53.5 & 58.5mm Puck Diffuser Screen
How Does the Puck Diffuser Screen Work?
Puck screens help distribute water uniformly across the coffee puck, ensuring a more consistent extraction.
A powerful gush from the group head can sometimes cause channeling in your espresso shot, leading to uneven extraction. Pesado's coffee puck diffuser screen will help prevent channeling.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a puck screen and how should you use it?
A coffee puck screen is an espresso metal filter or mesh that sits directly on top of your tamped coffee. The purpose of an espresso puck screen is to prevent channelling in the puck by distributing pressure across the entire surface.
Since the Pesado puck diffuser screen is 1.8mm thick, we recommend dosing less coffee as the coffee will expand and the puck screen might bend or hit the shower screen. Simply place the coffee puck diffuser screen on top of your coffee puck before inserting the portafilter into the machine to pour.
How do I clean the coffee puck diffuser screen?
Simply rinse the puck diffuser screen after every use and when it needs a more thorough clean, soak it in cafetto or use a steam wand to clean it.

I was never 100% happy with the tamping on my Breville, and the way the grounds would accumulate on the shower head over time, even though I’d wipe it after every extraction. The diffuser has fixed everything, and it’s so simple. Popping it into the portafiller provides the perfect surface area and creates a barrier between the grounds and the shower head. The result is more consistent extractions and a clean shower head at all times. Simple but effective.

It’s too thick when used with the shower screen as they are thicker than the breville std product

It is very good to use in tandem with the Pesado High Diffusion Portafilter Basket!

Great product. The water is flowing again. I added pics of the factory shower screen only after a few months of using it with a puck screen. This is easier to clean and the water comes out nice and even. I was having issues dialing in the perfect brew. Once I added the pesado, the creama is flowing. I definitely recommend getting this

The puck diffuser screen from Pesado has made a noticeable improvement in my espresso shots, especially with getting the most out of each dose, and keeping the grouphead clean. Highly recommended.

Best way to improve your already majestic gear. Totally worth it and customer service is amazing. I am not kidding spend the money if you did already on a good machine to make it the best.

This puck screen does an excellent job of dispersing hot water into beds of coffee. It's a perfect accompaniment to my new Pesado HE Basket.

The Pesado Puck Diffuser Screen is very stylish and sturdy. It helps to distribute water more evenly over the coffee grounds. I like that it keeps clean my Breville Bambino group head, and Pesado shower screen. Since I began to use it my espresso shots are smoother and more flavorful.

so good PESADO

I did not know what is the difference among the other puck screens. It's different pattern topside and bottom side. It means it should be positioned top side with logo and bottom side is empty logo. I did not test with bottoms up but I surely can feel more wider on my hand through water flow on my hand with puck screen on.
The edge is more soft compare to the other brand puck screen also.
I recommend it, it's surely different.

Works really well. Thanks for this great product

Too big even for a 54mm cup. gets stuck and hard to remove

Very solid construction and actually improves the flow with reducing channeling, at least it appears so. Maybe I’ve finally mastered my puck prep?
