Urnex Dezcal Descaling Powder Jar (900g/31.7oz)

Urnex Dezcal™ is specially crafted to tackle mineral buildup in hot water tanks and coffee or espresso machine components. This powerful descaler removes stubborn deposits that can clog your equipment, helping your machines run at their best. Plus, it’s great for keeping faucets, spray heads, and milk systems in top shape. If you want to ensure a smooth brewing experience and extend the life of your equipment, Urnex Dezcal™ is the solution you need.

We recommend that descaling your espresso machine be done by professional technicians, as it often requires removing the boiler for soaking. Instead of relying solely on descalers, it’s wise to regularly test your water or use water with a consistent hardness of around 50 ppm to help prevent scale buildup. One effective option is to use Third Wave Water combined with your preferred water source.
