Frequently Asked Questions

Do Wacaco coffee makers heat water?

No. All Wacaco portable espresso makers require you to fill the water tank with hot water.

Are Wacaco coffee makers made from safe materials?

Wacaco complies with major international safety approvals regarding food contact materials. All plastic materials, in contact with the coffee and water, used in the manufacturing of their espresso makers are listed BPA-free.

Are Wacaco coffee makers dishwasher safe?

No. We recommend washing the scoop, the brush, the cup if used, the portafilter, the filter basket and the area of the main body positioned below the filter basket under running water. Clean the other parts with a damp cloth. After cleaning, allow all parts to dry separately and thoroughly before storing them away.
