Think of the TPU60706 as an espresso bar that lives on your counter. It is a stainless steel VeroCafe from the 800 Series, grinds beans fresh for each cup, and its drink menu stretches from espresso through café con leche to caffe crema. Home Connect is built in, and the milk system rinses itself automatically.
A machine like this stands or falls on two chores, descaling and brew unit cleaning. The 800 Series reminds you of both, and ignoring the reminders is the commonest way one ends up needing a technician instead of a rinse. Scale reaches the heating circuit, the brew unit seizes up when it is never taken out, and dried milk narrows the tubes.
On a visit we ask when the machine was last descaled and when the brew unit last came out. Then we rinse the unit, inspect the milk system and test the heating circuit. A well-kept machine is usually a short appointment.
It is, quite seriously. Scale in the heating circuit causes more expensive failures than anything else on a bean-to-cup machine, and the prompt reflects how much water has genuinely flowed through yours.
About weekly if the machine runs daily. It slides out, goes under the tap and slides back, and it is the most useful habit for avoiding brew unit trouble.
Rinses that get skipped or interrupted leave dried milk behind, and it narrows the tubes over time. Letting the rinse finish each time keeps the passages clear.
