  • How do I clean or descale the Steam Tank for my Baby Brezza One Step Baby Food Maker or Food Maker Deluxe?
    • We recommend regular cleaning of the Steam Tank to prevent damage to the machine from mineral deposits. The frequency of cleaning will depend on the type of water you are using and how much mineral deposit build up forms. Always unplug before cleaning. Put 1/3 cup white vinegar and 1/3 cup distilled Water in machine and let sit overnight. Pour out vinegar and water solution (refer to user manual for proper emptying instructions). Refill Steam Tank with purified water, plug in machine and run “Steam” cycle for 10 minutes. Let Steam Tank cool and scrub with a cleaning brush if necessary. Rinse with purified water to eliminate any remaining vinegar taste. Empty tank and fill with clean water before cooking.

  • How do I know which Measuring Insert or Measuring Wheel Setting to use?
    • For a complete list of Formula Powders and their correct Measuring Inserts or Measuring Wheel Settings, click here. If your powder is not listed, please contact Baby Brezza Customer Service for assistance.
  • My Baby Brezza Formula Pro is dispensing more formula than indicated on the ounce selector on the control panel. Why?
    • The ounce size on the Formula Pro control panel indicates water volume only. When powder is added to the water, the volume is increased, just like when you make a bottle by hand. The final volume of mixed formula is expected to be a little over the ounce amount indicated on the control panel. If the amount of formula is significantly higher than the ounces you are expecting, please contact us.
  • My Baby Brezza Formula Pro is dispensing less formula than indicated on the control panel. Why?
    • Clean the Funnel to make sure formula powder isn’t clogging the machine. Contact customer service if the problem persists.
  • How do I prevent mold from growing in the Baby Brezza Formula Pro?
    • As with any food preparation product or food storage container, proper maintenance and cleaning is required to make sure that your Baby Brezza Formula Pro stays clean. In addition to the regular cleaning recommended in the instruction manual, we recommend that care be taken when pouring formula powder into the powder container. After pouring powder into the container, check to make sure that no powder has spilled in the area next to the water tank, and clean any excess powder with a damp cloth. Also make sure that all parts of the powder container are completely dry before assembly. Mold should not grow in Formula Pro when properly cleaned and dried.

  • Do I need to clean the Baby Brezza Formula Pro/Formula Pro Advanced after every 4th bottle?
    • Yes it’s very important to clean the machine after every 4th bottle or when the clean funnel indicator light turns on. Unfortunately, formula can build up on the funnel during mixing because formula by nature likes to clump with water. If the formula builds up too much, it can affect how much formula drops from the powder container into the mixing funnel, affecting the machine’s accuracy. By removing the funnel after every 4th bottle and wiping the underside of the formula container, you can clean any formula build-up and ensure the machine works accurately. One suggestion to make cleaning easier is to purchase a spare funnel. That way, after every 4th bottle, you can remove the funnel that needs to be cleaned and insert your spare funnel that’s clean. Click here to shop for a spare funnel for the Baby Brezza Formula Pro Advanced.
