CIRCO brewer Optional parts 1.2.1 Milk unit The Sprso is a bean-to-cup espresso machine. As standard the Sprso does not offer milk-based beverages such as cappuccino. However, you can connect a milk unit/cooler to the Sprso. If you connect a milk unit to the Sprso you can offer five additional beverages: caffè latte, espresso macchiato, cappuccino, latte macchiato and hot milk foam. How to install the milk unit to the Sprso is described in section “10.5 Installation a milk unit” on page 88. 1.2.2 Water filter The water tank of the Sprso can be fitted with a water filter. Water filters are purification filter systems that remove minerals which make water hard and cause scale. We recommend customers to use a water filter. A water filter improves the quality of your beverage and decreases lime scale therewith optimizing the performance of the Sprso. How to fit the water filter into the Sprso is described in section “10.3 Installation of a water filter” on page 85.

    Please note ► If you use the Sprso normally the water filter lasts for a certain amount of time. This amount of time is mentioned in the manual of the water filter. If you do not use the Sprso whilst the water filter is installed this will decrease the lifespan of the water filter.

    “7.1.6 Water filter” on page 35. 10.3.1c  10.3.2 External water filter If an external water filter is chosen, it is recommended that this is installed/replaced by an installer.
