Piston Seal for Superkop – Original Piston Seal
When the lever gets softer or water seeps past the piston, it's usually this small seal.
The original piston seal for the Superkop.
What this part does
The piston seal seals the piston inside the cylinder, so the water is pressed through the coffee instead of leaking past the piston. Over time it can wear out – a new original seal restores clean pressure build-up.
Original spare parts keep your Superkop in shape for a long time – that's part of a relaxed everyday espresso routine. Our opinion is just one among many.

A tip from our coffee roastery
A well-maintained machine deserves fresh coffee. Our Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight bring full-bodied notes of chocolate and nut. For maximum body without acidity, there's Very Nutty, and for a fruity experience, there's Wild Peach. That's our recommendation – one among many.
