Accessories

The service life and coffee quality of a coffee machine with grinder depend directly on regular maintenance with the right accessories. For FRESH GROUND and FRESH MORE machines in a commercial environment — hotels, offices, restaurants — maintenance is a requirement, not an option. BRAVILOR BONAMAT accessories are designed to be compatible with specific machine models, ensuring optimal integration.

Types of accessories

Water filters are among the most important accessories for coffee machines. Filtered water prevents the build-up of limescale inside the machine — particularly important where water hardness varies by region.

Cleaning tablets are designed for regular cleaning of the coffee pathway, preventing the build-up of coffee oils and solid deposits. For BRAVILOR BONAMAT machines, the cleaning cycle is often programmed — the machine itself reminds users when cleaning is needed.

Cleaning solutions complement the use of tablets and are used for deeper regular cleaning. For FRESH MORE machines with milk or milk powder systems, solutions are especially important — milk components require thorough rinsing after each shift.

Why use BRAVILOR BONAMAT accessories

Genuine BRAVILOR BONAMAT accessories ensure guaranteed compatibility with FRESH GROUND and FRESH MORE machines.

Regular maintenance with the right accessories significantly extends the machine’s service life and delays the need for repairs. In intensive commercial use, machine wear occurs faster — regular maintenance is a long-term investment.

Maintenance planning

• Replace water filters regularly according to the manufacturer’s recommendations or water hardness
• Perform cleaning cycles with special tablets as indicated by the machine
• Schedule deep cleaning with solutions periodically or according to the manufacturer’s schedule

Water filters for FRESH GROUND and FRESH MORE machines

Coffee machines with grinders produce espresso from ground coffee, meaning more intensive water contact with the machine’s internal systems. The problem of limescale build-up is critical for these machines, as the grinders create additional dust that interacts with limescale deposits. Regular water filter replacement according to the manufacturer’s recommendations is a mandatory prerequisite for the longevity of FRESH GROUND and FRESH MORE machines. Water hardness varies by region — BHS advises on the most suitable filter capacity for specific water conditions across Europe.

Cleaning the coffee pathway with tablets

The coffee pathway of FRESH GROUND and FRESH MORE machines — grinders, coffee chute, group and espresso head — is subject to the build-up of coffee oils, which affects espresso flavour and machine mechanics. Cleaning tablets dissolve in hot water and effectively remove coffee oil deposits from the coffee pathway. For BRAVILOR BONAMAT automatic machines, the cleaning cycle is often programmed with a built-in reminder — the machine itself signals when cleaning is needed.

FRESH MORE milk system maintenance

FRESH MORE machines with integrated milk or milk powder systems for cappuccino and latte preparation require additional cleaning. Milk component residues in a warm environment create a risk of bacterial growth, which is a critical hygiene issue in commercial settings. Cleaning the milk pathway with special solutions must be done after each shift. BRAVILOR BONAMAT solutions for milk systems are formulated to be compatible with machine materials and provide effective disinfection without damage.

Accessory management for café chains

Café chains with multiple BRAVILOR BONAMAT coffee machines with grinders benefit from centralised accessory management. A single regular order can include filters and cleaning supplies for all machines in the chain, reducing administrative burden and ensuring consistent maintenance quality across all cafés.

Frequently asked questions

How often should the water filter be replaced for a FRESH GROUND machine?

Filter replacement frequency depends on water hardness and machine usage intensity — typically every 2–4 months under heavy use, longer for lower consumption. BRAVILOR BONAMAT machines often indicate the need for filter replacement automatically. BHS helps determine the optimal replacement schedule for a specific machine and water conditions.

Are cleaning tablets compatible with both models?

BRAVILOR BONAMAT cleaning tablets are compatible with both models — FRESH GROUND and FRESH MORE. Milk system cleaning solutions apply only to FRESH MORE machines with milk systems.
