      Yes.   And then theres the seal and cleaning tablets and descaling liquid, and depreciation, and cartridges for the brita jug.

      But none of these running costs count when preparing submissions for funding or bench space.  Only the negligible electricity cost is shown so that you can say running costs were included.

        Yep,

        And getting back to the OP, its 25 clams of expendable or wear and tear item. I fail to see the question.

        Hey, recycle it, on the timetable as Graham mentioned...

        ...or just buy a new one...

        Chris

        ...machines cost - ongoing - Sunny or otherwise...

          Ok thanks guys for the advise. It wasnt a case of me being miserable and not wanting to spend the money. The reasoning was it needed to be replaced and if using filtered water negated the need to use the tank filter than why spend 25 clams if I didnt need to. Could buy $25 worth of beans instead.

            I would still buy the anti-calc filter for piece of mind. $25 is nothing if you want a machine that is well maintained and want it to last a long time. :-X

                when descaling machine, remove filter, as descal can damage the resin particles

                water filters reduce the amount of scale / hardness in the water, but unless you are using filters that cost $200, then that is all you are doing, is reducing

                6900/10 are very very suseptacle to scale problems
                as are all  thermoblock units

                most steaming/ temperature problems are associated with lack of descaling or not replacing calc filters

                i reccomend descaling a sunbeam at least every 3 months

                and no this isnt an add for selling more descaling tablets or anti calc filters

                So true...

                But next week we will get asked if a Filter is a Filter / Do I need to clean my machine... / Vinegar is good enough ;D

                Assumptions Kill.. CS search eng has the answers... Now; leave me alone, I am trying to sleep 8-)
