How long it lasts
Usually every 3 months (50 L / 90 days). The filter light is a reminder, not a water-quality sensor.
After replacing: Touchscreen models (Oracle Touch, Barista Touch) show a change-filter alert; confirm the replacement in the settings menu to reset the 90-day counter. Non-screen models use the date dial on the filter holder. See the Breville AU Barista Touch video.
Flow slows and taste drops off as the filter fills up. Changing on time is the whole point.
