Product highlights
- Pesado's High Diffusion Espresso Shower Screen is a 304 stainless steel group upgrade that distributes water evenly across the coffee puck to reduce channelling.
- Eighteen precision-cut channels reach the basket wall and the version 2.0 Breville screens add a 0.2mm contact mesh that sits directly on the coffee bed.
- Six machine-specific versions cover E61, La Marzocco, Nuova Simonelli, Victoria Arduino, Gaggia and both Breville group sizes, each supplied with its mounting hardware.
Every shot starts at the shower screen and the Pesado High Diffusion Shower Screen is a stainless steel replacement shower screen designed to get that first contact right. It spreads water across the whole coffee puck so your morning espresso extracts evenly instead of channelling. The version 2.0 Breville screens also now include a 0.2mm contact mesh that sits directly on the coffee bed.
Even Water, Edge to Edge
Eighteen precision-cut channels carry water from the centre of the group out to the basket wall, saturating the puck evenly from the middle to the edge. That removes the dry, weak spots where water would otherwise find a shortcut, giving a steadier extraction with more sweetness and clarity in the cup and more consistent results from one shot to the next.
A Fit for Every Group
Six versions cover E61, La Marzocco, Nuova Simonelli and Victoria Arduino, Gaggia Classic and both Breville group sizes, each supplied with the hardware its group needs. The redesigned Breville 54 fits every 54mm Breville and Sage machine without the EX54 disc. The Breville 58 now works with single and double baskets on the Dual Boiler, Oracle and Oracle Touch.
Pesado High Diffusion Espresso Shower Screen Features
18-Channel High Diffusion - Precision-cut channels reach from the centre of the screen to its outer edge for even saturation across the full puck.
0.2mm Contact Mesh - Included with both Breville versions, the fine mesh and pin sit directly on top of the coffee bed.
Version 2.0 Breville Design - New channels on the 54mm screen and a thinner diffusion block on the 58mm screen.
Machine-Specific Fit - Each version is matched to its group's mounting standard to hold a proper seal against the gasket.
304 Stainless Steel - Durable construction that is easy to clean and resistant to wear.
