Usually the group gasket has simply aged and flattened out a little. A fresh gasket brings the portafilter back to its clean position – and with it the calm, tight extraction you know.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis gasket is the thicker 8.5 mm version for E61 group heads. The extra height compared to the 8.0 mm version gives you a bit more compression and brings the handle back closer to center if it points too far past the zenith when locking in. Outer ø 73 mm, inner ø 57 mm – the standard geometry of the E61 group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"ccc-compare-table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGroup gasket \/ portafilter gasket E61\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHeight (thickness)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.5 mm (thicker version)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOuter diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eø 73 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eInner diameter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eø 57 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFood-safe silicone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePack size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 piece\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFits\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE61 group heads, as found in machines from ECM, Rocket, Profitec, Lelit, Quick Mill, Bezzera, VBM and many more\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e8.0 mm or 8.5 mm?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth heights fit the same E61 group – the choice depends on where you want your portafilter handle to sit. If the handle still points noticeably past center with a new 8.0 mm gasket, or if it no longer seals cleanly, the thicker 8.5 mm gasket brings it back into the right position. There's no right or wrong here – what matters is that the group closes cleanly. That's our observation, one of many.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone with an E61 machine who wants to renew their group gasket and fine-tune the portafilter's position at the same time.
