Profitec E61 Flow Profile Valve P1065

Unplug your machine from the power supply and let it cool down before assembling the Profitec E61 Flow Profile Valve

Designed in collaboration between Whole Latte Love in the USA and Profitec, the E61 Flow Control Device allows you to adjust the flow of water in your brew group to manually profile your extractions. This custom component is a stainless steel needle valve, which allows the user to vary the amount of water flowing through the group. Variable flow control allows for lengthy pre-infusion for more even saturation and extraction of your espresso.
