Review on Gaggia Decalcifier Descaler Solution 250ml: Effective ๐Ÿงช Solution for Limescale Removal (Pack of 3 Bottles) by Tim Blandin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Use YEARLY or don't use at all!

I haven't descaled my Gaggia Syncrony Logic in 6 years, assuming it's not required for filtered NYC tap water. Although the water flow was decent I finally got around to it. The pump stopped working after a week. Of course, due to excessive limescale, the bottleneck had blocked the steam valve/pipe and had to be repaired. Dear mistake! I'm sure the unit would have lasted a few more years without descaling, although it's less than if it was done regularly.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Functionality
