General Questions

The name Gyrozzola is built from ‘Gyro’ and ‘spazzola’ (Italian for brush).

Not yet! Depending on demand, there is a good chance we will offer a version with a steel tray or in a steel drawer in the future.

Tray and lid of the Gyrozzola are designed for long durability. The sponge and cleaning head, on the other hand, are wear items and can be purchased from us. Each Gyrozzola is supplied with one cleaning head and 5 sponges. When used in the household, these parts should should last at least one year.

Questions Regarding Technology

During development of the Gyrozzola, great importance was attached to ensuring that the cleaning elements work with the widest possible range of different filter baskets and that no change of cleaning heads is necessary.

However, there are also a few restrictions:

  • The bottom of the filter basket must be flat (not curved).
  • The basket must not be coated (non-stick coatings can be damaged).
  • The filter basket must not contain any protruding plastic elements.
  • The diameter of the filter basket should be at least 57 mm.
  • For extremely flat filter baskets (6 grams) or baskets with particularly deep steps (e.g. LM1 basket), coffee residue may remain.

The current Gyrozzolas is compatible with most filter baskets with a diameter of at least 57 mm. We plan to offer more sizes in the future.
