The LUCCA A53 IMS Precision Shower Screen transforms water distribution in the LUCCA A53 and La Spaziale Vivaldi espresso machine lines. Part of IMS's competition line of precision baskets, this version adds IMS's Nanoquartz coating. This hydrorepellent surface treatment breaks incoming water into fine, evenly distributed droplets across the full face of the screen. Water saturates the puck more uniformly, spent pucks release cleanly, and the coating adds resistance to corrosion and chemicals.

Note: Clean the LUCCA A53 IMS precision shower screen only with hot water and a microfiber cloth. Remove the screen before backflushing with Cafetto EVO, Cafiza, or any backflushing detergent, as chemical cleaners will strip the coating. Avoid abrasive tools and don't put them in the dishwasher.
