Gaggia RI9706/00 Descaler 250ml Twin Pack Concentrate

Liquid Limescale Remover for Automatic Espresso Machines

The Gaggia descaler 250ml is a liquid concentrate that dissolves calcium and magnesium scale from espresso machine water circuits. Each bottle treats one full descaling cycle. The twin pack covers two services, and the formulation carries a neutral odour so the rinse stage clears quickly.

The blend combines 50% citric acid with 25% lactic acid. Both acids attack carbonate scale and carry it into the flush water. The concentrate dilutes into the reservoir without mixing or measuring, which keeps the procedure repeatable across sites.

Gaggia specifies a descaling interval tied to water hardness and daily cup volume, and the packaging recommends monthly use. The solution suits Gaggia and Philips fully automatic machines. Pour one full bottle into the tank, fill to the CALC CLEAN mark, then run the machine’s guided descaling cycle.
