To get the best taste from your coffee and extend your appliance’s service life, we advise you to use only the Claris - Aqua
Filter System cartridge sold as an accessory.
It comprises a scale-removing substance and activated carbon that reduces chlorine, impurities, lead, copper, pesticides, etc.
that are present in the water. Minerals and trace elements will then be preserved.
