They are the main components of espresso crema, but they oxidise rapidly and become rancid, depositing on the inner walls of the dispensing group (showerhead, filter, and portafilter) where, due to the high temperature, they tend to carbonise. These residues impart an unpleasant and persistent bitter taste to the beverage, compounded by the rancidity caused by oil oxidation, which occurs within 12-18 hours. Used daily, pulyCAFF® Plus ensures the complete removal of coffee residues and prevents unpleasant odors.
