- Water tank: use only cold, still drinking water, filled between the MIN and MAX marks — never put milk or oil in this tank; rinse before first use and empty if the machine will not be used for a long time.
- Milk system: rinse and clean after every use with the built-in cleaning programme; the milk container and its lid are dishwasher-safe.
- Containers and trays: empty the used capsule container (up to 7 capsules) as soon as it is full; wash the drip tray with water and dry with a soft cloth.
- Flushing: with no capsule inserted and a container under the spout, press button C (long drinks / water / flushing) to rinse the machine — do this whenever you switch between coffee and long drinks, and regularly.
- Descaling: every 3 months or after approximately 300 capsules, using the Delta Q descaling kit and following its safety instructions. Water with a low mineral content reduces the frequency of descaling.
- Exterior and indicator lights: wipe surfaces with a damp cloth, never immerse the machine in water, and do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents; if all four brewing indicator lights turn red, switch the machine off (hold buttons B and C for more than 3 seconds), wait 2 minutes, then switch it back on — if this does not resolve the problem, contact customer service.

Frequently asked questions
Which capsules can you use with the Mini MilkQool?
All Delta Q format capsules, and no others: the manual states that the machine is designed to brew drinks using Delta Q capsules. For a cappuccino or café crème, you use a coffee capsule — for example Qonvictus N°5, Qharacter N°9, Qalidus N°10 or MythiQ N°15 — and the milk comes from the machine's container. The full range, from the intensities of Qonvictus N°5 to Uniq N°16, from decaffeinated coffees to single origins, is available in the Delta Q capsule range.
Which drinks does the Mini MilkQool make, and in what volumes?
Four buttons and a selector:
- Espresso: approximately 30 ml.
- Lungo: approximately 45 ml.
- Long drinks: approximately 180 ml, or hot water; the same button is also used for flushing.
- Milk drink: a cappuccino or a café crème depending on the selector position, approximately 190 ml.
These are the factory-set volumes: each button can be programmed, and for milk drinks the machine stores the coffee and milk quantities separately.
How do you make a cappuccino or café crème, and which milk should you use?
Pour the milk into the container (level 1 corresponds to one glass, level 2 to two), close the lid, open the milk system door and connect the container to it. Raise the lever, insert a Delta Q coffee capsule and lower the lever, place a cup with a capacity greater than 190 ml under the spout, set the selector to Cappuccino or Café crème, then press button D.
For a cappuccino, milk froth is dispensed first, followed by coffee; for a café crème, coffee is dispensed first, followed by milk. For consistent froth, Delta Q recommends semi-skimmed milk at fridge temperature; the official machine presentation also mentions plant-based milk. Rinse the milk container before using it again.
How do you clean the Mini MilkQool's milk system?
Delta Q requires you to rinse and clean the milk system after every use, and the machine does this automatically with its built-in programme:
- place a large glass (with a capacity greater than 190 ml) under the spout;
- fill the milk container with drinking water up to level 2, close the lid and connect it to the milk system;
- set the selector to Maintenance (button D and the selector indicator light turn blue), then press button D: hot water and steam are dispensed for approximately 25 seconds, followed by steam alone for approximately 25 seconds, and the machine stops.
The milk container and its lid can also be washed in the dishwasher; to wash them by hand, separate the parts, soak them for a few minutes in hot water with detergent, rinse with cold water and wipe dry, along with the base of the milk system compartment.
Mini MilkQool, Mini Qool or ICONIQ: which Delta Q machine should you choose?
The Delta Q machines sold at Cafemalin all take the same capsules and differ in how they are used:
- Mini MilkQool (this product page) — the machine with an integrated milk container: one-touch cappuccino and café crème, as well as espresso and lungo. 15,9 cm wide, 0,6 L water tank, container for 7 used capsules.
- Mini Qool — the smallest machine in the Delta Q range: 9,5 cm wide, for espresso, lungo or herbal tea, with milk heated and frothed separately. Available in red, grey and yellow, and in a bundle with 120 capsules.
- ICONIQ — a touchscreen machine with programmable volumes: 12,2 cm wide, 0,8 L tank, container for 10 used capsules. Available with 180 capsules.
In summary: milk drinks without a separate frother → Mini MilkQool; a compact machine for espresso → Mini Qool; a touchscreen and programmable volumes → ICONIQ.
Does the Mini MilkQool accept Nespresso capsules?
No. The Mini MilkQool only takes Delta Q format capsules: Nespresso, Dolce Gusto and Lavazza capsules do not fit. View all Delta Q capsules.
