Give The Gift of Less Hassle & Ultimately A Better Tasting Beverage With Urnex

Thursday December 21, 2017 // By Dana Schlingman

I know that giving your mom a vacuum for Christmas isn’t exactly good form. Cleaning supplies don’t necessarily scream “happy holidays” UNLESS you are the bedraggled barista tired of scrubbing or the cafe owner in a dither about disassembling her grinder to clean it.

Urnex literally makes a product for every cleaning conundrum. Give someone the gift of less frustration and less hassle - oh and most importantly a better tasting beverage.

Because... coffee and tea made in dirty equipment, tastes like it’s been made in dirty equipment.

Here Are A Few of Our Favorite Products From Urnex’s Extensive Array:

Cafiza® Espresso Machine Cleaner
The true workhorse of the Urnex line-up, Cafiza® Espresso Machine Cleaner Powder is specifically formulated for espresso machine back-flush cleaning. Because it is impossible to scrub internal mechanisms/parts and because any residue would end up in a beverage, this powerful product has been formulated for maximum solubility and easy rinsability. Translation: Cafiza does the hard part. You don’t have to scrub and Cafiza leaves no chemically, soapy film to wipe off afterward. Plus it’s NSF certified for metal compatibility and safety and OMRI™ Listed for use in Organic Production. So it won’t corrode your equipment or negate your organic certification (oh yeah, did you know that a cleaning product could compromise your certification? - yep, that’s a thing).

Grindz™ Grinder Cleaner
Made of gluten-free, organic oats and pharmaceutical grade binder, Grindz™ from Urnex is the world’s first product for cleaning coffee grinders. This patented innovation is all-natural, food-safe and flavor neutral. Simply grind the small coffee bean size tablets the way that you would grind conventional coffee and Grindz absorbs the coffee oils and debris clinging to grinder burrs and internal components - no disassembly, chemicals or scrubbing necessary! With this handy product, avoid the stress of a high stakes grinder-jigsaw puzzle (and the maintenance fee when you botch the reassembly...) and keep lingering coffee grounds/oils from dulling your burs or tainting your brew.

1-2-Cold Brew
Because “cold’ brew (as implied by the name) does not incorporate heat, it is especially important to properly clean and sanitize the equipment used for this brew method. Like any other food products, tea and coffee decay. Without the boiling water required for traditional brewing, cold brew vessels, spigots and crafts are even more prone to harbor bacteria, mold and build-up. 1-2-Cold Brew is a two-step process designed to remove residue and sanitize.
Step 1: Clearly Cold removes residue and oil
Step 2: Compete Cafe sanitizes

Liquid formulated and EPA approved this system is efficient and effective!

Freez™ Ice Machine Cleaner
Did you know that mold and bacteria can survive in the freezer? So... if you haven’t attended to that ice machine in a while, your smoothies may be a little more probiotic than you want them to be - GROSS! Designed for use on all commercial ice systems as a cycle-and-soak product, Urnex Freez™ flushes out the built-up grime compromising your ice.

Rinza® Milk Frother Cleaner
An integral component in the daily cleaning regimen, Rinza® easily removes milk residue on steam wands, valves, and tubes. Suitable for use on automatic milk frothers, manual steam wands, traditional and super automatic espresso machines, Rinza® is quite versatile. Plus with acidic, alkaline and tablet formulations you can best address your cafe’s specific concerns.

The Full Circle™ Professional Portfolio
Want to save the planet one cleaning product at a time? Then this product line is for you! The result of years of innovation, Urnex Full Circle™ products meet the highest standards for cleaning power while leaving a low impact on the environment. Biodegradable, phosphate free and odorless, this professional portfolio contains specialized products to clean espresso, coffee and grinder machines.

Complete Café™ Equipment Sanitizer
Don’t forget to sanitize - even sparkling equipment might not be sanitary! Complete Café™ is an EPA Sanitizer designed for use on and around coffee, tea, and other café-style equipment.

Hopefully, these suggestions save you and your loved ones a little time scrubbing at the sink this holiday season - that’s something I think everyone can raise their cup to…

Here’s to a different sort of white winter - Cheers!
