{"product_id":"flair-pro-3-full-brewing-head","title":"Flair PRO 3 Full Brewing Head","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eThe Flair PRO 3 Full Brewing Head is a complete brew head assembly for Flair PRO, pro-enabled Signature, and pro-enabled Classic lever espresso makers, serving as either a replacement for a worn head or an upgrade path from an earlier PRO generation. It is not compatible with the Flair NEO or Flair Flex.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUpgrade or Replace With the Full Assembly\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplacing a brew head piecemeal means tracking down individual parts and hoping they match. The PRO 3 Full Brewing Head ships as a complete, matched assembly: every component that contacts your coffee or carries pressure is included together, so the upgrade is straightforward and the result is consistent with a factory PRO 3 setup. For owners of an earlier PRO generation, this is the direct route to PRO 3 brewing performance without purchasing a new machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePressure Feedback Built In\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PRO 3 Pressure Gauge and Stem is part of this assembly, giving you real-time feedback on extraction pressure as you pull the lever. On a manual lever machine, that readout is the primary tool for developing and repeating a shot profile. Knowing where you are in the pressure curve lets you adjust your technique pull by pull rather than relying on taste alone to diagnose what changed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBottomless Portafilter for Diagnosis and Dose Verification\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included PRO Bottomless Portafilter exposes the basket exit during extraction, making channeling and uneven distribution immediately visible. Paired with the PRO Funnel and Dosing Cup\/Tamper, the assembly supports a consistent dose-and-distribute workflow before the shot even starts. The Stainless Steel Dispersion Screen and Preheat Funnel round out the thermal management side, helping bring the brew chamber to temperature before pulling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete matched assembly:\u003c\/strong\u003e all brew-side components ship together as one unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePRO 3 Pressure Gauge and Stem:\u003c\/strong\u003e real-time pressure readout during extraction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePRO Bottomless Portafilter:\u003c\/strong\u003e exposes basket exit for shot diagnosis\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePRO 3 Thin Cylinder and Stainless Steel Plunger:\u003c\/strong\u003e core pressure-building components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePreheat Funnel and Dispersion Screen:\u003c\/strong\u003e supports thermal preparation before pulling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePRO Funnel and Dosing Cup\/Tamper:\u003c\/strong\u003e assists consistent dosing and distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eComponent\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eNotes\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePRO 3 Thin Cylinder\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCore brew chamber body\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eStainless Steel Plunger\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePressure-generating piston\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePRO 3 Pressure Gauge and Stem\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eReal-time extraction pressure readout\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePRO Bottomless Portafilter\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eNaked portafilter for shot diagnosis\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePRO Removable Stainless Steel Spout\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAttaches to portafilter for directed pour\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePRO Funnel and Dosing Cup\/Tamper\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDosing and light distribution tool\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eStainless Steel Dispersion Screen\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDistributes water evenly across the puck\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePreheat Funnel\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAssists thermal preparation of the cylinder\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: the stainless steel tamper is not included in this assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe PRO 3 Full Brewing Head suits Flair PRO, pro-enabled Signature, and pro-enabled Classic owners who want to replace a damaged or worn brew head, or upgrade from an earlier PRO generation to PRO 3 components (including the pressure gauge) without buying a new machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThe PRO 3 Full Brewing Head is not compatible with the Flair NEO or Flair Flex. It does not include a stainless steel tamper; that must be sourced separately.

It is not compatible with the Flair NEO or Flair Flex. If you are unsure whether your specific machine is pro-enabled, contact CoffeeRoast Co. before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDoes this replace my entire espresso maker, or just the brew head?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Flair PRO 3 Full Brewing Head replaces only the brew head: the component that holds the coffee puck and generates pressure. The Flair lever frame, base, and stand are not included. This assembly mounts onto a compatible existing Flair frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eIs a tamper included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe PRO 3 Full Brewing Head includes a PRO Funnel and Dosing Cup\/Tamper for dosing and light distribution, but does not include a dedicated stainless steel tamper. A separate tamper is needed for puck preparation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat does the pressure gauge add to the brewing process?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe PRO 3 Pressure Gauge and Stem, included in this assembly, displays extraction pressure in real time as you pull the lever on your Flair manual espresso maker. This readout lets you monitor and adjust your technique shot by shot, making it easier to develop a repeatable pressure profile rather than relying solely on taste to identify what changed between pulls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhy would I upgrade to a PRO 3 brew head from an earlier PRO generation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe PRO 3 Full Brewing Head brings PRO 3 components, including the PRO 3 Thin Cylinder and integrated pressure gauge, to an existing compatible Flair frame.
