Hypergrind Puck Screen

The Hypergrind Puck Screen disperses water more evenly across the coffee bed, which helps prevent channeling—where water finds the path of least resistance through the grounds. By ensuring consistent saturation, you get a more balanced and uniform extraction.

Yes, it acts as a physical barrier between your coffee puck and the machine's shower screen. This keeps the shower screen significantly cleaner, reducing the amount of coffee residue and oils that build up over time.
