LOVE IT! July 31, 2008
I bought this product on a whim, it was on clearance at a local Williams Sonoma (the same price as Amazon) and I have told everyone I know about this product, I love it. I had cleaned my coffee machine several times the old fashioned way, vinegar, hot water, etc. but nothing seemed to really work. One time with this product and the coffee machine was pretty much brand new again and all the stains in my thermal coffee pot were gone, even when I use bleach to clean the pot there is still some left over stains, I love this stuff. I know that the box says to use once a week but I think that's a bit much, once a month or every other month is probably fine.

Effective cleaner, but Starbucks support says don't use it! July 25, 2008

I've been using this product for two years on my Starbucks Barista espresso machine and I think its been doing a good job.

Lately my espresso has been off, so I called Starbucks tech support. While the problem was unrelated, they asked how and how often I descale my machine. I told them Cleancaf and that I do it monthly.

The nice support agent said to stop using CleanCaf and use pulp-free lemon juice instead, or I'd risk voiding my warranty. She also said don't bother descaling but once every 3 months at most.

No more cleancaf for me!

Good product, but not economical to use May 2, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful

Product is fine. The coffee shop says it will clean up anything having to do with coffee....but... I thought I was getting a bigger size box than I saw down at the coffee shop that would make it more economical to use. This box is the same small size though. (about 2 1/2 by 6 inches) Has 3 envelopes for 3 uses. Says to use once per week. The price for 1 box with shipping is about 11 dollars. That is around 100 dollars per year! Good if they made a bigger size. Maybe they do but I can't find it. If needed I will buy this at the coffee shop and skip the high shipping cost. I may be missing something here (buy in bulk?) but thought I'd pass on the warning.

This works the best on our Hamilton Beach Brew Station Plus. Nothing else cleans this coffee maker as well. It's a tad expensive, but really does the job!
