Portafilters
These are non-standard 53 mm reasonably heavy weight portafilters. When filled with the
correct amount of coffee, the shower screen and brass nut does tend to press on the puck.
This makes the portafilter harder to lock into the group.
It is also unusual in that it is the first machine reviewed where the handle must be locked
round to the 5 o’clock position quite firmly to prevent leaks. The holes where the coffee exits
the portafilter are angled to take this into account.
It does seem to work reasonably well and you do get a nice dry puck.
Please note that your machine will be thoroughly inspected by Bella Barista prior to delivery
and they will already have ensured that the Super Giada is operating correctly when you
receive it and the brew pressure adjusted if necessary.
Adjustments on this machine are best not attempted by the home user. Damage as result of
incorrect adjustment will not be covered under warranty
