What is a PTFE hose and what it is used for
A PTFE hose is a durable tube that carries water or steam inside a coffee machine between the boiler, pump and other components. Thanks to its material, it withstands high temperatures and pressure, which is why it is used precisely in circuits where hot water or steam passes through.
Typical signs of wear
Over time, the hose can harden, crack or loosen at the joints. This shows up as water or steam leaking from the coffee machine, dripping under the appliance, a drop in pressure, or the appliance displaying an error related to pressure or temperature. In some cases, a damaged hose can even affect the taste of the coffee if air gets into the water or the circuit becomes leaky.
Why you shouldn't put off the replacement
A leaking or cracked hose increases the risk of a bigger fault, since escaping water or steam can damage the surrounding electronic or mechanical parts of the coffee machine. Timely replacement prevents bigger repairs and keeps the machine running smoothly.
How to choose the right hose
When choosing, it is important to consider the dimensions and length, which vary depending on the specific coffee machine model. Check compatibility with your machine in the table on the product page.
