The Importance of Coffee Machine Servicing

When it’s functioning properly, you don’t think about your coffee machine. That is until it breaks down and suddenly your business grinds to a halt.

If you own a café, restaurant, hotel or office, regularly servicing your coffee machine is the best way to keep your equipment running smoothly. Preventative maintenance helps you avoid unexpected breakdowns, ensures your coffee always tastes good and could even save you money on costly repairs.

 

Why Does Your Coffee Machine Need Servicing?

Your coffee machine doesn’t get much of a break. From early mornings to late nights your machine will tirelessly produce cup after cup of coffee, and over time seals begin to wear, components lose their effectiveness and limescale starts to build up.

Servicing your coffee machine every 12 months will:

• Keep your machine running smoothly
• Maintain great tasting, consistent coffee
• Reduce expensive, unexpected breakdowns
• Extend the life of your equipment
• Identify & fix minor issues before they become costly

It’s a bit like servicing your car. Spending a little time and money now could save you from having to spend a lot later down the line.

 

What Happens in a Service?

Servicing your coffee machine is a detailed process. Our engineers won’t just give your machine a quick once-over, they’ll thoroughly inspect the machine, deep clean the key components and replace any parts that wear out over time.

Our engineers will:

• Replace worn seals, washers and gaskets
• Deep clean group heads and all other brewing components
• Check steam wands and hot water valves are working
• Test the machines settings and performance
• Give you advice on any parts that will need replacing in the near future

Servicing can be completed in-house, limiting any disruption to your business.

 

Coffee Machine Repair When You Need It

Even with regular servicing problems can occur. Leaks, loss of pressure, poor coffee quality and complete machine failure are just some of the issues we can help you with.

Our coffee maker repair engineers are experienced in dealing with many different problems. We understand that every minute your machine is broken, it's costing you money, which is why we work quickly to get your coffee machine up and running again.

 

Expert Coffee Machine Repair

Not every repair will be as simple as replacing a washer. Sometimes faults occur that are beyond your control. Whether it’s a worn component or a more complex issue, we can help. We’ll diagnose the problem and explain what needs doing before we start the repair, helping to limit the time your machine is out of action so you can get back to brewing great coffee.

 

Don’t Let Limescale Damage Your Coffee Machine

Limescale is a coffee machines' worst enemy. Build up over time will reduce your machine’s performance and energy efficiency, resulting in costly repairs.

Changing your machine's water filter regularly will help keep your machine in top condition and guarantee the water you use to make your coffee is as clean as it can be. 

While we recommend most businesses change their filter annually, busy locations may require more frequent changes.
