What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly value this brush for its specialized design and superior cleaning effectiveness.

Know before you buy
The elbow design is specifically engineered to reach into the tight crevices of your group head, around the shower screen, and into the nooks of the portafilter gasket where standard brushes often fail to reach.
The brush features bristles firm enough to scrub away stubborn coffee oils and grounds, yet they are designed to be safe for use on standard metal and silicone espresso machine components without causing scratching.
For optimal performance and to prevent the buildup of rancid coffee oils, we recommend a quick scrub of the group head after every session and a more thorough cleaning during your weekly backflushing routine.
Yes, its compact, angled profile is versatile enough to work with most home espresso machines, including E61 group heads and standard commercial-style machines.
Simply rinse the bristles under warm water to remove coffee residue after each use. Store it in a dry place, ideally hanging or standing upright, to allow the bristles to air dry completely and maintain their shape.
