Anyone renting a Scace thermofilter? - Page 4

Just curious, what prevents a rogue coffee ground from the screen from plugging up the uber small hole in the flow restrictor?

a) Operators are to clean and backflush the grouphead prior to using the Scace thermofilter on it.

b) The thermofilter itself features a nice filter system over the orifice that does the actual flow restriction. This ought to prevent clogging from lazy/forgetful failure to backflush, or a lack of thoroughness in doing so.
