Hi all.
I’ve noticed there is quite a lot of options for precision fit tampers and baskets, but then you take this perfectly tamped puck and clamp it in tight up against a shower head which may or may not be a good fit.
In the case of my Nuova Simonelli Appia II, it’s not a snug fit. I would estimate about 3mm of space around the side where coffee moves up the side of the basket and gets stuck all up around the shower head.
These particular shower heads/screens have a large bolt head sticking down out of them also which pushes into the puck too.
It doesn’t seem like a very nice clean design at all. Considering that my home machine Breville Dual Boiler has a much cleaner shower head with a smooth fit against the puck.
Has anyone heard of a modified shower head/screen designed to fit into the NS machines?
