Quickmill 05000A automatic expresso brewing group revision

Inleiding

From time to time, it is essential to check the brewing group to keep the aroma of the coffee good. Unpleasant coffee fat can settle under the two brewing sieves. The sealing ring may need to be replaced. You don't necessarily have to open the case (then skip the steps), but this is very simple and makes the job easier. Spare parts are not so easy to obtain, e.g. www.quickmill.at is a good address.

You can keep the piston rod very thinly lubricated with a food-safe lubricant, but this is not absolutely necessary.
