Removal Tool for Mushroom Valve Holder or E-61-Style Diffuser

Mushroom Valve Holder Removal Tool

This tool is designed and created here in our Stefano’s Espresso Care shop in Oregon, and it is used to assist in removing the Saeco mushroom valve holder as well as an E-61 generic style grouphead diffuser.

It can be twisted by hand or with an adjustable wrench (socket size 21mm - 13/16).

NOTE: The blade is made of hardened steel, however, if your mushroom valve holder (or diffuser) is cemented in place from years of lack of cleaning, then the blade could bend under pressure.
