Choosing the Right BWT ULTRO Filter for Your Water

Water quality affects both coffee taste and equipment lifespan. The BWT ULTRO Series offers five filters, each designed to target specific water concerns. Use the table below to select the right filter for your needs:

Water Concern Recommended Filter Key Benefits
Chlorine, Odors & Sediment (5µm) Fibron (QX1524) Reduces chlorine, improves taste, and removes sediment for clean drinking water.
Chlorine, Odors, Sediment & Scale Prevention (5µm) Fibron + Scale (QX1524P) Protects coffee machines, ice makers, and beverage dispensers from scale buildup.
Chlorine, Odors, Sediment & Cysts (0.5µm) Fibron + Cyst (QX1594) Removes fine sediment, chlorine, and cysts for high-quality drinking water.
General Sediment Removal (5µm) Sediment (QX1124) Captures large particles and dirt in non-carbon applications.
Extra Fine Sediment Filtration (1µm) Sediment (QX1114) Removes ultra-fine particles for enhanced water clarity.

For coffee and espresso machines, the Fibron + Scale filter is ideal, as it prevents limescale buildup while improving water taste. If your priority is drinking water filtration, choose Fibron or Fibron + Cyst for superior chlorine and contaminant removal. If unsure, test your water for hardness, chlorine, and sediment to find the best fit.
