You have to degrease your Melitta Solo approximately every 2 months or when the coffee machine tells you to. Use the Melitta cleaning tablets for this. You rinse the pipes with the tablets, so coffee residue and grease disappears. This way, you can keep your Melitta in good condition and it lasts longer.
