Can this be used as a descaler for a tassimo coffe maker? Is it safe for tassimo?

NO, this is a kind of STRONG SOAP, specially designed to clean coffee oils. This is NOT a DESCALER. Never use this in the water reservoir. It's used to Clear all parts that come in contact with coffee oils and to do backflushes in 3-way valve operated espresso machines. Try Dezcal to do it. Or look around for instructions on how to use vinegar or citric acid to do so, if you want to "go wild" when removing CALCIUM from you machine. SOAP does NOT remove calcium, OK? Good luck.

how do i use it for espresso machine

you need a closed portofilter attachment, this forces your machine to backflush. you put about a teaspoon in and run the machine for a min. then flush it out a few times to make sure the cleaner is gone. you may want to investigate for more info on your machine.

Can I use this in a breville barista express espresso machine?

Powder descalers should not be used to clean 'Pump" espresso machines. Use a liquid descaler.

I have a mr coffee cafe barista, can i put this in the water resevoir? or just the porta filter?

I'm not familiar with the Mr. Coffee barista, but in general, you don't put this cleaner in the water reservoir of an espresso maching.

Great product. Probably the best.

Really strips all the coffee oils off the machine filter heads and also ceramic grinder in my sage machine. Use to clean extractor fan grease too with decent but not perfect results. Lasts a long time as not much required per clean. Best with warm water to dissolve grains of powder.

Good stuff for espresso machine and much more.

As far as the coffee machine goes it does exactly what is says on container. But it also good for other food related utensils and crockery. Eg tea stains, burnt on food on saucepans and oven trays. And a little goes a long way.

WARNING about this Product

FYI, Active ingredient is Sodium Hydroxide or better know as Caustic Soda, DO NOT use on alloy parts such as alloy portafilters and NEVER use as a descaler in your machine. “THIS PRODUCT IS NOT A DESCALER”It’s Safe on Stainless Steel parts only and wear gloves and eye protection.Otherwise it works well, also caustic soda is cheaper to buy.

A must for any espresso machine owner

I wouldn't be without Cafiza. It's fantastic for backflushing my Gaggia Classic Evo Pro and keeping my portafilter, shower screen etc clean. I only use two teaspoon's worth once a week so I expect this to last a long while.For what it's worth, Cafiza 2 is cheaper because it uses slightly different ingredients to Cafiza, and Cafiza 2 lacks organic certification. Personally, I play it safe and use the original Cafiza.
