Coffee&Tea
- Limescale protection granules
- Soft water for coffee + tea
The ‘coffee&tea’ drinking water filter provides water that is ideal for coffee and tea lovers. We recommend this drinking water filter for very hard water. In addition to filtering the water, it also gently reduces the limescale content. This allows the flavours to develop fully. It also protects machines.
The integrated coconut stage can also adsorb/reduce additional unwanted substances from the water.

Filtration of drinking water is advisable
The treatment and monitoring of drinking water, our most important foodstuff, is carried out in accordance with strict guidelines. Consumers can be sure that tap water is free of harmful substances within the specified limits.
Nevertheless, drinking water may contain substances that you would not want to consume, even in the smallest quantities. To remove these components, drinking water should be filtered. However, it is practically impossible to remove all pollutants completely. The aim must therefore be to filter out the really relevant contaminants efficiently, cost-effectively and without any noticeable impact on everyday usability. This is possible with our filter.
The biggest problem for drinking water begins in the home. Rust in pipes, copper or plastic pipes, plasticisers and plastic leaching from seals, contact corrosion in screw connections, biological contamination from standing water, fittings made of heavy metal alloys, etc. All these factors and many more can contaminate our drinking water to a high degree.
Our drinking water filter is extremely effective against these contaminants. Unlike osmotic processes, the mineral content and taste of the water are preserved. The water pressure is only reduced insignificantly.
No filter breakage possible
Our filter contains a porous carbon solid. The water is passed through the filter body and the substances it carries are trapped on the activated carbon surface. The larger the molecules (such as medication residues), the easier it is for them to bind to the filter material. Once the filter is saturated, the water flow decreases. This is a sure sign that the filter needs to be replaced.
Many filters on the market use free-floating plastic polymers as filter material. On the one hand, we reject the use of plastics, and on the other hand, free filter material poses the risk of uncontrolled filter breakage. So-called cavities can form in the filter material. If these ‘passages’ become clogged over time, a sudden breakthrough can occur. The deposits are then released into the water all at once, with the corresponding consequences.
