Maintenance

How to look after your Teresina

An E61 heat exchanger machine does best with daily backflushing with water, detergent once a week and a new group gasket about once a year. Here is the schedule and the products we recommend.

Good to know about the Tower Teresina

Four temperature levels

LOW, MED, HIGH and HOT correspond to 90, 92, 94 and 96 °C at the shower screen. Change the level in the OLED menu.

Switch between tank and plumbed-in water

On the RS version you switch from the tank to a plumbed-in water connection with the button next to the water tap.

Use soft water

Torre specifies a water hardness of 7–14 °dH and recommends a water filter or water softener if needed, as limescale can seriously damage the machine.

  1. Every day
    • Purge and wipe the steam wand after each use
    • Backflush with water and a blind basket
    • Rinse the portafilter and basket, empty the drip tray
  2. Every week
    • Backflush with Cafetto EVO
    • Soak the portafilters and baskets
    • Soak the steam tip in milk system cleaner
    • Brush the group gasket
  3. Every month
    • Wash the water tank
    • Change the water in the boiler
    • Soak the shower screen and dispersion block
  4. Every 6–12 months
    • Replace the group gasket and shower screen
    • Lubricate the cam
    • Replace the tank filter (every 2–3 months)

Water and filters

The right water protects your machine

Limescale is the most common cause of repairs on heat exchanger machines, and they should not normally be descaled with chemicals. Protect your machine with the right water from the start: measure the hardness and use an in-tank filter.
The target is 2–4 °dH. Do not use distilled water; the machine needs minerals for the level sensor to work.
0 °dH2–4 °dH recommended15 °dH

Water tank

The Teresina runs from a water tank. Use an in-tank filter and replace it every 2–3 months.
