1. Start with the machine unplugged. Check the machine to make sure no nespresso pods are loaded.
2. Plug the machine in. Press and hold both buttons for 5 seconds. Both buttons will start flashing rapidly (3-4 times/second). Do not confuse this with the slower flashing speed (1-2 times /second). If this happens, unplug the machine and start over.
3. Empty one (1) 100mL packet of the descaling solution in the water reservoir. Fill the reservoir with 0.5L of water, or until the reservoir is almost full like in the video.
4. Place a glass bowl, preferably one with a spout like a Pyrex measuring glass, under the coffee outlet.
5. Press the Lungo button once. The machine will immediately start cycling the solution through the machine, until the reservoir is empty. Descaling should be done in a well-ventilated area.
6. Once the first cycle is done, fill the reservoir with the used descaling solution. Press the Lungo button once more to run the solution though the machine a second time.
7. Dispose of the descaling solution and rinse the reservoir out. Fill with clean water, press the Lungo button again to start the first rinse.
8. Fill the reservoir again with clean water and run a second rinse.
9. Press and hold both buttons for 5 seconds to exit descaling mode, or unplug the machine.
Thank you! Very helpful. My lights wouldn’t blink till I held them quite a bit longer.
Thank you, this is the process I will be trying.
Thank you for the written steps. Minor correction (at least in my experience), after plugging the machine in, you need to turn it on, THEN press and hold the two buttons
Also it sometimes doesn't get out of descaling mode if not unplugged for too long. I got a messy coffee because of that lol
😂😂
Not sure how all these people are having issues. This video is short, easy to follow, and well made. Thank you for making the process so easy Nespresso.
@@SB-hm4iw false.
@@SB-hm4iw why are you so upset over a simple process?
What would be truly useful is if more comprehensive instructions actually came with the actual machine instead of having to hunt around for a tutorial. I have had 2 of these Essenza mini machines. Neither of them would enter descaling mode until almost 10 secs passed and both got stuck in descaling mode. I had to wait closer to15 seconds before exit. This seems to be a common issue. I also found the quality of the coffee produced inferior post descale. My previous machine - another brand - had full instructions and worked every time. It also told me when the machine needed to be descaled.
We appreciate your feedback. Should you need any assistance with your machine, give us a call at 800.562.1465, and one of our machine experts would be happy to assist you.
Absolutely agree with you. I've had 2 of these machines. I won't be buying another. Despite looking after them both carefully they both started pouring water out of the housing instead of the spout after about a years worth of use. The instructions are hopeless and the troubleshooting guide is no use whatsoever
Please call Nespresso directly, Tanya, 800.562.1465. We stand behind our brand and, like you, disappointed your concerns were not addressed.
This is great comment. My sentiments, exactly. I have had the same problems.
Mine too and Nespresso don’t do anything when you ring them
Not sure while people are confused. I followed the video and everything worked out as expected
Be cautious - this video is a lie. Once you hold two buttons for 5 seconds - the cup indicators start flashing one by one, and the process begins immediately. The machine does not know when to stop, and won't shutoff by any button combination - only unplugging the cord helps. Not that this video explained how to stop the descaling once the container is empty anyway. Also no info if we should pour hot descaling fluid back to container or wait for it to cool.
Hello, when the descaling cycle is complete, it’s important to fill the water tank completely, and run through the descaling cycle with fresh water. It’s also important to be near your machine at the end of the cycle. A machine expert will be happy to walk you through the descaling process. Call 800.562.1465, 24/7 or check the machine assistance page on our website, on the machine tab.
Same problem here. The both button did not start flashing, instead one by one. And started the process quickly. You made customers wrong. Change this video!!
You are a moron and an idiot. You can't even follow a simple, clear and short instructional video. Sad.
You need to turn on the machine first then hold two button for 5 seconds. Otherwise it start immediately.
on year 3, never descaled.... will give it a go
I'm inlove with this Nespresso Esenza Mini 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗. I have a lot of espresso machine, but this is that i love very much. Greatings from Germany!
You finally did it! I've been waiting for this video instruction for 2 years.
You were waiting not in vain 😊
Now im scared to descale after reading the comments 😅😢😂
How difficult is this?!? If the company wants an easy fix that doesn’t compromise the design,let me know! After descaling I cleaned up everything and just now I wanted my morning coffee and spent 10 15min resetting it as it wouldn’t want to be normal again 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️😤😤😤
Having that happen before your morning caffeine jolt is just extra torture. In general Nespresso spends too much effort on image and not enough on substance (the nitty gritty of the user experience).
I am going to reach out to your local shop for support, I think. While the instructions are clear, my Mini actually doesn’t go through the cycles - i.e., no need to press the lungs button to start each cycle. It just keeps on draining the water from the tank and will keep going even when there is no more water.
We're disappointed to hear this, Eddie, and we are happy to help. Machine experts are available 24/7 for comprehensive troubleshooting at 800-562-1465.
This is the same thing that mine is doing. What was the solution?
You don’t do the thing with the buttons until you’ve turned it on first. Then hold the huttons if you do it to turn it on this is what happens.
Unplug machine. then hold the lungo button while you plug it in/turn plug on. Should fix
Nespresso needs to add this to the video. I had to look WAY too deep in the comments section to find this information. Nespresso, if you’re listening, please take heed.
Thank you for the insight! You saved me an entire call-in to the Nespresso club, and for that you have my true gratitude. I hope my liking/commenting below helps others to find your guidance.
Mine did the same thing. It just kept going without any push of the ligo button. I had to hurry up and go through the cycles really fast to avoid spilling descaling liquid and water everywhere. I hope i didnt mess anything up.
You should have shown the the spent container water/descaler going back into the water reservoir for a second round. I missed that.
Thank you for sharing your impressions with us, Charlie! 😀 Be sure we'll gladly forward your feedback to our team for review.

Agreed. The video has way to many jump cuts. A lot of professionally produced instructional videos put way too much effort into looking good and not nearly enough effort into showing how all the steps fit together.
Démonstration très claire, merci. Plus explicite que le schéma sur la notice d'origine.

Hy Mine is not blinking like in the video after 5sec just 1 button at the time . Going through the water tough but im not sure if its noenal.
Wow! Not at all helpful!! Especially when your machine doesn't respond by simultaneous flashing but quick alternating flashing and then the non-stop pouring of alllllll the liquid until the machine began coughing as it ran out of water....
No button response.
Had to UNPLUG to make it stop
Is that normal Nespresso??
We are dismayed to learn your machine has not met your expectations, Kelly. To speak with a machine expert, please contact us through our toll-free number, 800-562-1465.
I've done the descaling process but i forgot there was a capsule left in the container and after the whole descaling process it's stopped working. No more water was pumped so i opened the whole machine and tried to fix the issue. The machine was properly decalcified and cleaned inside but the electric sensor to get water to pump for pressure i guess was broken. Still when i start the machine i hear a soft suond, little water is pumped but not enough to make the classic noisy suond (no suond at all) but water is heated. Any solutions?
Btw these nespresso are a pain to open, make it more friendly from this pov cuz i want to fix my own stuff easy
Please give us a call directly, 1-800-562-1465, and a machine expert will be happy to assist you.
After descale the machine stays in mode. The two lights continue to flash and don't accept orders!
Hi! Please reach us through our Global pages on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter and we will gladly look into this for you.
Mine too 😢
After how much usage should I descale? I have made 40 (give or take) cups of coffee from my new machine..
once every 6 months is fine i think, with daily use
my essenza mini doesn’t leak when I make coffee but started leaking everywhere while descaling. This has happened with 2 different essenza minis. This process is too complicated also
Hi, Sara! We'd like to connect you with the right team to further assist you. Let us know where you are contacting us from? Many thanks🤍
Not complicated at all. It’s four simple steps for crying out loud.
@@stephanos2758 Sometimes the machine perhaps doesn’t behave identically as what is shown in the video. At least the company is responsive to Sara’s question.
@@ETamJP what does that even mean? Every machine is programmed to do the same thing. And it only has two buttons. How is it complicated? My marriage is complicated. This thing is a walk in the park
@@stephanos2758
Worked great, thanks!
Is it safe to make coffee after just 2 rinsing or should i wait for it to dry and make coffee after ?
After descaling, we recommend allowing your Essenza Mini machine time to cool down (approximately 10 minutes) before brewing your next capsule.
We followed the instructions, yet small black particles are still coming out.. help?
Please let us know where you are contacting us from, so we could further assist you.
Worked fine on my side. Thanks for this vid!
Will monitor while using and will return for any feedback

Αν όμως δεν το έβρισκε ο χρήστης χρήσιμο όπως εγώ διότι έχει ελληνικά τι θα λέγατε κύριε θα τον γράφατε μην πω που δεν θα απαντούσαμε εεεε ως συνήθως στα αρνητικά σχόλια εεεε. Αυτά θέλω να μου απαντήσετε στα θετικά όλοι καλοί είναι. Αλλά 🆘🆘🆘 ελληνικη γλώσσα θέλω να δω κύριοι 🤨🤨🤨☹️☹️☹️☹️.
Easy step by step explanation.
Glad to be helpful!
Great video, thank you Nespresso! However since descaling the machine has stopped working altogether 🤦! Any ideas why???
Hi! We can help! Would you please give us a call at 1-800-562-1465 when you are near your Essenza Mini?
@@nespresso thank you for your speedy reply! Do you have a UK number I can contact please?!
Hi there, of course! Our Technical Team can be reached on 0800 442 442 (UK), and then select option number 2. Our Coffee Specialists are available between 8am-6pm Monday-Friday, and between 9am-4pm on Saturdays. Thank you!
@@nespresso Thanks for the UK number! Unfortunately they were unable to fix the problem so I will have to buy a new machine 🤦! Beware descaling it people!! It seems the very high temperature generated in that program can bust the machine 🤔😯!!
Really good video. Easy to follow!
We're glad you found the video helpful! 🤗
How to make coffee with nespresso essenza mini
The water is still cloudy after rinsing 3 times. Should I keep rinsing it until the water is clear?
Please give us a call directly, 1-800-562-1465, and a machine expert will be happy to assist you.
Do you have to use 2 units of the descale? Or just 1?
You only need one unit to descale. If you're running into issues, please call us directly to speak with a machine expert for comprehensive troubleshooting. We are available 24/7 at 800-562-1465.
I have 3 essenza MIni and the same thing happened with each one. After decalcification looks like they are stuck in descaling mode. I did a factory reset and it still doesn't work. The LEDs on the buttons are flashing and no longer turning off by themselves.
Hello. Thank you for reaching out. Please let us know where you are contacting us from, so we could further assist you.
@@nespresso Thank you!!! I pressed 5 sec.both keys simultaneously and it recovered. I LOVE NESPRESSO ESSENZA MINI!!! 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Delighted to hear that everything works properly, Diana ❤️ Feel free to reach us if you will need further assistance.
Thanks. It was very useful 🙏

Hi my concern is about the descaling solution. Will it leave a residue after all the process and eventually will be bad for health???
Hi Stan, we can confirm that the rinsing process will remove almost all the descaling solution. Our descaling solution is made for use in our machines, and when used according to the instruction does not pose any risk to health. Many thanks.
ALMOST all…..Yikes ! I don’t want ANY solution in my drinks, what a waste of money I won’t be using it googled it and those chemicals are really toxic.
@@mousenation3867 exactly!
worked perfectly. thank you.

I did the descaling, but the coffee is still with an odd flavour, what should I do ?
Hello Teofilo. It would be best to contact us directly and speak to a machine expert, who can provide you with troubleshooting assistance.
Is there a signal that tells me when to descale? Also, is it necessary?
Hello. Thank you for reaching out. Please let us know where you are contacting us from, so we could further assist you.
@@nespresso Minnesota.
We recommend descaling your machine with Nespresso Descaling Solution every 3 months or 300 capsules, whichever comes first, to remove internal mineral deposit that can build up, which can affect the flow, temperature and overall performance of your machine.
@@nespresso Thank you!
What can I use instead of the descaling kit? I don’t have it.
Hello, We will not be able to recommend another substance for cleaning limescale since all the different limescale substances can damage the machine.
We suggest using the descaling agent we offer.
You can purchase it over the phone, on the website or at one of the boutique stores closest to your home. nespres.so/a/0nyfpw.
My machine is still in the descaling mode, blinking fast after the descaling process is finished. Turned off the power, turned on after 1 hour, the machine is still in tbe descaling mode. What should i do? I am in Australia.

How to use a nespresso essenza mini
How often should i descaling my esseza mini?
We recommend descaling your machine with Nespresso Descaling Solution every 3 months or 300 capsules, whichever comes first, to remove internal mineral deposit that can build up, which can affect the flow, temperature and overall performance of your machine. A weekly cleaning will keep the brew unit clear of grinds and coffee residue.
im only hold 1 button and only hold about 1 second.. it works or not??
We're here to help, Hendrik. A machine expert will be happy to walk you through the descaling process. Call 800.562.1465, 24/7 or check the machine assistance page on our website, on the machine tab.
I descaled my Essenza Mini. Needed extra rinse. But now when I want to make coffee, i press one button and it keeps flashing . When I pressed my espresso button , after waiting for a couple of minutes it went back to descaling mode. How can I fix this?
Hi! You may need to hold the buttons down longer to exit descaling mode. If the issue persists we have technical support available at 1-800-562-1465.
Mine didn’t enter descaling mode, it just went crazy and wouldn’t stop!
Hi Darren, I am sorry to hear that. Please send us a DM with your member number and full primary address if you need any assistance with your Essenza Mini machine. Many thanks.
guys my machine does not go into descaling mode when i press the two buttons simultaneously it just shuts off (like the lights don’t blink it shuts off)
We understand you're frustrated with the descaling process, Maryam. We expect your Nespresso experience to be seamless and gratifying.

Same issue as mine. Any idea how to overcome it?
Thanks 🙏
😊🤍
The absolut worst machines. Yesterday I experienced making three cups of coffee right after each other. That NEVER happens. It's usually starts in descaling mode, and the procedure of holding down the two buttons does feck all. I have to yank it out of the power socket and plug it back in to force it to stop. Then I have to wait 30 seconds for it to warm up, and then usually go right back into descaling, having to do it all over again.
Writing this I've done this 10 times in a row with NO results.
Hello. A machine expert will be happy to resolve these issues over the phone. Please call 800.562.1465, so we may best assist you with your machine.
Is it ok to use another brand descaling solution? I am not able to get the Nespresso one right now. Would it harm the machine?
Hello! In general, we do not recommend using products that are not related to Nespresso, as we cannot attest their quality. If you share your country of living with us, we can send your request to the responsible team for more detailed answer. Thank you!
@@nespresso hi! I live in Tukey, Gaziantep. There is no nespresso store in my city and I have card issues so I can’t order it online. And i haven’t descaled my machine since I bought it this march
Hello Bersu Bozkurt,
You can call 444 20 21 or 0800 211 01 00 Nespresso Club Turkey line and get immidiate assistance about issue.
Have a nice day
日本語の説明動画ほしいー。
I will just go to Starbucks 😅 I buy the coffee machine just to save my time now I am like I need to take a week training to do this
Each capsule is $1, it is a lot cheaper than going to starbuck
Pour super hot descaling solution BACK into the plastic reservoir? Doesn’t seem right…
The Essenza Mini water tank is proportionately small, so to effectively descale the machine, it's necessary to run the descaling solution through the machine twice. This process will not cause damage to the Essenza Mini.
My machine overheated and got destroyed with this method!!!
Worked
The single shot isn’t pouring as much anymore
Machine experts are available 24/7 at 800-562-1465 for comprehensive troubleshooting.
You can reprogram the buttons to whatever size you want.
Mine too. Had to turn off at PowerPoint to get it to stop😢
SUPER AMAZING
Thank you!☺️

In a hotel waiting to get some coffee - This is the 3rd Nespresso video I've watched and still haven't showed how to place the capsules lmao I'll just slam them in and use brute force
First you should apply for NASA and try to have a degree on deep space exploration. Nespresso capsules are very complicated to dock into the machine…
You can't be serious 😂 put it in and close it...rocket science
Too complicated
