Is a water filter needed for a Philips coffee machine?
Being the owner of a Philips coffee maker, you should pay special attention to the quality of the water poured into the tank. It is, of course, the most important ingredient in coffee, but few people pay attention to the fact that it must first pass through the entire system of the machine to finally reach the cup. Water with a high degree of hardness exposes the thermoblocks, pumps, hoses, valves and sensors to calcification and, consequently, failure. That's why using a filter in a Philips espresso machine is crucial.Which filter for a Philips coffee machine?
Even with regular decalcification of Philips espresso machines with professional products, we will not get rid of all the lime deposits from the machine if we do not use dedicated filters. That's why taking care of water quality in Philips espresso machines is so important. It prolongs the life of the machine and positively affects the taste of the coffee. Shopping on our website you will find original Philips filters, as well as Coffix replacements of the highest quality.How often should I replace the Philips filter?
We should replace the water filter in Philips coffee machines at least once a month. After 30 - 40 days after the first contact with water, the filter loses its properties. Using the filter for more than 40 days will be harmful to the espresso machine. The best thing to do then is to replace the filter, or at least remove it, and of course remember to decalcify it regularly. The use of the filter does not fully prevent the coffee machine from scaling. It only helps to reduce the hardness of the water.
