Espresso Machine Group Head Shower Screen is used for spreading brew water evenly over the coffee puck from the espresso group head through a perforated stainless shower screen, so extraction is even across the basket. EU 1935 is the reference cited for it on drawings, datasheets and purchase orders.
What EU 1935 Means for Espresso Machine Group Head Shower Screen
The dimensions in the table below are supplied to suit EU 1935. Where the standard sets requirements for the finished appliance, device or system, compliance testing of that assembly stays with its manufacturer; we supply the metal mesh part to the drawing and can provide material certificates and dimensional reports with the shipment.

- Material: Food-grade SS304 or SS316.
When Espresso Machine Group Head Shower Screen Is Not the Right Choice
Not a puck screen — puck screens sit on top of the coffee in the basket, not in the group head.
