The Brewspire Flow Control Ball in Black Oak brings a bold, modern edge to your ECM or Profitec espresso machine. Black Oak is oak that’s been treated to a deep, uniform charcoal finish — the grain still shows through, giving it texture and depth rather than looking painted or plastic. Next to the chrome and brushed steel of your machine, it commands attention.

It mounts exactly like the other Brewspire balls — unscrew the stock flow control knob and thread on the Black Oak ball. The spherical form is ergonomic and satisfying to turn during pressure profiling — more deliberate than a flat paddle.

Lightly oiled and finished to a matte sheen, the Black Oak ball resists fingerprints and handles daily use without fuss. For machines dressed in black or stainless, this is the natural choice.
