Alexander’s Planet Degrease Coffee

με ΦΠΑ

Bottle Type

Portafilter and group head clean in one minute. The foam does the work.

Spray-on, Rinse-off

Traditional backflush cleaning requires dissolving a tablet or powder and soaking components for 10-15 minutes. Degrease Coffee works differently – spray directly into the filter basket and portafilter, rotate to spread the foam, leave for 1 minute, rinse. The active formula generates cleaning foam that penetrates and lifts coffee oils and organic deposits without brushing, scrubbing, or soaking.

Suitable for Daily Use

Formulated specifically for filter holders, portafilters, baskets, and group heads – not a generic kitchen degreaser. Odourless και non-corrosive to machine components. The 0.5kg spray bottle is built for daily use in an espresso bar without risk of metal corrosion.

Backflush Compatible

Can also be used for backflushing with the blind basket – insert 2 sprays of product, operate your machines cleaning program.

*It is not suitable to be sprayed on rubber gaskets or portafilter handles.

In a busy coffee shop, portafilter baskets and group heads accumulate coffee oils with every shot pulled. The traditional procedure is an 15-30 minute immersion in powder detergent with thorough scrubbing – time-consuming, and repeated mechanical scrubbing accelerates wear on basket mesh and metal surfaces over time. With Degrease Coffee there is no need to scrub. The active foam does the chemical work that scrubbing was doing mechanically – cutting through oils and organic deposits on contact, so the basket comes out clean after a rinse with no abrasion to the metal.

Degrease Coffee is produced in Italy by Alexander’s Planet Srl and formulated under Reg. 648/2004 with 90% biodegradability. It is odourless, which means it leaves no residue or scent that could transfer to the next shot.

Available in Cyprus through coffeeshopcy. Two variants are stocked: with spray nozzle (first purchase) and without spray nozzle (refill). If you already have the bottle, buy the refill version and keep your nozzle – they are identical in contents.

If you already own a Degrease Coffee bottle spray, purchase the refill (without nozzle) version. The spray nozzle from your existing bottle fits directly. Do not dispose of the nozzle.
