Complete your Set-Up with the BWT Bestprotect Filter Package
Please Note: If your water's total hardness is double its alkalinity or higher, we recommend using the BWT Bestprotect filter cartridge with your espresso machine.
Bundled for your convenience, the BWT Bestprotect Filter Package w/Besthead FLEX has everything you need to keep your espresso tasting great and to protect your machine from scale buildup. The new Besthead FLEX features an updated mounting bracket for greater compatibility with different types of screws, an integrated flush valve, and the ability to swap out the included fittings for others produced by BWT. Thanks to the Besthead FLEX and a pair of included water lines, BWT's water filtration system is incredibly easy to install and to swap out old cartridges once they've been used up.
The BWT Bestprotect filter solution goes a long way to ensure your machine lasts longer and produces noticeably better espresso. This 5-stage filtration system not only prevents the formation of unwanted minerals like limescale and gypsum, but also ensures a consistently high pH value to minimize the risk of corrosion. This protects your machine from the buildup of excess deposits and prevents problems on stainless steel parts.
Additionally, Bestprotect utilizes activated charcoal fleece to deliver crystal-clear water with characteristics conducive to producing high-quality hot beverages. It is also well suited for generating steam in combination steamers, steam cookers and ovens.
Each Bestprotect filter cartridge is easy to install thanks to the incorporation of the universal BWT Besthead FLEX filter head, as well as an easy-to-handle and space-saving design.
Depending on the intended environment for the filter, the cartridges are available in different sizes.
- S - Filters up to 855 Liters at bypass setting 3 with 49.98 ppm / 7 °DTH (degrees total hardness)
- V - Filters up to 2,140 Liters at bypass setting 3 with 49.98 ppm / 7 °DTH (degrees total hardness)
- XL - Filters up to 5,125 Liters at by pass setting 3 with 49.98 ppm / 7 °DTH (degrees total hardness)
- 2XL - Filters up to 8,570 Liters at by pass setting 3 with 49.98 ppm / 7 °DTH (degrees total hardness)
Please Note: The total capacity of your filter will vary based on the hardness of your water and the blend setting selected with the filter head.
The filter head can be adjusted to one of several blend settings based on the hardness of your water. The blend settings adjust the amount of water run through the ion exchange in ratios of 0/100, 10/90, 25/75, and 40/60. When switching out filter cartridges, the filter head will cut the flow of water to prevent leaks.
Includes 2 braided 3/8" hoses with compression fittings that easily connect to prosumer espresso machines and home water lines.
