Starbucks Interactive Cup Maintenance. Interactive Cup. Required Cleaning.
E N D
Required Cleaning • Brew Group: Regular rinsing and cleaning with urn cleaner prevents coffee oils from building up and affecting the taste and body of the coffee. A neglected brew group will not perform as designed and lead to larger problems later. • Cocoa Whipping Bowl: Weekly cleaning and monthly sanitizing will keep the whipping bowl free of built up cocoa that could back up into the machine. Cleaning and sanitizing will produce better tasting cocoa and ensure your Interactive Cup remains sanitary and odor free. • Cocoa Canister: Clean the canister thoroughly and air dry to prevent cocoa from coagulating at the base of the canister thus burning out the motor. • Coffee Hoppers: To remove oils that can be visually unappealing, remove hoppers and clean with dish soap and a non-abrasive sponge. Air dry completely before re-attaching. Coffee oils become rancid over time, affecting taste and body of the coffee.
