About

Group Head Care puts the basics of Care of the espresso machine group head: what it is, how it gets dirty, backflushing, and when gaskets and shower screens wear out, as the maker's manual describes it into plain words.

The pages draw on published material such as manufacturers' manuals and specifications, government and university pages, and encyclopedias. Each page lists the sources behind it at the bottom, along with the date it was last checked.

There are no ads here, and nothing is for sale.

What you read here is general information. Your own equipment's manual comes first, and where safety or the law calls for a qualified tradesperson, use one.
