water filter
We recommend adding an water filter, to limit limescale formation. This
will ensure a longer lifetime of your coffee machine and a better coffee aroma over
time.
Water represents an essential element for coffee brewing. Therefore, it is extremely
important that water be always filtered in a professional way.
The water filter prevents the formation of mineral deposits while
improving the water quality.
Installing the water filter
Immerse the water filter in cold water and in vertical position, with filter
opening side upwards. Press both sides of the filter gently to let any air bubbles
out.
