Olympia Express Shower Holder for Maximatic – Stainless Steel, Original Part
The original shower holder for the Maximatic brew group – stainless steel, precisely milled, perfectly fitting the Maximatic brew group. Holds the shower screen in position and ensures even water distribution during extraction. Original part from Schwanden GL.
What makes this holder special
Essential part of the Maximatic brew group
The holder sits between the brew group's interior and the shower screen – it securely holds the screen and ensures that the water hits the coffee puck evenly. Without this holder, there can be no even extraction.
Stainless steel, acid-resistant
Permanently in contact with water – stainless steel remains corrosion-free. Olympia's material choice for components with direct brewing chamber contact.
Replacement during brew group maintenance
During the general maintenance of the Maximatic brew group – replacing seals, changing the shower screen – it may make sense to also inspect or replace the holder if it shows visible wear or is warped.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I replace the holder?
In case of visible deformation, corrosion, or as a preventive replacement during a complete brew group overhaul. With normal care, the holder lasts many years.

Roastery Tip
When completely overhauling the brew group, it's worth checking the holder as well – if it shows signs of wear after years of intensive use, replacing it is inexpensive compared to a complete overhaul. Our opinion, one of many.
