I would just use a mixture of 1/4 water to 3/4 parts white vinegar. Run this through and then follow up with 2 plain water flushes. This will dissolve the deposits and it won't hurt you if any is left in the system.
The cleaning program is different from the descaling program.
The machine is now wanting you to descale the machine. Get some descaling powder or tablets, desolve in water and let the machine run through the descale program.
You seem to have been thorough; I found no US source for the tablets.
When searching google.de and using the German name for these, 'Bosch reinigungstabletten' I got almost 20,000 hits in just about every European language.
They are available from numerous stores there at prices ranging from 7 to 12 Euros (today: 1 Euro=~ $1.60) for a package of 10 plus shipping.
Considering the cost of the machine, this is an inexcusable omission by Bosch and I recommend contacting them directly and demanding they be stocked in the US or Canada.
I just ordered everything I needed for my Bosch Benvenuto B20 from wholelattelove.com. It was easier than my previous purchase from Bosch to find knowledgeable people. I purchased Super Auto Cleaning Tabs, Cleancaf by Urnex, and Claris water filters online. Just call them if you're not sure what to buy.
