Brush tool for cleaning of espresso machine group heads
A very practical tool to help keeping your machine clean.
Designed in Switzerland, it was launched for sale to the public in early 2017 and has immediately found favour within the coffee community, with numerous positve reviews in coffee blogs worldwide.
It quickly and efficiently removes coffee residues from the group head with a simple back-and-forth movement, whilst the water running from the machine rinses all parts of the head. It is not only a fast and safe process, but also practically eliminates the mess associated with cleaning using conventional brushes (the water can be collected in the tray or in a bowl)
Currently the Espazzola is available in a single size only. Please make sure the portafilter of your machine has two "ears" or "hooks" and an open diameter of 57 to 59 millimeters (usually it is easier to measure the diameter of the tamper: this should be between 56 and 58 millimeters)
Exceptions - the Espazzola will not fit following machines:
-
Lelit 50s (Anna, Anita, Gilda or Diana):
the outer rim of the group-head is too narrow
-
Lelit Vip (Grace or Victoria):
the outer rim of the group-head is too narrow
-
GRAEF (all machines):
the outer rim of the group-head extends down at the back
