It works just like promised. Illy recommends this product for their coffee machines, which is why I bought it. It is pretty easy to use. Just follow directions. Note the proportions, though. My coffee maker’s water reserve needed only one half of the packet.

Best product I’ve found to actually deep clean or descale/decalcify the coffee maker that I use (a Hamilton Beach Brewstation Plus). A bit expensive, but I’m sure it adds to the life of my coffee maker.

I love the ease and quality of this coffee pot cleaner. I have used it on several machines that I have had and it always does a good job with very little fuss or mess. We have a well and have hard water, so I clean our coffee pot every month with this product. Works great!

For the record, we are not gourmet coffee drinkers. We drink coffee. usually masked in plenty of flavored creamers. But we do use a Cuisanart DCC1200 Brew Central with gold filter and when we do put in a finer coffee for company, it brews a very nice pot. So keeping it clean is still important and this product worked pretty well. Not perfect, and I am not doing it every week as the packaging suggests. However, we do it periodically (probably every month or two), which requires a little more effort than it probably would if we did it every week, and it does what I want it to do. So go for it. . . And buy in bulk. . . always cheaper.

I used this cleaner in my coffee pot this morning – 10 run-throughs with clean water later, the water that comes out is still tainted with chemicals. This is disgusting – I used it exactly as the directions indicated, and after two run-throughs expected the pot to be ready to use – the coffee that came out was horrible. Decided it might need another few rinses, and have been continually running clear water through it ever since – it is still not coming out fit to drink. I have no idea if I will even be able to continue to use this coffee maker, or if it will keep tasting awful regardless of how often I rinse it all out. There are no words for how disappointed I am in this product – if I could give a zero-star rating, I would. Don’t waste your money on this crap – just use some vinegar. At least that won’t ruin your appliance.
