Balancing the cleaning function for your espresso machine with the ability to protect the flavor and quality of organic coffee is a real concern. Cafetto addresses that issue by compiling with OMRI (the Organic Materials Review Institute) standards for the USDA National Organic Program. Cafetto Evo is the first espresso machine cleaner to be certified by an organic certification body.
