Abstract: Method for cleaning a steam nozzle (7) of a beverage preparation machine comprising a rinsing container (12) having a top opening (22) and a draining device (23) for evacuating the liquid contained therein; a feed device for feeding the nozzle with liquid; a device (13) for moving the nozzle vertically so that its free end (7a) enters the container (12); and a control unit for controlling the moving and feeding devices. It includes a rinsing sequence with the following steps: the lowering of the nozzle (7) into the rinsing position inside the container; the filling of the container (12) with liquid by the nozzle; and the draining of the container (12) activated by the control unit connected to the moving and feeding devices.

Abstract: Beverage preparation machine comprising a body (2), a movable steam nozzle (7) connected to the body by a moving device (13), a beverage preparation area (10) in which a cup can be placed, and a cleaning area in which is disposed a rinsing container (12). The moving device (13) moves the nozzle (7) between the preparation and cleaning areas. The machine also includes a cleaning product outlet (56) that can be moved between a dispensing position located in the cleaning area for dispensing product into the container (12), and a storage position located outside the cleaning area. The cleaning product outlet (56) is connected to the moving device (13) so as to place this outlet in the storage position when the nozzle (7) is in the cleaning area.

Abstract: Beverage preparation machine comprising a body 2 having a facade, a beverage preparation area (10) delimited on one side by the facade 3, in its upper part by beverage outlets, and in its lower part by a cup rest 8, and a movable steam nozzle 7 connected to the body by a moving device. The body includes a housing 3c defining a cleaning area 25, in which is disposed a rinsing container 12 having a top opening 22 and including a draining device 23, and in which the movable nozzle 7 is driven in a vertical movement by the moving device so that its free end 7a enters the container 12 through its top opening.
