What water does this machine require?
Nuova Simonelli hasn't published a limit our check can use for this machine yet, so the check can't give it a result. Whatever the maker does say is quoted below.
Shown, but not used to decide (9)
- Total hardness, at most 3 gpg (51.4 mg/L as CaCO3, our conversion). Written for another model or range. We're verifying whether it applies to this machine; until then it doesn't decide. The maker's words for Total hardness.
- Total hardness, at most 3 gpg (51.4 mg/L as CaCO3, our conversion). Written for another model or range. We're verifying whether it applies to this machine; until then it doesn't decide. The maker's words for Total hardness.
- Total hardness, 50–60 ppm (our conversion of the maker's 5–6 °fH). Written for another model or range. We're verifying whether it applies to this machine; until then it doesn't decide. The maker's words for Total hardness.
- Total dissolved solids (TDS), 50–250 ppm. Written for another model or range. We're verifying whether it applies to this machine; until then it doesn't decide. The maker's words for Total dissolved solids (TDS).
- Total alkalinity, 10–150 ppm. Written for another model or range. We're verifying whether it applies to this machine; until then it doesn't decide. The maker's words for Total alkalinity.
- Total chlorine, below 0.5 mg/L. Our reading of the maker's words is being checked again; until then it doesn't decide. The maker's words for Total chlorine.

The maker's water guidance
From Nuova Simonelli's guidance for Oscar II manual and spec sheet.
Hardness, highest: up to 50 ppm
“Water hardness cannot exceed 3gpg or 50 ppm.”
Softened water: up to 3 gpg
“If water hardness exceeds 3gpg a water softener must be installed.”
Water type
“Monitoring of water recipe to keep it within required levels and maintenance of filtration system is the user's responsibility.”
Total hardness: 5–6 °fH
“Failing to meet and maintain water at the following levels will void the entire warranty: • Total hardness 50-60 ppm (parts per million) (5-6 French degrees (°F));”
The maker's own guidance conflicts on this point. We show each line and pick none.
Total dissolved solids (TDS): 50–250 ppm
“TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) level between 50 - 250 ppm;”
Total alkalinity: 10–150 ppm
“Alkalinity level between 10 - 150 ppm;”
Total chlorine: up to 0.5 mg/L
“Chlorine level less than 0.50 mg/l;”
pH: 6.5–8.5
“Ph level between 6.5 and 8.5.”
Plumbed-in water: 2–4 bar
“Water line pressure between 2 - 4 bar and water to be cold;”
Plumbed-in water: at least 200 l/hr
“Min flow rate: 200 l/hr;”
Water filter: up to 1 micron
“Filtration level below 1.0 micron;”
Hardness, highest: up to 3 gpg
“Water hardness cannot exceed 3gpg or 50 ppm.”
Softened water: up to 3 gpg
“If water hardness exceeds 3gpg a water softener must be installed.”
