Coffee Hit Espresso Puck Screen 58.5mm Black | Pack of 2

What Is a Puck Screen?

A puck screen sits between your coffee puck and the group head shower screen when pulling an espresso shot. It acts as a barrier that distributes water evenly across the entire surface of the puck, promoting more uniform extraction and reducing channelling where water finds the path of least resistance through the puck rather than extracting evenly. The result is a more consistent, balanced shot with better clarity and a cleaner group head after each pull.

Cleaner Group Head, Fewer Backflushes

With a puck screen in place, spent coffee grounds and oils transfer onto the screen rather than directly onto the shower screen and group head dispersion block. After each shot, the puck screen comes out with the portafilter, keeping your group head significantly cleaner between backflushes. Simply rinse the screen under hot water or drop it in your cleaning solution.

Precision Made from 304 Stainless Steel

Each screen is cut to a precise 58.5mm diameter the standard size for the vast majority of 58mm espresso machines including most E61, commercial, and prosumer home machines. At just 0.2mm thickness, it sits flush within the basket without affecting headspace or grind dose. The black electroplating gives a sleek, contemporary finish and adds a layer of corrosion resistance over the food-grade 304 stainless steel base.

Pack of 2

Each box contains two puck screens, so you always have a spare to hand. Rotate between the two during cleaning or keep one as a backup. At this price point, they also make a practical addition to any espresso accessories gift.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size espresso machines are these compatible with?

These puck screens are 58.5mm in diameter, making them compatible with the vast majority of 58mm espresso machines. This includes most E61 group head machines, as well as popular home and prosumer models from Sage, Lelit, ECM, Rocket, La Marzocco, and many others. If you are unsure whether your machine uses a 58mm basket, check your portafilter basket diameter before ordering.

Does the screen affect extraction or dose?

At just 0.2mm thick, the puck screen has a negligible effect on headspace. Most users do not need to adjust their grind or dose when using a puck screen, though we recommend pulling a test shot after fitting to confirm. The primary effect is improved water distribution and reduced channelling, which typically improves extraction consistency.

How do I clean the puck screen?

After each shot, rinse the screen under hot running water. For a deeper clean, soak in a solution of espresso machine cleaner (such as Cafetto Espresso Clean
