Know before you buy
Yes, the Artpresso Pro Group Head Brush is specifically designed for standard 58mm group heads, which covers the vast majority of professional and prosumer espresso machines.
The microfiber pad is reusable and should be washed in cold water. Always allow it to air dry completely before reattaching it to the tool to maintain its effectiveness.
The magnetic bit allows you to easily remove your shower screen for deep cleaning. Because it is interchangeable, you can swap the bit to match the specific screw type used on your machine's shower screen.
While the aluminum construction is durable, it is recommended to use the tool with caution. The nylon bristles are heat-resistant, but you should avoid prolonged contact with extremely hot surfaces to preserve the longevity of the materials.
The larger acrylic mirror allows you to easily check the condition of your group gasket and shower screen without having to contort your body or use a separate flashlight. It helps you verify that all coffee oils and grounds have been successfully removed.
