, 4mm ID; that's 7.6 ml of volume in the tubing. does a backflush even blow out that much liquid? and with every shot, instead of venting the coffee residue down the drain, it just lays in the banjo tube until the next shot is poured. so every shot is made with dirty brew water....“
