“This works well and is accurate, portafilter choice is important though, I went with a cheap stainless steesl portafilter on amazon, it does work but it was an openface threadwith and is prone to leak from those threads on spout attacment (not the gauge fittings) it was cheap so it works for me leakage, was minor but annoying, again not becusee of this parts fittings. It is not something you will often use but to check on pressure accuracy, very helpfull for those not equiped on their machine.”
“Required some teflon tape to assemble without leaking. I used it on a gaggia spouted portafilter and a breville spouted portafilter (58mm) by unscrewing the spout which was very stiff on the older gaggia portafilter. In any case, the works correctly and allowed me to adjust OPV to 9 bar (10 bar static) without issue.”
“The gauge gets filled with water and does not show accurate pressure. Once filled with water it is very diffcult to see the pressure scale. I would not recommend this gauage”
“Exactly as pictured and accurately reflects the pressure at the brew head. It was easy to mount on a spare portafilter using blue Teflon tape that let me turn the gauge to the front for best visibility.”
“Easy installation with minor leakage, just unscrew the spout ifrom the portafilter and hand tight this pressure kit for a good gage for your brewing pressure”
