Question 1

Has anyone tried one of these in a Rocket/ECM Giotto? It's an E61 but not sure all are alike.

Accepted Answer

Just installed in my ECM Giotto and it's a perfect fit.  I read that if your handle is a little worn, the 8.5 is better than the 8mm version, but this one works fine for me.  Very happy

Question 2

Will this fit an older pasquini livia 90?  8mm or 8.5mm? i believe livia 90 is basically a bezerra but not sure which model it is like

Accepted Answer

Actually it fits just fine... depending on which of the 3 listed you mean.  The red (orange?) E61 8mm gasket is the same size Bezzera / Pasquini shown on Pasquini's site for sale for $8.50 (plus shipping.)  Just check the image and you should see imprinted on the gasket "Coffewerks" and "E61 8".  In other words, E61 and 8mm.  That being said, my Livia 90 has been around for decades and I found the 8mm size was maybe a little too thin.  The portafilter ends up turning an extra 30 degrees past center.  So maybe 8.5mm might be better for a machine with more wear.  Also, this type gasket doesn't fit all Livia 90s (SN >24000 or beginning LA or LS).  Check to make sure which type you need.

Question 3

Will the red 8mm fit my ecm casa v?

Accepted Answer

What is your group head? E61? In that case you need a 8.5 mm gasket.

Question 4

will this fit my astra 1 machine

Accepted Answer

I believe it will, (if the dimensions in my manual are correct!) although I do see some recommendations for the slightly thicker 8.5mm gasket.  These should fit most Astra, Conti, Expobar, Faema, Futurmat, Quickmill, Vibiemme, and other modern E61 groups, but there are quite a few variations among models and manufacturing years.
