Delonghi automatic espresso machine ESAM 5500 S need a water filter? If yes where can I buy one? Also what is the water filter order number?

No it does not. The machine has a water container you fill up with whatever water you like. You can use tap water or bottled water. When you first setup the machine you input the type of water you're going to use by specifying water "hardness" meaning the mineral and metal content in your water. Tap will have a high water hardness number (4) and bottled water (especially deionized water) will have a low water hardness number (1). The machine keeps track of how many coffees it makes and depending on how you set up the water hardness it tells you when you have to descale it. The descale process is simply adding descaling solution to a full container of water and run the descale program. I hope that answers your question!!

There is no water filter on the machine. The water can be filtered prior to pouring into the machine's water reservoir.

It does not come with one, via Amazon. My coffee maker did not work so I returned it to the MFG. Actually I had to return 3 of them, until the 4th one they sent me finally worked. The 4th machine did come with a filter.

Hi, This model goes fine with the Phillips Senseo type HD 7854.. It is a entry level espresso maker.The good thing is that you can use the coffee you want and it results in a cheaper experience, by far..

Well we still have one filter and the package that it came in. There is no part number or reference number. But the package reads "Mr. COFFEE Water Filter Replacement Disks" for 8, 10, 12 and 14 cup coffeemaker models. The barcode number for the 4-pack is 0-72179-23132-5

I found out after I received the coffee maker that the gold filter is not included with refurbished units. You can get one at Bed bath and beyond for about $10. you can order it on Amazon, maybe for less.

I'm wondering the same thing. I cannot find any replacement filters that specifically state they are for this model. It's discouraging that the Fabreze website does not even show that they carry these little filter machines anymore. I would suggest you do not buy the unit until you get an answer. I'm going to be contacting the Fabreze company about this matter. Maybe you should do the same. Hopefully, they'll respond.

Hi Greg, you will need to contact the distributor of the ROK Espresso, a company called Importika. You can email them at: rokwarranty@importika.com. Just tell them who you purchased it from and the purchase date, and they will take care of you.

You could see if there is a model number on the bottom and look it up on their website. Another idea would be to take it to a nice kitchen store that sells the espresso maker and see which one it compares closest to.

Yes, the filter does need to be replaced, however, not often.Order filters through DeLonghi. I have not need to replace mine yet and I've used the machine approximately 10 times.

These machines don't work the same as an americano coffee machine. You just need to make sure there is always water inside, it doesn't really matter how much.It all depends on how strong you want your coffee. It's not about the amount of Water but the amount of coffee and how long you want your espresso. The machine is very good quality/price, then is all about how good a "Barista" are you... http://www.rd.com/slideshows/13-things-baristas-wont-tell-you/#slideshow=slide3

No there is no water filter. I looked through the manual that came with mine and took a look at my unit and I did not locate any sort of water filter. Depending on what type of problem you are having you can take it to a service center to see if they could fix it, I looked on Mr. Coffee's website and there are 5 service centers in Texas (I got that state from your profile). I hope this helps.

The espresso portion uses a single shot or double shot metal filter. But the machine is junk, broke 60 days after i bought it. Dont waste your $.
