Clean Water = Excellent Coffee
Beginning with the Coffee Team Plus Capresso introduced the concept of a water filter in the water tank of their automatic coffee makers. If you use tap water the filter is a wonderful idea. It removes impurities and chlorine before the water is heated. Clean water and a clean coffee maker = great coffee.
The manufacturer's recommendation is to change filters every 6 weeks or 60 pots of coffee. I usually change them every two months or so. I imagine the effectiveness of the filter may depend on the quality of the water you use. I haven't had a problem yet.
Usage tip: Each filter is individually wrapped in plastic to keep it fresh until opened. When you open a filter first soak it in cold water for about 15 minutes. Then rinse it under running water for another minute or two until the water dripping from the filter is clear. If you still see black particles dripping from the filter run a pot of water through the coffee maker with the new filter inserted without coffee beans and discard the water afterward or use the water for plants (when it is cooled of course.)More detail ...
