In case of normal use (two full jugs of coffee every day), descale the
appliance:

-4 or 5 times a year if you use hard water (over 18dH).
Contact your local water board for information about the water hardness
in your area.
You can use white vinegar with 4% acetic acid or a liquid descaler to
descale the coffeemaker.

vinegar, powder descalers or tablet descalers to descale the appliance,
as this may cause damage.
Descaling takes approx. 30 to 60 minutes.
