Rocket mozzafiato water flow increased

It was ordered for my rocket and looked the same maybe a little thicker due to the original one flattening due to time.

You mention you changed the mushroom o'ring, did you know there are two sizes?, if you fit the thinner one where a thicker one was, you may get higher flow rate

It is still reaching 9 bar and holding, I had a go at raising & lowering it one or two bar but didn’t seem to change the flow rate.
a friend said that he had a new restrictor as a spare so just changed it out and absolutely no difference ??
Been thinking about getting a e61 flow control device for a while for fun but now it may be necessary..

What sort of pressure are you seeing with a Blind Filter in place?

Rocket mozzafiato water flow increased
Hi I have had the mozzafiato for over two & a half years without any issues and have it plumbed in with a Brita c150 finest inline filter which I have changed every 12 months but I now have a problem..
around a week ago water stopped flowing to a trickle through the group head, after a little look on the internet I took the top nut off the group to look at the restrictor and I found scale over the top off it covering the tiny hole so I used a socket to take it out and give it a 10min bath in citric acid which cleaned it and now I have to much water flow..
I ended up taking the mushroom out and gave that a clean and put on a new o ring on but still getting way more water flow,
I am getting just on 300ml of water out of the group in 15 seconds which I think is almost double to what I was getting when I first got it and checked it a couple of years ago.
any ideas?
oh just to mention I can’t get a pleasant coffee out of it and I find myself looking in the cupboard at a jar of instant coffee ?
