Silicone hose with fabric 120 mm for DeLonghi coffee machines

What is the fabric hose in a coffee machine

The fabric (textile) hose carries water or steam between individual parts of the coffee machine, for example between the boiler, pump, flow heater and brewing unit. The outer fabric layer increases the hose's resistance to heat, pressure and mechanical stress when bending, which is especially important in places with limited space inside the appliance.

When the part stops doing its job

Over time, the hose can lose flexibility, crack or come loose at the joints. This shows up as water leaking inside the coffee machine, dripping under the appliance, a drop in pressure when preparing coffee or steam, or an error message related to pressure or water flow. Sometimes a change in coffee taste can also be noticed if impurities get into the water through the damaged material.

Why replace this part in time

A damaged hose can cause an internal water leak, which gradually damages the electronics or other components of the coffee machine. Timely replacement prevents bigger faults and restores reliable operation of the water or steam circuit.

How to choose the right part

When choosing, the diameter and length of the hose are particularly important, as these vary between models. Check the exact dimensions and compatibility in the product table so the part fits exactly in place of the original hose.
