Rechargeable Water Softeners

As little as most people realize, water softeners should be an integral part of your espresso machine. Water has mineral content which can build up limescale inside your espresso machine. Water softeners installed upfront will reduce the number of service calls on your espresso machine - less parts will have limescale and your machine would require less descaling maintenance calls. However, it is important to remember that your water softener be recharged regularly and before first use. Below are links for two types of water softeners.
