The media could not be loaded.After looking into many tips for better extraction. I decided to purchased this IMS shower screen. I have used it for about a week now. As far as the the quality of this shower screen, it does have some scratches. I was little skeptic about the product, but decided to give a try.It fits very well with my BES 880 model. The extraction does seem to be better if you prep and tamp your coffee well. Still little channeling issue with first 10 seconds, but after that it was perfect.I did pair it with IMS precision filter basket. Still waiting on my Espresso Stirrer. My coffee grinder has clumps that I don’t really break it apart. I do think with combination of stirrer, correct tamping pressure, you will have a better extraction and taste.Would recommend upgrading your shower screen to this one.

Easy replacement shower screen for the Solis Barista Perfetta.Remove the screw holding the shower screen (need a metric hex key), the stock screen easily pulls off with your fingers, the IMS screen fits perfectly :-)However, on the Solis Barista Perfetta, you have to be CAREFUL when you replace the screw. The group head is made of PLASTIC. It you cross thread or torque down on the screw, you can easily strip the threads in the group head.The plastic group head makes cleaning the back of the screen a problem. This is a fault of Solis, in making the group head out of plastic, rather than metal. Because of this, on the Solis Barista Perfetta, I would limit as much as possible how often I clean behind the screen.Update: Do NOT bother with this for the Solis Barista Perfetta. You trade one problem for another. The screen will cause a jetting of water to the side of the portafilter, cutting a channel into the puck.It will probably be simpler and cheaper to use a puck screen.
