Details:
This gasket is made from heat resistant silicone, which lasts longer, this makes a big difference in busy environment.
The internal groves and soft consistency makes for easy installation and removal and the light colour helps with to detect if there is a build up of coffee debris
If you notice that there's water leaking from the area above the portafilter, known as the group head, then your gasket is probably to blame.When changed your coffee cream will improve as you will have achieved the maximum extraction pressure of 9 bars. (The pressure will be constant as the filter basket has a full seal.)
Features:
- Better than rubber gaskets, since silicone doesn't have any smell or taste and are easy to change in and out.
- The light colour helps with to detect if there is a build up of coffee debris.
- Easy to install - just push on and lock with portafilter.
Gasket change
- Commercial replace every 6 months,
- Home replace every 12 months
The longer you leave it the more difficult it will be to remove them.The group seals become brittle over time due heat from the portafilter and with age.When removing the old one it will probably fall apart as it will be so brittle. We recommend that you always keep spare gaskets.
