[Verkaufe] POM Disfuser w. wirescreen for Dallacorte/ La Spaz

Hi @Thebat18, the diffuser is perfect for original Dalla Corte 55mm filter baskets and the quite simmilar IMS baskets for Dalla Corte. And it greatly improves puck surface.

The sucktion happens only with LSM baskets, that are available for 12g and 14g, also 55mm diameter, but reduce directly under the ridge. The diffuser is close and tight with the basket, sealing just under the ridge. So it's the LSM baskets, that don't fit with the 54,6mm diffuser.

The LSM baskets are perfectly for dark espresso, because you can easly dose 12 or 13 g.

On the other hand, the 11mm thick diffuser gives you room for 1 to 1,5g more coffee than the standard diffuser. This is great for bright roasts.

Conclusio:

• for dark coffee (and the small LSM baskets) the diffuser should be 13mm thick and for example 53,9mm diameter
• for bright coffee (and the larger IMS/Dalla Corte baskets) you shower is perfect, as it is.

Probably that's the reason, why my machine came with two diffusers, 11mm and 13mm.

 

Für mich ist die Duschplatte mit Sieb eher ein Kaufgrund weil kein Kaffeemehl sich darunter ansammelt.
Ich habe das Problem beim Standartsieb und beim competitionsieb.. deshalb werd ich das auch mal ausprobieren.

 

My buddy has a lathe. Changing the diameter is no big deal for me. I mostly drink medium to light roasts. Sometimes medium dark like ATT Nesun Dorma. I'm quite confident that I'll never need the stock diffusor again. The 12g LSM basket will take 14g, I reckon. Perfect for me.

What can go wrong with a "Some Serious Gourmet Shit" marking?

 

Review later on.

 

Writing up a review turns out to be staight forward. Why isn't Dalla Corte shipping their machines with a diffusor like that? This little blue disc just makes sense. It makes extraction somewhat consistent. Especially, when I worked sloppy on distributing the grounds, I got punnished with channeling directly. All gone now with the new diffusor.

Does it taste different? I don't know.

Doesn't changing from bras to pom signifficantly change the thermal behaviour of the machines. Maybe this is a minor issue for the saturated group head of the dalla corte. But for the la spaziale i would guess that changing thermal conductivity and capacity by factors of 10 has quit some impact in the thermal equilibrium and the brewing water temperature.
Does anybody have experience with that?

Und auf deutsch ?

 

ob POM Einfluss auf die thermische Stabilität hat. Abhängig von der BG-Konstruktion.

 

Yesterday, my POM diffuser w. wirescreen from Thebat18 arrived (@Thebat18: thanks). And the water distribution seems to be significantly better indeed. However, now I've recognised the problem that the basket (Sieb) heavily sticks to the POM diffuser after I remove the portafilter. This morning I used a fork in order to remove the basket from the diffuser. Does anyone else happens to have the same problem? @Thebat18: maybe the dimensions of the diffuser are slightly to big?

 

Das Sieb hängt mit Pulver an der Dusche bzw. dem POM fest ?
So stark das sich das Sieb aus dem Siebträger löst ?

 

@Ansonamun: Genau, das Sieb hängt mit Pulver am POM so fest, dass das Sieb sich aus dem Siebträger löst.
@Thebat18 : It's indeed a special basket (ACCURATO LA SPAZIALE 2er basket 15g from Tidaka) I'll try another basket. Was just the first test this morning.

 

I got nearly 10 baskets for my la spaziale, also the accurato that you use.
i dont got a problem with it.
