Do I Need To Buy A New Water Filter For The Water Compartment, Or Just Clean It?
Do I need to buy a new water filter for the water compartment of this coffemaker, or just clean it. I know how to clean the coffee pot and coffee filter but am not sure if the filter used to clean the water that goes into the coffee maker from the water tank needs to be cleaned or purchased new after making a certain number of pots of coffee. Thanks!
