Brewing Units

Central Brewing Groups for Automatic Espresso Machines

The brewing group is the mechanical "heart" of your espresso machine. It is the unit responsible for receiving ground coffee, tamping it, and extracting the beverage under pressure. At coffeeshop.md, we provide original brewing units and infuser assemblies for top brands like Saeco, Philips, DeLonghi, and Jura, all backed by official warranty and nationwide delivery.

Does the brewing module wear out?

Yes. Even with proper maintenance, a brewing unit is subject to constant friction and high temperatures. Over time, plastic arms and internal tracks wear down, causing the machine to lose pressure or leak coffee grounds inside. Replacing this extraction mechanism after several years of heavy use is essential to maintaining the aromatic quality of your espresso.

The Benefits of a New Brewing Assembly

A brand-new brewing unit ensures a flawless seal and optimal tamping force. This leads to better crema, a drier coffee puck, and a significantly quieter operation. By reducing internal friction, a new infuser also protects the machine's drive motor from unnecessary strain.

Pro Maintenance Tips:

• Lubrication: Apply food-grade grease to the sliding tracks every 500 cycles.
• Cleaning: Rinse the group weekly under lukewarm water and use cleaning tablets to remove rancid coffee oils.
• Seals: If the unit is mechanically sound but leaks, check our Gaskets & O-Rings section for replacements.
