The following are instructions for the descale and cleaning cycles. These are separate procedures
and should be done whenever the corresponding light is illuminated on the control panel.
EMPTYING DRIP TRAY
DESCALING
RUNNING A CLEAN CYCLE
CLEANING THE BASKETS
AND PORTAFILTER
Time to complete: approximately 90 minutes
Time to complete: approximately 6 minutes
NOTE: Please remove water filter from reservoir it before
starting the descale cycle.
When the orange empty
indicator rises enough to be
visible, it’s time to empty the
main drip tray.
Remember to clean these after each brew. Remove
the basket from the portafilter and hand-wash both
thoroughly.
NOTE: Remove center drip tray
before emptying. Wipe off with
a damp cloth separately.
A clean cycle flushes out residual oils or grounds that are built up
in and around the group head. The CLEAN light will automatically
illuminate to indicate when a clean cycle is required. You may also run
a clean cycle if you notice a change in brew quality. The clean cycle
requires the cleaning disc (included with the machine and storable
in the accessory storage) and a cleaning tablet (also included and
available for purchase on ninjakitchen.com/accessories).
Follow these steps to run a clean cycle:
1 Ensure the main drip tray is completely empty as the water
brewed from the clean cycle will be deposited into the main drip
tray. Not emptying the main drip tray may cause overflow.
CLEANING THE FROTHER
DISHWASHER-SAFE PARTS
– Funnel
When the descale light illuminates, you must run a descale cycle. If
a descale isn’t performed after the light turns on, drink quality will
diminish and your machine may clog and stop working.
Descaling breaks down and removes limescale and mineral buildup
inside the machine. Doing this will help maintain peak performance if
routinely performed with a descale solution whenever the DESCALE
light turns on.
1 Ensure the main drip tray is completely emptied, as some of the
water brewed from the descale cycle will be deposited into the
drip tray. Not emptying the main drip tray may cause overflow.
Wipe with damp cloth: Do this immediately after frothing
to prevent any milk from getting stuck to the steam wand.
– Whisk
– Cleaning disc
– Water reservoir
– Bean hopper
Auto purge: After every froth, push the steam wand back
into the down position without the jug installed to initiate an
auto purge. This will help clean the inside of the steam wand
after frothing. You can purge any time by pressing
the PURGE button.
– All drip tray components.
Removable whisk: Remove the whisk from the milk jug
and handwash thoroughly after each use.
NOTE: Hand-wash all other parts.
Do not submerge assisted tamper in water.
Wipe with a clean damp cloth.
For a deeper clean of the whisk and steam wand,
fill milk jug with water and a drop of dish soap and run
the THIN froth program.
2 Dissolve the provided Ninja descale powder in a separate container
with 37 fl. oz. of water. Pour solution mixture into water reservoir.
2 Fill the water reservoir up to but not exceeding the Max Fill line.
3 Insert the double basket in the portafilter.
4 Place the cleaning disc on top of the double basket, with the
handle facing up.
CLEANING THE CONICAL BURR GRINDER
To prevent clogging and ensure the highest quality output, it is recommended to clean your conical burr grinder weekly at
a minimum for daily use. For dark roast, decaf and other oily bean types, it is recommended to clean the grinder more often.
For less than daily use, clean your grinder monthly at minimum or anytime you swap out or refill the beans.
4 Clean removed burr grinder with brush.
5 Place 1 cleaning tablet in the centre of the cleaning disc.
Be sure that the machine is turned off and unplugged
before proceeding.
1 Remove all beans from the bean hopper. See Switching
Out Beans for reference.
2 Remove bean hopper by lifting handle and turning to
counterclockwise.
5 Then, clean burr grinder attached to machine with
cleaning brush.
6 Be sure to clean the inside of the grinding cradle as
well.
3 Remove upper burr by rotating counterclockwise,
aligning the orange arrow on the burr grinder with the
orange arrow labeled ALIGN on the machine. Once
aligned, lift upper burr out.
6 Fasten the portafilter in the group head.
7 Press the CLEAN button, then press the centre dial to start the
clean cycle.
8 The machine will start the process of backflushing the shower
screen and group head and depositing the water and sediment
from the clean cycle into the main drip tray.
9 The clean cycle will take approximately 6 minutes to complete.
The machine will beep when the clean cycle is complete.
10 After the clean cycle is complete, remove both the portafilter and
main drip tray with caution, as there may be water in both. Hand-
wash with warm soapy water.
NOTE: DO NOT allow burrs to come into contact with
water.
NOTE: When cleaning the burr grinder attached to the
machine, only use the cleaning brush.
OR
Fill the water reservoir with 16 oz. of white vinegar, then fill the
reservoir to the Descale line with water.
3 Insert the double basket into the portafilter.
4 Fasten the portafilter into the group head.
5 Ensure milk jug is placed on the milk jug platform with the steam
wand inside.
6 Place an empty cup (at least 18 oz.) under the portafilter. You may
have to remove the centre drip tray.
7 Press the DESCALE button, then press the centre dial to start the
descale cycle.
8 The machine will start the descale cycle. The machine will
flush solution through the steam wand and portafilter for
approximately 90 minutes. The machine will count down the
remaining time on the control panel.
9 The machine will beep indicating when the descale cycle is
complete.
10 After the cycle is complete, remove the portafilter, main drip tray,
and milk jug with caution, as there will be water in each.
11 Empty the contents of each and hand-wash with warm, soapy
water to remove any solution that could affect the flavor of your
coffee.
12 Fill the reservoir with fresh water up to, but not exceeding, the
Max Fill line.
13 Install the main drip tray back on the machine and install the
portafilter in the group head. Do not install the milk jug.
14 Flush the group head by running a 12 oz. classic brew.
15 Then, with the milk jug uninstalled, flush the steam wand by
pressing the PURGE button.
