⚡ At a Glance
- • Brewing Quality: Cleaner water reduces limescale and heavy metals, enhancing coffee flavour
- • Best for: Home baristas using Sage or Breville machines seeking better-tasting coffee
- • Not ideal for: Users who require model-specific manufacturer-branded filters for warranty reasons
Activated carbon and ion-exchange resin reduce limescale and heavy metals. Designed to fit a wide range of Sage and Breville machines listed by the manufacturer.
Clearer Coffee Flavour – with activated carbon and ion-exchange resin
High-grade activated carbon and ion-exchange resin target minerals and heavy metals such as calcium, magnesium, lead and copper to reduce their presence in water. The filtration media traps scale-forming particles and impurities before they reach the boiler and brew circuit.
Cleaner, less mineral-heavy water helps espresso and drip brews taste cleaner and more balanced. Home machines experience fewer off-flavours that come from mineral and metal contaminants.
Reduced Scale Build-up – thanks to removal of limescale-forming minerals
By lowering calcium and magnesium levels, the filter limits the formation of limescale inside boilers and pipes. Less scale means heating elements and internal pathways stay cleaner for longer.
Reduced descaling frequency and gentler strain on internal parts extend effective working life of key components. Maintenance becomes easier for regular users.
Simple Maintenance Routine – with soak-before-use and clear replacement guidance
Filters should be soaked in water for five minutes before first use to remove trapped air, and replacement is recommended every three months or after 100 litres, depending on local water quality.
Quick installation and a three-filter pack make regular swaps straightforward for busy kitchens. Keeping a spare filter on hand ensures continuous filtration without downtime.
