Maintenance
How to look after your Barista Express
Sage machines have built-in programmes for cleaning and descaling and tell you when it is time. Run the cleaning cycle with a tablet, descale when the display asks you to and replace the Claris filter every three months. Here is the schedule and the products we recommend.
Good to know about the Sage Barista Express
When the CLEAN ME light comes on, run the cleaning programme with the cleaning disc and a cleaning tablet in the portafilter. The programme takes about 5 minutes.
Sage recommends descaling every month, and especially if the machine is going to be left unused for a long time.
Sage recommends replacing the water filter in the tank after 3 months.

Water and filters
The right water protects your machine
The target is 2–4 °dH. Replace the Claris filter every three months to reduce the need for descaling. Do not use distilled water.
Water tank
The Barista Express runs from a water tank. Use an in-tank filter and replace it every 2–3 months.
