Description
xOverview
The Normcore Puck Screen is a precision tool designed to support stable puck integrity and even extraction for espresso. Crafted from 316 stainless steel and finished with a Titanium PVD coating, it combines corrosion resistance with a hard-wearing surface that resists staining and wear over time. This is a tool you can rely on pull after pull.
Engineered with a 1.7mm thick multi-layer mesh and a 100µm filtration size, the design helps balance water flow as the shot pulls. Practically speaking, you may notice steadier flow through the bed and a more uniform extraction profile, especially when dialing in a new roast or adjusting grind settings.
Because it is reusable, you can skip disposable paper filters. The coating and geometry also support a cleaner brew head over multiple uses. A quick rinse after each session, plus a Cafiza soak or a brief steam-wand pass for stubborn stains, keeps the tool looking and performing well—potentially reducing grounds buildup over time.

- Hard-wearing titanium PVD coating resists corrosion and reduces ground sticking after use.
