Happy to check it over for you Dan. Best bet is to pop in if you have any concerns.

Thanks Chris,
I thought that might be the case, but after coming from a Sunbeam 6910 where collar wear caused problems periodically, I guess I am a bit sensitive about issues in that area.
BTW, I also see a little deformation on the entry side of the locking area of the group with the collar. I guess this is to be expected as well?
Thanks, Dan,

Hi Dan,
Yes- normal. This is the surface of the lug which engages with group. Plating pretty much always comes off in time as it's metal on metal contact in this instance..

Wear on portafilter lugs
Hi all
I own a 4 month old Giotto Evo and as this is my first serious machine, was seeking some thoughts from the more experienced out there. I have noticed some uneven wear of the bottom side of the portafilter lugs, almost all on the right hand side lug (see attached pics). I'm wondering if this is something I need to be worried about, or is it all normal wear and tear? Be great to hear your thoughts.
Thanks, Dan.Tags: None
