The IMS screen really shines when you upgrade to a single-walled screen like the \u003ca title=\"KM 51mm Screen\" href=\"https:\/\/keffeemacher.com\/products\/siebe-51mm\"\u003eKM 51mm Screen\u003c\/a\u003e. With the original double-walled screens (\"crema screens\"), the taste difference is minimal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe membrane is delicate by design. Clean the screen only with soft brushes or a cloth. Sharp objects will destroy the fine mesh immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation and Care:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation isn't rocket science, but it does require a bit of finesse:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLoosen the Screw:\u003c\/b\u003e Turn the DeLonghi upside down or use a short angled screwdriver.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBe Careful When Removing:\u003c\/b\u003e The old screen often sticks. A gentle lever with a spoon handle helps.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eClean:\u003c\/b\u003e Since you have the screen off, wipe down the brew group with a damp cloth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/b\u003e Insert the IMS screen and tighten the screw by hand. \u003cb\u003eDon't over-tighten!\u003c\/b\u003e If you tighten the screw too much, the screen will warp and water distribution will suffer again. Hand-tight is all you need.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe recommend a short backflush after each shot to rinse out residue. Since backflushing is barely possible with the Dedica, you should unscrew the screen every two weeks and clean it in hot water with espresso machine cleaner. You'll be surprised how much residue accumulates behind it despite daily rinsing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Are There Small Notches Visible at the Edge of the Shower Screen?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe notches marked in the image at the edge are caused by manufacturing and are normal for this shower screen. They do not represent damage and have no impact on the product's function or durability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0406\/3343\/4269\/files\/duschsieb_480x480_transparent.webp?v=1787214396\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IMS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53096784265480,"sku":"dl200im","price":19.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0406\/3343\/4269\/files\/ims-dl200im-duschsieb-fur-delonghi-dedica-serie-hauptbild_2.webp?v=1787292973","url":"https:\/\/keffeemacher.com\/en\/products\/dl200im","provider":"keffeemacher.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
