Pesado V2 High Diffusion shower screen - Breville 58mm

Our new 2.0 BR58HD High Diffusion Shower Screen now has a newely designed 100% stainless steel diffusion plate. Designed to give more clearance inside the group head, allowing for seemless dosing and eliminating the excess exposure to coffee grounds during extractions.

Now come with a free 0.2mm contact mesh. This sits on top of the puck to retain its structure, further reducing channeling and improving diffusion. Bonus: it keeps your HD shower screen cleaner for longer, so there's less maintenance between pulls.

These shower screens are designed to help eliminate micro-channeling caused by irregular water diffusion during the pre-infusion phase. Creating the perfect foundation for great espresso.

We have improved our stainless steel diffusion plate, by reducing it's weight and thickness we can now cater for slightly larger puck beds without effecting the water dispersions performance.

Thinner diffusion plate
This now gives more head room clearance then the stock shower screens, for the Breville 58mm automatic dosing machines which tend to overdose the filter baskets.

Compatible with Breville 58mm machines
Our new 2.0 58mm high diffusion shower screen is compatible with all 58mm Breville machines except the Oracle Jet. Now compatible with both single and double shot filter baskets!

18 Targeted Channels
Ensures even water dispersion across the entire puck surface, every extraction. Crafted entirely from stainless steel, with 18 targeted channels the NEW Pesado HD High Diffusion Shower Screen gives complete control over your water distribution, every extraction.

Regular Water Flow VS High Diffusion Water Flow
Regular Breville shower screens use a basket shaped shower screen that captures the water flow then diffuses the water out across the coffee puck. Unfortunately these have no way to evenly diffuse the water and tend to bundle the flow into 2-4 thick streams which can break the puck causing excess channeling.

The HD High Diffusion Espresso Shower Screen has been designed with channels to distribute the water flow exactly where we want it to be every time. Using this method allows us to hit the exact area we need to every extraction, distributing the water flow outwards across the entire puck bed, evenly. The HD Shower Screen also has a unique feature where the outer channels run all the way to the edge, allowing water to flow directly out the ends into the basket wall.

High Diffusion Puck Clearanc
Most shower screens are only designed to cover up to 54mm in diameter, leaving between 4-5mm around the perimeter, resulting in a smaller surface area of about 10-15% less coverage. Utilizing the unique design of the water channels that run all the way to the edge of the shower screen, including the extended diameter of 58.35mm of surface area, we can target the entire puck bed all at once resulting in a full, and complete infusion.

What's the difference between the regular shower screens and the HD high diffusion shower screen?
The HD Shower Screen is designed to target the entire surface area of the puck bed, consistently every extraction. Utilizing an 18-channel design that targets up to 58.35mm of surface area, we can target the same spots of the puck bed every shot. This creates consistent, precise water diffusion.

Regular mesh shower screens cause erratic water diffusion due to the water gripping to the mesh and flowing completely different paths every extraction. This creates variables every time you extract that you cannot control.

Grab yourself the HD High Diffusion Espresso Shower Screen and create consistent, precise and high-diffused extractions for every shot.

How do I clean the HD Shower Screen?
When using the HD espresso shower screen daily we recommend using a cleaning brush to keep the outer surface and channels free of coffee grounds.

Once a week we recommend a full clean, which involves unscrewing the shower screen and washing both the shower screen plate and screws under water. This will ensure no buildup, and a clean and consistent flow of water for every extraction.

How to install:

• Simply unscrew the center shower screw on your shower screen, and detach the shower screen and plastic diffusion plate together from the group head.
  
• Make sure to clean any residue on the group head before screwing in the new shower screen. We recommend doing a complete backflush before using new shower screen.
  
• Place the new 100% stainless steel diffusion plate against the new HD shower screen, making sure the indent on the diffusion plate is facing up towards the machine.
  
• Screw in the new BR58HD high diffusion shower screen and diffusion plate together using your current shower screw, and you are good to go!
