When installing our new HD (High Diffusion) Shower Screen, you may notice that your portafilter feels slightly loose. Don’t worry, this is completely normal. The HD screen is specifically designed to work best when paired with our HE (High Extraction) baskets - for the best coffee experience.
If you're not using an HE basket and prefer your portafilter to lock in closer to the 6 o’clock position, here are a few easy solutions:
A. Use a paper spacer behind the group seal.
You can purchase pre-made spacers or DIY your own using household paper materials, adjusting thickness as needed.B. Try a thicker group seal.
Group seals are available in small size increments (typically 0.5mm or 1mm). These are widely available through local coffee gear suppliers.
