Doesn't it stand to reason that if you start with better tasting water you'll end up with better tasting coffee? Not only do these filters purify your tap water, they also reduce lime buildup, consequently you won't need to go through a descaling, cleaning process as often.

Krups DuoFilters TwoPack:
Couldn't find what I needed elsewhere. Great price, good timing on shipping. Product is as described. Very pleased.
Beware of Mold on these units:

Really Improves the Taste:
My old Krups Coffee Maker died after 11 years and I had to replace it. At first I was angry I had to buy something in addition to coffee and filters for the new maker, but these duo filters do just what they say they will. I was pleasantly surprised, it makes the best coffee I've ever made at home. The town I live in has very hard water, but even still they will last 3 months, and are not that expensive.
Duofilters review:
When I use free trade naturally decaffinated freshly ground coffee beans and the Duofilter in my Krups coffeemaker, I get the smoothest most delicious cup of coffee available anywhere on the planet! It beats out any coffee served today at a gourmet coffee shop. I also found the best price for Duofilters here on Amazon.
