Maintenance
1st-line carefully selects cleaning agents based on their performance and value. With over 30 years experience, we have tested many espresso machine cleaning supplies, and we found the ones below to be effective while causing the least damage to the parts inside your equipment. For example, we have seen some descaling agents eat at the metals inside an espresso machine. Our grinder tools can make the cleaning job easier. From grinder brushes to water treatment options, we have the right stuff to make your cleaning more effective!
Without proper cleaning and maintenance, the performance and beverage quality from your espresso machine and coffee grinder will deteriorate much more quickly than normal. Lack of proper maintenance can lead to costly damage to your investment. Whether you need to clean a home coffee maker or espresso machine or a commercial set up, using the improper cleaning supplies can destroy your flavor profile or the materials of your expensive machine.
Your water choice matters! Water corrosion is the number one cause of damage done to espresso machines and manufacturers do not cover them under warranty. Fortunately, if you soften your water, you will minimize the likelihood of water corrosion damage to your machine. We offer water softener options for plumbed in and tank espresso machine models.

Giving you the atmosphere of an Italian espresso bar in your place is what we do. Maintaining that atmosphere is up to you.
1st-line Equipment hand picks and thoroughly tests espresso machines so you don’t have to. Just about every home espresso machine worth considering is evaluated by us, and if found satisfactory, stocked and sold by us. That being said, there is required maintenance that if not performed will lead to the early demise of your tools, regardless of their European quality!
