Group E61

The E61 group first appeared in 1961, by Italian coffee ompany Faema and heralded in a new era of espresso makers. The E61 was invented by Ernesto Valente and he christened the group 'E' which is short for eclipse as there was a solar eclipse in 1961. The Faema E61 espresso coffee group was the first heat exchanger machine, meaning that fresh water was used for making espresso instead of boiler water

Maintaining the E61 group is easy to do, every so often the E61 lever needs to be lubricated with foodsafe grease. The brass parts have a lifespan and will need to be replaced over time. The mushroom can be become corroded and caked with minerals, the gicleur is best replaced along with the mushroom.

The E61 group can be upgraded with silicon group gaskets, which are easier to remove and install than the standard rubber baskets.Installing IMS E&B competition E61 shower screens can be help with dryer pucks and less channelling, while installing an E61 pressure gauge is an inexpensive tool to show extraction pressure.
