Jura WE8 - Filter replacement

Regular replacement of the filter in the Jura WE8 espresso machine is essential if you want the perfect taste of coffee and a long life of the machine. Filtered water not only enhances the aroma of the drink, but also significantly reduces the deposition of scale, which affects the trouble-free operation of the machine.
In our devices we use a filter COFFIX CF201 - high quality replacement as Jura Claris Pro. Filter COFFIX CF201 works perfectly in all Jura professional espresso machines, providing effective protection and excellent taste for every cup.
