1.4 Cold water dispensing (optional) OptiFresh has a built-in cold water option + special base cabinet with built-in cooling unit. When dispensing a cold-water recipe, inlet valve DV6 opens (fig. 1-21) and allows water to flow from the mains to the cooling unit cooling coil (fig.1-20).
1.6 Evaporation extractor system Evaporation released during mixing is largely absorbed by the evaporation extractor ring (fig. 1-18) and sucked into the machine via the filter cassette (fig. 1-14). The evaporation and ingredient residue are absorbed by the filter. The filter (fig. 1-14) can be easily reached (for cleaning purposes) by dismantling the mixer unit (fig.
1.7.1 Adjustment If a leak occurs between the brewer unit and the permanent filter the tensile force of the brewer needs to be increased. The tensile force of the brewer should be set so that no water is able to leak between the brewer unit (fig. 3-1) and the permanent filter (fig.
