When the plunger tabs are even slightly off-axis, the stem tabs cannot seat cleanly as the lever rises, which can disrupt the pressure seal and introduce inconsistency into the shot. The 58 Plunger Key removes the guesswork by giving you a physical reference point to rotate the plunger into the correct position before each brew.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSimple to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInsert the tabs of the Plunger Key into the plunger tab holes, then rotate until the plunger tabs face front and back.
