Overview
Introducing the Pesado High Diffusion shower screen. Designed for precision and consistency, eliminating the main issues causing irregular extractions.
Uneven water distribution has always been an issue when trying to achieve consistent extractions, this can be caused by the irregular water flow path through mesh shower screens, smaller surface area coverage and uneven puck infusion.
Utilizing 18 channels we can target the exact spots every extraction, resulting in consistent water flow between every shot.
Combined with the unique feature of the outer channels running all the way to the edge of the shower screen, controlling water flow to target the entire puck bed right to the basket edge, giving us complete control over our water diffusion every shot.

How To Install: E61 HD Shower Screen
Seal Compatibility Notice:
When installing our new HD (High Diffusion) Shower Screen, you may notice that your portafilter feels slightly loose. Don’t worry, this is completely normal. The HD screen is specifically designed to work best when paired with our HE (High Extraction) baskets - for the best coffee experience.
If you're not using an HE basket and prefer your portafilter to lock in closer to the 6 o’clock position, here are a few easy solutions:
A. Use a paper spacer behind the group seal.
You can purchase pre-made spacers or DIY your own using household paper materials, adjusting thickness as needed.
B. Try a thicker group seal.
Group seals are available in small size increments (typically 0.5mm or 1mm). These are widely available through local coffee gear suppliers.
C. Upgrade to a HE Basket
Pair your HD screen with our HE basket for the perfect fit and performance.
Bonus: Send us a copy of your order receipt and get a special discount on the HE basket upgrade!

PESADO HD - High Diffusion Shower Screen
18 Targeted Channels
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
Regular shower screens use a mesh to help distribute the water flow evenly, this does work quite well but unfortunately can result in uneven water distribution.
This is due to the water gripping to the mesh, causing an irregular water flow every extraction.
High Diffusion Water Flow
The HD High Diffusion 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 Clearance
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.
Frequently Asked Questions About HE Filter Baskets
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 extractions. 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, precision 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 shower screen and create consistent, precision and high diffused extractions every shot.

How to install the HD Shower Screen?
LM - HD Shower Screen: Simply unscrew the shower screen screw, remove the current shower screen and clean the group head, then screw in the new HD shower screen. Make sure it is completely screwed in before use.
E61 - HD Shower Screen: You're current E61 shower screen will not have a centre screw like our HD does, so first you need to pop out your current shower screen and seal, then unscrew the diffusion plate inside the group head.
This is very easy to do, all you need is an m8 allen key, then simply screw in our new HD diffusion plate which gives you the ability to screw in the new HD high diffusion shower screen to the diffusion plate. Then insert your gasket seal and use your portafilter to tighten the seal.
Make sure the HD shower screen is completely screwed in before use.
How do I clean the HD Shower Screen?
When using 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 build up, and a clean and consistent flow of water every extraction.
