E61 Group Head Pressure Pump Gauge for Espresso Coffee Machine Brew Accesories

I bought AlloverPower E61 Group Head Pressure Pump Gauge for my Rocket Giotto machine, and I’m thoroughly impressed. The gauge seamlessly integrates with my espresso machine, looking like it came with it originally. It provides accurate pressure readings, giving me valuable insights into my brewing process. This has allowed me to make precise adjustments, bringing my espresso closer to perfection. The package also includes a wrench for easy installation and additional gaskets of different thicknesses to ensure a perfect fit. Highly recommended for any espresso enthusiast!

Looks good on my Sanremo Cube, paired with the Lucca Flow Control. A bit of a challenge installing but it worked well after all the efforts.

A nice gauge for dialing in your brew pressure on an E-61 machine. I replaced it with a temperature gauge after dialing in the pressure. But, I will keep it for when I need to set the pressure again.

I have an Italian espresso machine with an E61 group head and got curious about pressures so tried one of these gauges. It seems a bit expensive, it's a $10 pressure gauge but you pay the premium for someone figuring out the right adapter and including it in a kit, so that's ok. The gauge works fine, I can see the difference in grinds and tamping, some shots flow at 9 bar, some at 12 if they're too tight, and I've been fiddling around with turning the pressure on and off to keep it in the lower range. The only issue I had was installing it, getting the thread started was a bit of a trick. I think the hole isn't threaded perpendicular to the pipe, so you naturally try to install it at the wrong angle. Move it up and down and bit and you'll find the right angle. The other issue is how many washer to use. I tried one at first and it leaked pretty badly, I put another on and now it's water tight and working fine.

Works great on Rocket Type V espresso machines. Gives you feedback of your grind pressure on your portafilter. I’m very happy with it,’use it every day.

I saw this item on Pinterest not knowing such a thing existed. I decided to add it to my Rocket Mozzafiato. I knew that buying it on Amazon afforded me an easy means for returning should it disappoint. It did not disappoint. I think it adds a degree of coolness along with a handy way to see the machine's output is on target. It was necessary to wrap a thin strand of Teflon plumber's tape several times around the threading, but then we were good to go. The gauge also came with several thin washers to aid in getting it tight at the point where the faceplate is correctly upright. Upon use, it zips right up to a steady 9 bars with each shot. I read some people lamenting that their needle vibrated violently. That is not a flaw in the gauge, rather it is the actual pressure fluctuation of the machine's pump. Rocket espresso machines, for instance, offer Type R and Type V pumps. R for rotary and V for vibratory. These pump styles maintain pressure differently as the gauge accurately reflects.

The gauge works well, I did have to exchange one as it was rattling. The chrome finish is pretty poor and certainly doesn’t match the luster of a high end espresso machine. I also don’t like stacking washers to get to the proper rotation - this is a pretty big no-no in the engineering world as it is much more prone to leaking. Overall, seems to work fine and considering the cost it’s ok.

Looks like very good quality presure sensor that screwed right in with additional spacers to make it align for easy reading. It fit my old classic 1998 Fiorenzato 2 group commercial espresso machine with the standard E61 group head.

Magnífico producto, es el segundo gauge de este tipi que compro y no hay igual, excelente.

Don't buy, needle oscillate at high pressure. Unable to pin point right pressure.

Came with various size washers to ensure that the dual is upright when fully tightened. Works great.

Bad quality made of plastic not m Metal !! And not working at all not recommended to buy it

Die AlloverPower E61 Gruppenkopf-Druckanzeige ist ein praktisches Upgrade für Maschinen mit E61-Brühgruppe. Die Montage ist unkompliziert und passt sauber in das vorgesehene Gewinde. Verarbeitung und Materialqualität wirken solide und hochwertig. Der große Vorteil ist die direkte Kontrolle des Brühdrucks während der Extraktion. Druckabweichungen sind sofort erkennbar, was bei der Feinabstimmung von Mahlgrad und Bezugszeit hilfreich ist. Gerade bei der Optimierung auf konstante 9 bar liefert das Manometer eine gute Orientierung. Die Anzeige ist gut ablesbar und reagiert präzise. Insgesamt ein funktionales Zubehörteil für alle, die ihre Espressozubereitung technisch genauer kontrollieren möchten. Klare Empfehlung für ambitionierte Home-Baristas.
