To optimize the taste of your coffee and the lifetime of your machine, we recommend you to use the Claris - Aqua Filter
System cartridge enclosed with this machine. The filter system consists of an anti-scale substance and active carbon which
reduces the chlorine, impurities, lead, copper and pesticides that may be present in the water. The minerals and trace ele-
ments in the water, however, are preserved.
