In this guide, I will demonstrate how to descale a Breville - Barista Pro Espresso Machine BES878-RVC.
After some uses, minerals such as limescale clog the tubes of the espresso machine, damaging it and affecting the coffee's taste. Descaling is the process of removing these built-up minerals.
Keeping up with regular descaling will extend the life of your espresso machine and produce better-tasting drinks!
