Custom Tune Up Kit 3in1 for Rancilio Silvia. IMS Nanotech Reinforced Screen SRT200NT, Cafelat Gasket - Green, Flat Screw

I felt a bit skeptical about spending so much for a gasket, screen, and a simple screw, but hey, it works! I have an old v1 machine and everything fit perfectly. My old rubber gasket was very stiff and started leaking around the portafilter recently, and I started using a puck screen recently and the original bolt/screw was super annoying, so I decided to splurge on this kit.I removed the old screen, cleaned the grouphead, pried out the old gasket, and then dropped all the new items into the Silvia. The gasket seals better than my previous gasket ever did (the portafilter aligns with the dots now). The shower screen spreads the water out the entire screen, unlike my previous one which would just gush out the middle. The flat screw fits mostly flush against the screen - as other reviews have mentioned it will jut out just a tiny bit which is not a big deal to me.All in all this kit gave new life to my old Silvia V1 and I'm glad I purchased it.

I switched this on my Silvia and it is a good kit. My gasket was not bad but i switched it anyway. I think the group screen is much better. The one issue i would say is the screw while better than the original is not flush at all. Is still is worth while. I am going to look for a better screw.

This is easy to install, and the flush screw is a nice touch. If it has any defect, I'd say that the gasket seems a little hard, and I've had some blow-by leaks from a virtually brand-new gasket. I haven't ruled out replacing the group head gasket a second time with one bought separately that maybe seals better.

The screen in this kit is fantastic, I like it much better than the original one, and the flush-mounted screw, I think, is a way better screw than the original. However, the gasket did not work well for me. My original gasket rarely leaked, and this gasket leaks every time I pull a shot. No matter how tight I set the portafilter in the machine. I ended up ordering a replacement stock gasket to use instead.

I bought this as an 'upgrade' to oem screen, and it for sure reduces channeling. I use a bottomless portafilter, and with the oem screen I would get little squirts of espresso that shoot outside the main stream on a regular basis and I am very fastidious with my puck prep - after switching out with this screen those were eliminated almost entirely. And yes, the screw protrudes slightly more than the oem one, but does not appear to be an issue at all. I did not install the green gasket yet. All in all happy with my purchase.

I just installed this kit today and had a difficult time getting the gasket to fit flush First time I thought it was in but the portafilter would not lock in.Finally I put a small amount of mineral oil on the gasket, and with some fiddling it went all the way in.Mineral oil is good grade so it won’t leave any off taste.So far so good.

The media could not be loaded. Fits well on my rancilio silvia, the screw is a very good upgrade from the stock one and you can barely see the dent in the puck, amazing water distribution

Swapped out my old screen and gasket with this upgrade, wow what a difference in water distribution throughout the puck. Definately worth the upgrade.
