Know before you buy
This water filter is specifically designed for use with KitchenAid Fully Automatic Espresso Machine models KF6, KF7, and KF8.
You should replace the filter approximately every two months. If you use your machine heavily, replace it sooner if you have filtered 50 liters of water.
Not entirely. While the filter significantly reduces limescale buildup and extends the time between maintenance cycles, you will still need to descale your machine periodically to keep it in peak condition.
This filter is designed to reduce common water contaminants including chlorine, carbon, particulates, and lead, all of which can alter the flavor profile of your coffee.
