Tame uneven water flow and unlock sweeter, more even extractions. The new Pesado High Diffusion Espresso Shower Screen V2 is engineered to spread water uniformly across the entire puck - right out to the basket wall - so you can dial in faster and taste more balance in every shot. The design uses 18 targeted channels (not a traditional mesh) to keep flow paths consistent from shot to shot.

Choose the HD54 for all Breville’s 54mm machines, or the MV-HD set for Breville’s 58mm group (excludes Oracle Jet) which also replaces the stock plastic diffuser with a full stainless plate for long-term reliability.

Machine Compatibility:

54HD - Breville 54mm:
Bambino, Bambino Plus, Barista Pro, Barista Touch, Touch Impress, Duo-Temp Pro, Barista Express, Barista Express Impress and The Infuser

MV-HD - Breville 58mm:
Dual Boiler, Oracle, Oracle Touch.

Please Note: The 54HD is not compatible with single baskets; use double baskets only.
The new MV-HD is now compatible with both single and double shot baskets.

30-day returns on unused items

Why You'll Love It

* Even puck coverage: Channelled design targets the whole coffee bed, reducing side-bias and channeling.
* Consistency built in: 18 water channels map flow to the same spots every time.
* All-steel durability (58mm set): Upgrades Breville’s plastic diffusion plate to stainless for cleaner, more reliable flow over time.
Dialing In: Quick Setup Guide

* 54mm: Remove the original screen, clean the group, screw in the HD screen.

* 58mm: Remove the original screen and plastic diffuser, seat the stainless diffusion plate against the HD screen (indent facing away from the screen), then reinstall with your existing screw

Care:
Brush channels clear after use; once a week, remove and rinse the screen (and diffusion plate, 58mm set) to prevent buildup and keep flow uniform.

FAQs

What is a high diffusion shower screen and why does it matter?

A high diffusion shower screen has a more open, precisely engineered hole pattern than the stock Breville screen. This distributes water more evenly across the coffee puck, reducing channelling and giving you a more consistent extraction on every shot.

Is this a direct replacement for the stock Breville shower screen?

Yes. It fits directly into the grouphead of Breville 54mm machines in place of the original screen - no modifications needed. Remove the centre bolt, swap the screen, refit the bolt.

However - please note that it is not compatible with single shot baskets. Double shot baskets only.

Which Breville machines is this compatible with?

This fits Breville 54mm machines: Barista Express (BES870), Barista Pro (BES878), Barista Touch (BES880), and Barista Touch Impress (BES881). It is not compatible with Breville 58mm machines - if you have a Dual Boiler, Oracle, or Oracle Touch, you need the 58mm version.

How often should I replace my shower screen?

For home use, every 12–18 months is a good guideline - or sooner if you notice uneven extraction, slower flow, or visible scaling. Regular backflushing extends the life significantly. However the lifespan of these HD screens is much longer and should be fine for years.

Will this actually improve my espresso?

For most home setups, yes - especially if your machine is more than a year old and still running the original screen. More even water distribution means better saturation of the puck, which translates to a sweeter, more balanced shot with fewer bitter notes.

58.5 Tamper.

Quality tamper that fits my Profitec Jump Basket perfectly. Also, matches the wood controls on my machine. Overall, I'm very pleased with the product and professional service from Coffee Nerd. Thank you.

Love it - can now see how poor my espresso shots are going to be before tasting them :)

Dedica 51mm - Bottomless Portafilter - Almond Solid Wood

Much better than the portafilter provided Delonghi, which would constantly get blocked with a fine grind. Given it's an after market unit, I do recommend holding it in place when extracting as it has the propensity to pop out.

Aaron F.
Barista scales

Very impressed with my new scales giving me a new dimension to my coffee making.

Perfect extraction

The extraction quality of combining the high dispersion shower with the bottomless portafilter on my Breville machine has lifted my coffee experience to the next level.

Jeremy T.
Great customer service

Ordered a few barista tools and a bottomless portafilter to suit a dual boiler. Expedient delivery and great follow up customer service to sort a small issue. Highly recommend.

Lindsay W.
Scales are great

Smart R10 digital coffee scales are brilliant. Very sensitive, which is nothing but good🙂

Bruce A.
Fantastic value and performance

Incredibly satisfied across all areas here, amazing value, fantastic perfomance, rapid delivery. The level of luxury this brings away from 240v mains in incredible. I use it in my office as a matter of course now. Grinds 19g of beans very evenly and with low retention in approximately 2 mins.

Shouldve bought it earlier

Only mistake i made was not buying this earlier. Really makes a huge difference and now can see the extraction better and know how to fix it
