Full product description
Miele sells a descaling tablet for each of its appliance families, and if you own more than one Miele appliance you end up buying more than one product. The underlying job is the same in all of them: dissolve the calcium the water left behind.
This is one 35% citric acid concentrate that covers the coffee machines, the steam ovens, the washers and the dishwashers. Three ingredients, nothing else — 35% citric acid anhydrous is the maximum cold-mix concentration, so every tablespoon is working. 30 descales per 16 fl oz bottle.
Features:
- Covers the Miele range – CVA 6000 and 7000, CM5, CM6 and CM7 Series, CMB 6000 and CT 8000 coffee machines; DGC 6000 to 7880 and H-Series Moisture Plus steam ovens; W1 and WT1 washers; G 5000 to 7000 dishwashers.
- 30 descales per bottle – One 16 fl oz bottle delivers 30 full cycles at the standard 1-tablespoon dose — years of maintenance at quarterly use.
- Liquid concentrate format – Stretches across long-term routine maintenance instead of committing a single-use tablet to every cycle.
- 35% citric acid, three ingredients – Citric acid, sodium citrate and distilled water. No fragrance, no dye, no surfactant.
- One product for the whole kitchen – The same bottle services your Miele coffee machine, steam oven, washer and dishwasher.
How to use:
- Add 1 tablespoon of concentrate to the appliance's descaling reservoir or container.
- Top up with water as your appliance's instructions specify.
- Run the machine's own descaling program.
- Run the full rinse cycle afterwards before normal use.
