Filter kit for group LF 5047938

A kit filter sits inside the group head of an espresso machine, where it holds the coffee puck and shapes the flow of water through the grounds. Hot water from the boiler is forced under pressure through the tiny holes in the filter basket; the basket's perforated base ensures the water spreads evenly across the coffee, extracting flavour and crema without channelling or uneven saturation. The result is a consistent shot of espresso, free from grounds in the cup and with the correct resistance to build the right pressure during extraction.

To use the filter, the operator removes the existing basket from the group head, inserts the new LF filter, and locks it into place with the retaining spring or clip. Once secured, the portafilter is filled with ground coffee, tamped, and reattached to the group. The machine is then started, and the extraction proceeds as normal. The operator monitors the flow rate and volume to confirm the filter is seated correctly and the shot is pulling as expected.

The filter is constructed from stainless steel, perforated to the standardised espresso basket pattern. Its dimensions match the group heads of the listed models, ensuring a secure fit and proper water distribution.

This kit filter fits a wide range of professional espresso machines from ARIANNE, FUTURMAT-ARIETE, ITALCREM, MAIRALI, QUALITY ESPRESSO and VISACREM, including specific models such as the FUTURMAT RIMINI SOUL, ITALCREM IT4, MAIRALI ARIANNE, VISACREM BRAVA and V6 series.
