removing inorganic substances. It does not, however, remove organic
substances, such as bacteria.
Reverse Osmosis with Blend-Back Valve (or Remineralized RO): process by
which water is forced through a semi-permeable membrane with selective pore
sizes at high pressure, then blended with the appropriate amount of desired
minerals.
Reverse osmosis may be a good solution for water in the range of 6-9 grains
of hardness, but is mandatory for water above 9 grains. When blending
minerals with the filtered water, target a TDS (total dissolved solids) value of
of 75-125 ppm. Experiment with various TDS levels to determine what is
ideal.
IMPORTANT: All Slayer espresso machines need to be connected to a carbon water
filter to remove chlorine, sediments, odor, and undesirable tastes from the water.
This requirement is in addition to any other necessary water filtration systems.
Filtration requirements may vary seasonally. Water should be tested during each
season to determine the best filtration plan. Once a filtration method has been
selected, take note of the filter’s peak capabilities. Contact the equipment vendor to
inquire about the life expectancy of the filters, then schedule replacement and re-
installation accordingly.
Every time a new water filter is installed, thoroughly rinse the filter before attaching
it to your machine or pump. Run water from the supply line through the filter and
down a drain for at least 2 minutes. Skipping this step will damage your machine.
Damage to or failure of your machine due to inadequately treated water is not
covered under warranty.!
