Why is descaling important for your Nespresso YY4889FD?

The accumulation of limescale in your machine can lead to malfunctions, a decrease in coffee quality, and premature wear of components. Regular descaling helps to:

• Preserve the quality of your coffee's flavors.

How often should you descale your Nespresso coffee machine?

The frequency of descaling depends on the hardness of the water used and how often the machine is used. It is generally recommended to descale your Nespresso YY4889FD every 3 to 6 months. If you use very hard water, more frequent descaling may be necessary.
