Description:

This is a 3 spring kit from Shades of Coffee.

It will allow you to adjust the OPV pressure from 15 bars to 9 bars or lower.

Fits models made after 2015 for the EU or models after 2018 for the US, - you need to have OPV in the image above

Features

  • Springs are made with high-quality 304 Stainless Steel for long-lasting performance.
  • Easy to install - Requires only a 10mm wrench, Screw Driver, and 10 minutes of your time.
  • This spring will allows you to achieve the standard 9 Bar of pressure for optimal espresso extraction or lower for pressure profiling.

Spring pressures

  • The 9-bar spring is great for general use and is the "industry standard" espresso extraction pressure.  Most people will use this one.
  • The 6.5 bar spring is good for some espressos, and lower-pressure extractions are being used in many coffee shops now.  It's worth trying this one, as you may prefer the taste and mouthfeel that lower-pressure extractions produce.  Some careful installation of the spring and replacement of the floating valve seat may be required with this one, otherwise, you can find that steam pressure will leak out of the valve and reduce your steaming power.
  • The 5 bar spring is very low - and again it's great to try it - but this one is quite low pressure and can cause some challenges when you steam; as the steam pressure can escape from the OPV if it exceeds 5 bar.  Great for straight espresso or Americano lovers though.

 

💡 Before you buy - check that you have the PVC OPV- see the image above. Remove the lid from your espresso machine (the two small screws at the rear of the machine, within the black plastic lid) and confirm that your pump looks like the one shown above a black plastic valve - with 2 silicon pipes attached.

⚠️ Shades of coffee spent a lot of time researching this kit and have imitators selling springs, that don’t perform properly. They show images of a Classic with 9 bar on a static pressure test, which will be 8 bar when pouring. Our kits correctly show +1 bar on a static pressure test … so 9 bar spring shows 10 bar; 6.5 bar shoes 7.5 and 5 shows 6.
