We get it. Keeping your espresso machine clean, no matter how much you love it, isn't the most entertaining element of espresso-making. That's why Pallo created this clever little tool to make espresso machine maintenance a lot easier. The Coffeetool Group Head Cleaning Brush is angled just right for cleaning, long enough so you won't burn your fingers and offers plenty of innovative features such as strong bristles that are also replaceable.
Pros
Length - The Coffeetool brush is long enough so you won't burn your fingers when cleaning the brew head.
Replaceable Bristles - Though quite sturdy and durable, you can replace the bristles!
Easy to Use - Using this Coffeetool brush is extremely simple
Cons
Plastic Construction - This product is made from plastic, which some users may find undesirable.
How Does it Compare?
The length ensures that you won't burn your fingers when using this cleaning brush. And the angle keeps hot water from dribbling onto your wrists.
Best Answer:It doesn't say on the actual brush, but the package for the three replacement heads says that they are made in China. I can only assume the entire brush/handle unit is made there too.
Best Answer:The measuring spoon on the Coffeetool group head cleaning brush is a detergent scoop for measuring the appropriate amount of backflush detergent and is approximately 1/2 tsp.
This is the piece I was missing from my coffee making collection - previously the next time I pulled a blank shot of water from my machine it was always a bit murky because there was residue from previous shots on my brewhead but no more!

I own a brew gasket brush by a different maker than Pallo and this one if far superior. When I watched Gail use it in a video I thought right away that I had to get one of those nifty cleaning tools myself! So I did and it is great. I also like the fact the the brush head is replaceable! (Posted on 9/19/2012)

This and some Joe Glo and you're good to go. Daily scrubbing has cut down on oils and improved flavor. Having the tool makes it easy to keep up with monthly cleaning. Consider this tool a must have. Brush is replaceable too.
Pros:
Easy To Use, Commercial Grade
Cons:

Get the grounds out that paper towels just can't reach. Ensures a tight fit between the group head and the portafilter.
