Joe Frex Portafilter pressure gauge
💡New for 2022 - Lighter and smaller
Details:
This is a miniture gauge, used to check your espresso machine's pump pressure
Knowing the extract pressure will allow you to adjust the pump to give you 9 bars of pump pressure.
Over time your pump pressure fades but when you can adjust the pump you can restore the lost coffee crema.
Measures 0-16 bar.
Comes with gauge spout already attached for easy installation.

Adaptor: 9mm male thread x 3/8'' female thread fitting
Fits: Commercial-grade portafilters with 3/8" threaded spout.⚠️Check spout 1st - make sure it is threaded and can be removed.
How to use the portafilter pressure gauge:

- Place portafilter into the group as you would normally do.
- Turn on the coffee button and watch the pressure build up on the gauge
