Thanks for the video. This stuff really helps a new guy out. I just picked up a used Expobar Office Pulser and it has a E-61 type brewhead, so this should be the same for me. Keep up the great work.
@pdxDavid Cool! Please let me know what you think of this machine -- we can't get access to them so don't know how they compare to other E61's on the market. - Kat
Nicely explained, helps a lot of people I recon! If the gasket is really stuck you can also put a blindfilter in the portafilterhandle and begin to do a backflush, with the preassure still on you try to loosen the portafilterhandle. This will make the group head pop right out!
@Jabbawack Hmmm - well, if you're not backflushing regularly, you should! It will address the valve system and keep your machine in good shape -- especially with the quantities you're making. I'd probably take this sucker apart every 4 - 6 weeks if you backflush regularly. But play it by ear and see how it looks at 4 weeks or 6 weeks and then go from there. - Kat
Thank you so much, I was really wondering how to do this correctly!!
