Description

The Verybarista Custom Tune-Up Kit for Rancilio and Promac espresso machines is designed for baristas who want to elevate performance, reliability, and taste in one simple upgrade.

Each component has been carefully selected and tested for precision fit, heat stability, and extraction consistency. It will turn your routine maintenance into a true performance enhancement.

E&B Lab QUARTZ NANOTECH Reinforced Membrane Shower Screen (SR200RNT)

200 µm filtering capacity ensures even water flow and prevents channeling.
Reinforced membrane withstands constant brewing pressure for long-lasting durability.
NanoQuartz coating adds a hydrophobic, non-stick surface that repels coffee residues, simplifies cleaning, and maintains uniform extraction shot after shot.

Cafelat Silicone Gasket

Made from food-grade, non-toxic FDA silicone, free from odor or taste.
Retains elasticity and flexibility far longer than standard rubber gaskets.
Easy to install and remove, ensuring a secure seal and consistent pressure.

Stainless Steel Screw

Flat-profile screw designed for a precise fit with the E&B Lab shower screen.
Corrosion-resistant and built to withstand high temperatures and daily use.

This custom kit is a complete solution to restore your espresso machine’s performance, improve cup quality, and reduce maintenance effort - trusted by home baristas and professionals alike.

Compatibility

Fits all Rancilio and Promac models.

Not suitable for models with different group head diameters - please verify before purchase.

Instructions & Care

Turn off and unplug the espresso machine before installation.
Remove the existing shower screen, gasket, and screw.
Clean the group head area thoroughly.
Install the new Cafelat gasket, then the E&B Lab NanoQuartz shower screen using the stainless steel screw.
Tighten gently until secure. Do not overtighten.
Backflush and rinse before first use.
Regularly clean the shower screen to maintain performance. Do not put it in a dishwasher.

Regular Care

Purge water through the group head before and after brewing to keep the screen clean.
Wipe the gasket with a clean, damp cloth to prevent coffee buildup.
Backflush with water after your last shot of the day.

Weekly / Monthly Care

Backflush with espresso cleaner: Use a Cafetto espresso cleaning tablet once per week.
Deep clean the shower screen & holder: Soak in warm water with espresso cleaner, rinse thoroughly, and reinstall.
Check gasket condition: Inspect for wear or residue. Silicone lasts longer than rubber, but should still be monitored.

Longevity Tips

Avoid overtightening the screw - it only needs to be snug.
Do not use abrasive pads or harsh chemicals on stainless components.
Replace the silicone gasket when it loses elasticity or begins to leak.
Proper care will ensure consistent flavor, reliable extractions, and extend the lifespan of your machine.

Help & Advice

Why is the silicone gasket better than the stock rubber gasket?

Silicone gaskets:

Are more heat-resistant and last longer
Don’t absorb odors or flavors as much as rubber ones
Provide a softer, more secure seal
Are more durable

This means less frequent replacement and improved machine performance.

Do I need special tools to install the kit?

No. Installation requires only a standard screwdriver. Most customers can replace all parts in less than 10 minutes.

Portafilter feels harder to lock in than before?

Cause: The new silicone gasket is slightly thicker and softer than your worn rubber one.

Solution: This is normal and will loosen slightly after a few uses. Avoid forcing - a firm twist is enough.

What improvements can I expect after installation?

According to customer reviews:

Improved water distribution: one user said “the denser screen creates many tiny water streams that extract finer grinds evenly.”
Easier cleaning: The NanoQuartz coating is described as “non-sticky… maintenance is simpler.”
Better tuck and seal: With the silicone gasket replacing older rubber versions, customers mention the group head seal is tighter and pressure more consistent.
Overall, many users report smoother extractions and less channeling.
