Puck Screens

Achieve Flawless Espresso Extraction: Why Puck Screens Are Essential for Baristas

Puck screens might seem like an extra step, but for baristas dedicated to achieving flawless espresso extraction, they're a game-changer. Here at Coffee Parts, we offer a variety of high-quality puck screens to elevate your coffee-making experience, with all orders dispatched the same working day from our Australian warehouse.

Why Puck Screens Are Essential for Baristas:

• Enhanced Distribution and Consistency: Traditional tamping can result in uneven distribution, especially with finer grinds. Puck screens act as a thin barrier between the shower screen and your portafilter, allowing for slight movement during tamping. This movement helps redistribute grounds for a more level and consistent puck, leading to better extraction and improved espresso quality.
• Reduced Channeling: Uneven distribution can lead to channeling, where water flows unevenly through the coffee puck, resulting in bitter and unevenly extracted espresso. Puck screens help prevent channeling by promoting even water flow through the grounds, ensuring a balanced and delicious cup.
• Cleanliness Champion: Puck screens capture any loose coffee grounds that may escape the portafilter during tamping, keeping your machine's group head clean and reducing the need for frequent backflushing. This is especially beneficial for cafes with high shot volume.
• Protection for your Machine: Over time, coffee grounds can build up on your machine's shower screen, potentially impacting performance. Puck screens act as a protective barrier, minimizing wear and tear on your equipment and extending its lifespan.

Upgrade Your Coffee Ritual with Puck Screens:

Puck screens are a simple yet effective tool that can significantly improve your espresso-making experience. They offer benefits for baristas of all skill levels, from beginners seeking cleaner workflows to seasoned professionals striving for ultimate consistency and extraction quality.
