What makes this different to other shower screens? As a continuation of my sealed shower screens, this one is sealed to the group head creating a pressurized chamber within the screen. This back pressure forces water to evenly flow out of each of the evenly spaced holes*. Biased hole patterns will be made at a later time as well.
While designing the screen, why not take some time to reevaluate the elephant in the room which is the protruding screw head. Time and time again, I am asked for a solution to stop denting the puck and puck screens for which I have always recommended this kit, developed by a fellow hardcore coffee enthusiast and long time customer of mine!
Taking inspiration from it, the included screw is a shrunken version of the stock screw made as small as I could manage so it fits within the screen. It is a 6-hole screw** specific to this screen to provide a flush finish. Gain back lost headspace and stop denting your pucks and puck screens!
Shower screen construction: 316 Stainless Steel
Screw construction: Hardened 17-4 Stainless Steel
Compatibility:
Fits all La Marzocco, Slayer, Synesso style machines with a dispersion screw
Considerations:
*Exact flow pattern and performance of this screen will highly depend on the machine it is installed onto. Some factors that may affect this are the flow restrictor orifice, flow rate, machine level, etc. For some La Marzocco machines, a 0.6mm gicleur should be used to achieve the rain pattern shown here
**Spare screws are available due to the small and custom size specific to this screen. Aka if you drop it and it rolls into a black hole

This will ship with UPS whenever possible. If USPS is selected, a comparable UPS shipping service may be used instead
