Rancilio 'Epoca' One Group Reservoir Water Softener

Rancilio Epoca Water Softener Cartridge – One Group Reservoir

Genuine Rancilio mini water softener for one-group Epoca reservoir systems, protecting your boiler and internals from scale buildup. This is the current DVG-certified "ETO" version, #69000313, which replaced the older white #69000140 (~02/01/2017), both are functionally interchangeable.

SPECIFICATIONS

• 157 mm long
• Accepts 7 mm I.D. tubing (see R_1332 hose)

COMPATIBILITY

• Fits: Rancilio Epoca one-group reservoir
• Replaces: Rancilio #69000140 (superseded) and current #69000313

INSTALLATION

Simple DIY task, no tools required beyond releasing the tubing clamp.

PRO TIPS

• Before reinstalling, fully submerge and soak the softener for 5 minutes, then rinse, skipping the soak is the most common reason baristas think a "new" softener isn't working right away.
• Keep the cartridge fully submerged once reconnected; if it sits partially exposed to air in the reservoir it won't condition water evenly and scale protection suffers.
