Maintenance
How to look after your Agnese
A commercial machine with 1–3 groups, such as the Rocket Boxer, La Nuova Era Altea or Elektra, runs for many hours a day. Backflush each group with cleaning detergent at closing, clean the steam wands and the drain daily, and always run it on filtered water. Here is the schedule and the products we recommend.
Good to know about the Tower Agnese
The Agnese has automatic cleaning cycles for the brew groups. Run them daily with cleaning detergent to keep the groups free from coffee oil.
The machine has no tank and must be permanently installed with a water filter or water softener before the inlet.

Upgrades
A bottomless portafilter shows you instantly if your coffee is channelling. A spring-loaded tamper, a distribution tool and a precision basket give you more even extraction, shot after shot.
Water and filters
The right water protects your machine
The target is 2–4 °dH. Replace the cartridge according to its capacity, but at least every 12 months, and measure the hardness after the filter.
Can be plumbed in
Your Agnese has a rotary pump and can be connected directly to the mains water supply. We recommend BWT Bestmax with an installation kit.
