What are the automatic machine rinsing cycles on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
Rinsing the machine is not only important for hygienic reasons but also to maintain optimal machine performance. There are 3 different automatic rinsing cycles:
Daily rinsing on start-up
Once per day, at machine start up, the machine automatically performs a rinsing cycle (200 mL / 6.76 fl fl oz) through the coffee and hot water outlets.
Rinsing after exiting a power-saving mode
Every time the machine exits a power saving mode, a rinsing cycle (40 mL / 1.3 fl oz) is automatically performed to clean the coffee and hot water fluid lines and reach the optimal temperature for the next beverage preparation.
Periodic rinsing
If the machine does not enter a power-saving mode after 130 minutes (i.e. the machine is kept in ready mode by people passing by), a rinsing cycle (70 mL/ 2.4 fl oz) is automatically performed to keep the coffee fluid line at the optimal temperature. This rinsing cycle can be deactivated (setup menu > periodic rinsing).
Milk system automatic rinsing
To maintain hygiene and performance of the milk system throughout the day, the machine automatically performs a short rinsing cycle at the beginning and end of milk recipe preparations:
- Prior to the milk recipe preparation, the machine performs a short rinsing cycle (15 mL / 0.5 fl oz). The rinsing water is directly flushed into the drip tray.
- Just before the milk recipe preparation finishes, the milk in the milk line is flushed out with water to rinse the line. This process generates a very small amount of rinsing water (5 mL / 0.17 fl oz) that runs through the milk outlet.
Note about milk system rinsing:
- If the user manually stops a milk recipe preparation by pressing (X) on the touch control panel, the machine will automatically perform a rinsing cycle prior to stopping.
- For short milk recipes such as cortado or espresso macchiato, there is no rinsing cycle at the end of the preparation. In this case, if no other milk recipes are requested within 10 minutes, a short rinsing cycle is automatically performed through the milk outlet.
How does the proximity sensor work on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
Interaction with the Momento machine starts even before you touch the touch control panel, thus offering an intuitive new way to welcome you to the world of Nespresso Momento.
The machine is equipped with a proximity sensor that perceives movement in front of the machine. The proximity sensor can differentiate two interacting zones: the first zone (“far field”) can recognise movement at a distance of approximately 4 meters / 13 feet, and the other zone (“near field”) at a distance of approximately 1 meter / 3.3 feet from the machine. The proximity sensor function can be deactivated (technician menu) when the machine placement requires it, without compromising the intuitive machine interaction.
What are the power-saving modes on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
The machine is equipped with 2 power-saving modes that can be customized to save energy (setup menu > set energy-saving modes).
Standby mode
The machine enters Standby mode if unused or if its sensors do not detect any movement over 120 min (Factory settings). The time delay for Standby mode can be set between 10 and 480 minutes of inactivity.
Deep sleep mode
The machine enters Deep sleep mode after having been in standby over 120 min (Factory settings). The time delay for Deep sleep mode can be set between 10 and 480 minutes. The machine always enters Standby mode before switching to Deep sleep mode.

How do I descale the coffee module on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
In case the “clean” and “descale” symbols appear in red at the same time, proceed first to the cleaning procedure and then to the descaling procedure.
The water tank shows different descaling marks. Refer to bottom marking when descaling the coffee system. Refer to the higher marking when descaling the milk system.
If the machine is equipped with a water filter, always remove it before descaling.
Coffee and milk modules are descaled using two separated processes. When one of the descaling processes is required, the screen will inform you of the expected delay until the other descaling process is required.
To secure machine lifetime and consistent coffee quality day after day, the use of the machine will be blocked after 30 days of the descaling alerts.
Material needed:
- cleaning tank
- waste water container
- 2 bags of Nespresso liquid descaler
- 1 L / 33.81 fl oz of water
The procedure will last about 15 minutes. For descaling, use Nespresso liquid descaler. Never use vinegar.
1. When the “descale” symbol appears in red, the machine should be descaled. Tap on the red descaling symbol. The machine will indicate that it is requesting a milk module descaling. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Alternatively, the maintenance menu can be entered to start the descaling procedure.
How do I descale the milk module on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
To secure machine lifetime and consistent coffee quality day after day, the use of the machine will be blocked after 30 days of the descaling alerts.
Material needed:
- cleaning tank
- waste water container
- 4 bags of Nespresso liquid descaler
- 2 L / 67.62 fl oz of water
The procedure will last about 60 minutes. For descaling, use Nespresso liquid descaler. Never use vinegar.
1. When the “descale” symbol appears in red, the machine should be descaled. Tap on the red descaling symbol. The machine will indicate that it is requesting a coffee module descaling. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Alternatively, the maintenance menu can be entered to start the descaling procedure.
What are the descaling intervals (with/without water filter) and water filter exchange on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
To secure in-cup quality day after day, machine performance and longevity, the machine descaling concept includes two stages:
Recommended stage (abort possible)
Mandatory stage (abort not possible)
Once the descaling threshold is reached, the descaling symbol is displayed on the machine screen and indicates that the machine has entered the recommended descaling stage. The machine is not blocked. This stage lasts 15 days. If descaling is not performed during the recommended period, the machine enters the mandatory stage and becomes blocked. The only way to unblock it is to perform a descaling.
Note: 7 days before the recommended stage starts, the descaling symbol starts blinking. The same principle applies for both coffee module and milk module descaling.

How do I remove and reinsert the water tank on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
Every time the water tank is removed and reinserted again, air bubbles can be pushed in the fluid line, thus potentially impacting the performance of the pump and consequently impacting the overall machine performance or the in-cup volume stability. To correct it, an automatic process is implemented once the water tank is reinserted in the machine.
What is the yearly maintenance procedure for the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
The milk system requires a mandatory yearly maintenance (please refer to the service package associated with the machines). Similarly to the descaling concept, the yearly maintenance threshold follows both recommended and mandatory stages:
- The recommended stage last 60 days (the maintenance required symbol is indicated on the machine screen)
- After the 60 days, if the yearly maintenance is not performed, the machine enters the mandatory stage.
10 days before the mandatory stage starts, the maintenance required symbol blinks.
When the mandatory phase is reached, the machine does not block. Beverages are always possible, but the warranty is void.
Recommended (abort possible)
milk module preventive maintenance required
milk module maintenance required before: [date]

What are the benefits of the machine connectivity for the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
Thanks to the Remote Software Update capability (RSU), customers keep up with the latest machine functionalities and improvements. In case of machine malfunction, the technical team can troubleshoot the machine from a distance. Machine settings can be changed remotely.
How does the Remote Software Update (RSU) process work on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
RSU preferentially occurs when the machine goes in deep sleep mode (i.e. overnight). The process can take up to 1 h 30 min, depending on the machine model, and therefore, in this mode, it’s unlikely that we impact our customers’ daily operation. Customers can set their preferred time period for any software update to happen.
There is only one golden rule: The machine always has to be ON. If our customers switch off their machine at night, the machine cannot be updated. Our logic is not to “force” the RSU when the machine is in daily mode operation, which would require much more attention to avoid our customers’ dissatisfaction.
Please note that the machine doesn’t have WiFi.
How do I set a preferred schedule for remote software updates on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
The default value is defined schedule: 23 h – 5 h and can be changed.
Note: Minimum of 2 h between starting and ending time. The scheduled range indicates when the remote software update starts. It doesn’t consider the software upgrading process itself.
What does the “Any time” option for remote software updates mean on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
When any time is selected, the RSU starts automatically the next time the machine checks for an update. In case you want to force the remote software to start, make sure the any time option is selected, then power the machine off and on again. The remote software update will start within approximately 10 minutes.
How do I update the software for my NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
If your machine is eligible to be connected (telemetry available in your country and modem correctly connected and under valid contract), we provide remote software updates (preferred update method). You do not have to do anything except to keep the machine switched on. The software update will happen as soon as Schedule start time is reached (refer to set schedule menu option described above). The process can take up to 1 h 30 min, depending on the machine model, and therefore in this mode, it’s unlikely that we impact your daily operation.
A software update via SD card is possible too, but this requires the intervention of a Nespresso trained technician representative.
How can I see the software version on the NESPRESSO PROFESSIONAL MOMENTO 120?
1. Tap on “settings” symbol to access settings menu.
2. Select “maintenance menu”. Enter your access code: if you haven’t changed it during the initial machine setup, the access code is 8888. Navigate the menu options until you reach “display the S/N and software”.
