Review: Did the job! - I was skeptical about this product given how poorly my coffee maker has been performing of late. Mind you, I have a Krups IL Caffé Bistro Model 867, which is at least 14 years old, old enough that I forget exactly which year I got it as a gift for Christmas. In any case, It has been a trusty coffee maker for all of that time up until the last month when it started to do a lot of gurgling/percolating and overproduction of steam. It was also taking at least 45 minutes to an hour to make a pot and I would lose about two cups of water in that time due to the steam. I was worried I would have to purchase a new coffee maker until I saw the decalcifier as an option. The instructions that are in my manual indicate 4 cups (32 oz.) of water (comes up to the "7" marker on the side of the pot) to dissolve the product into, though the instructions were geared for the espresso maker on the unit (rarely used on my part). I did what others have done in their reviews, which is to run about half of the solution through the system, switch the system off for at least 10 minutes, and then switch it back on to run the rest through. I immediately started to see little white pieces of crust show up in the pot, which I assume were the calcium/mineral deposits. I flushed the system twice with water and decided to use the second pack of decalcifier given the age of the machine and the fact that I'd never cleaned it in this way before. I'm going on my 4th pot of water to flush out the second cycle and I'm still seeing the mineral deposits showing up in the pot after the water passes through. I'll probably keep flushing the system until I stop seeing the calcium chunks, though thankfully with a filter in the mix they won't make it into the brew anyway. The best part is that the brew time is much improved, down to about 15 minutes for 12 cups (I overfill the 10-cup pot), AND, the perpetual gurgling an sputtering has gone away!
Review: Works for Krups FL00D Tea Kettle - Bought this to clean a Krups FL700D Electric Tea Kettle, hoping it would be the right one to clean it. Luckily I kept my instruction manual for the tea kettle, but I was nervous to use this, as it said not to use citric acid, and this product appears to have some type of acid. The instructions were also vague because it did not specify the amount. So I crossed my fingers hoping it would work. I love my tea kettle but the hard water scaling was getting worst every day and I was concerned the kettle would stop working, and life without tea is just not an option. I used the hard water test strip and it showed 2 red blocks so I figured I should use half the amount. I filled the kettle up to the max fill line with cold water and added 1/2 a packet. I dissolved it for about 30-45 seconds until the stains disappeared and that's it! It looks brand new. I should mention the kettle was cold and I did not turn it on at all, it was done with cold water only and the appliance was off.

## Features

- 2 packs of descaling powder
- Descaling powder to be used with kettles, coffee and espresso machines

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many tablets/units come with this kit? How many uses?**
A: There are only two packages in this box and I ended up using half a package of the crystals at a time, getting four uses out of the box.  I did purchase another item that comes in a three pack with four packets in each for a total of 12 uses by Urnex Dezcal for about the same price.  Just received them and have not tried them, but the Krups worked very well and if these do not work as well, I will purchase the Krups again.  I have fairly hard water and need to use the product more frequently than most do.  There are no instructions with it, but another poster had suggested dissolving the crystals in half a pot of water, pour in coffee maker, let it begin to filter through, turn off the coffee maker and let it sit for about 20 minutes and then turn on again.  That worked very well, and then run a couple of pots using just plain water to completely clean the unit before brewing a pot of coffee.

**Q: My box did not come with any instructions. How do you use the descaling powder?**
A: My particular coffee machine KRUPS KM9008  recommends mixing powder with 16 ounces of water,pouring into the water fill tank,and starting the machine. Be sure to remove filter first,if your machine has one! .Allow half of the liquid to run through,then switch off machine and let stand for 1 hour.then restart machine to complete the brewing cycle.Discard liquid and rinse machine by running it through 2 full cycles with water only.

**Q: How many tablets/units come with this kit? How many uses?**
A: 1 kit or box has 2 packets + a test strip for water hardness. Each packet is for 1 descaling. Descale every 3 to 4 months depending on water hardness (I filter my water). White vinegar & water will also work as a descaler. Check the internet for how to.

**Q: Hi, Have any of you experience a 'perfume' type of smell on the machine (and coffee) after using the product? Thanks in advance.**
A: Only happens if you don't cycle with clear water and no coffee a couple of times after the cleaning cycle.
