## Notes

The Nanoquartz-coated 54mm Breville screen — Ø52mm external, 9mm wall, 7.2mm
centre, 200 µm membrane. Dimensionally identical to the
[BV200IM](/parts/ims-bv200im-shower-screen-breville-54mm/), so the choice between
them is about upkeep, not fit.

## Why this one suits a Breville

The 54mm Brevilles are the machines in this database most likely to be run hard
and cleaned rarely — a built-in grinder and a one-touch workflow means a lot of
shots between proper clean-downs, and the group is compact enough that a dirty
screen shows up in the cup quickly.

IMS's coating is a **hydrorepellent** quartz layer: water leaves the face as
evenly distributed droplets, and oils and fines have nothing to key into. IMS
also states plainly that "Our Nanotech coating is FDA-certified and
quartz-based", which is the reassurance most people actually want before putting
a coated part in the water path.

If you already backflush this machine on a schedule, the uncoated IM does the
same job for less. The coating is for the rest of us.

## Breville sits in two IMS series — get the right one

This is the mistake worth avoiding, because the wrong screen simply will not
seat. IMS separates its Breville range explicitly: the 54mm groups "found in the
Barista Express, Bambino, Pro, and Touch models" take the **BV200 series**, while
"The Oracle, Oracle Touch, and Dual Boiler use a 58mm group head" and take the
**CI200 series** — the coated version of which is the
[CI200NT](/parts/ims-ci200nt-shower-screen-breville-58mm/).

If you are unsure which format you own, check your machine's page here; every
Breville entry records its portafilter diameter from Breville's own
documentation. Or read [Breville 54mm vs 58mm](/guides/breville-54mm-vs-58mm/).

## Which machines are listed, and which aren't

IMS names four model families — Barista Express, Bambino, Pro and Touch — so
those are cross-referenced below, the Bambino Plus included as part of the
Bambino family.

**Deliberately not listed:** the Barista Express Impress, Barista Touch Impress,
Duo-Temp Pro and Infuser. All are 54mm machines and very likely take the same
screen, but IMS does not name them and we do not extend a manufacturer's list on
our own.

This is a **group part** — it fits the grouphead, not the portafilter.

  - Official IMS Filtri product page ('BV200NT SHOWER SCREEN', Competition Line, Nanotech Membrane), read firsthand 2026-08-21. Specs verbatim: 'SKU: BV200NT', 'External Diameter: 52 mm', 'Internal Diameter: 53 mm', 'Wall Height: 9 mm', 'Central Hole: 7.2 mm', 'Passage / Filtration: 200 µm' — identical to the uncoated BV200IM, including the page listing the internal figure as larger than the external (both quoted as printed rather than corrected). Construction verbatim: 'made of a single filtering part in stainless steel obtained through a process of photo-etching … This version features our advanced Nanoquartz coating.'

  - Official IMS Breville/Sage compatibility page, read firsthand 2026-08-11 and re-read 2026-08-21 (unchanged) — the brand-to-series link. States verbatim: 'We offer a dedicated line for 54mm group heads found in the Barista Express, Bambino, Pro, and Touch models. Look for the BV200 series shower screens and our B62...'. The BV200NT is a BV200-series code (SKU prefix BV200, dimensions identical to the BV200IM), so it falls inside the series IMS names for these machines. The same page separates the 58mm Brevilles: 'The Oracle, Oracle Touch, and Dual Boiler use a 58mm group head. For these machines, the CI200 series shower screens and B70 precision baskets provide the best fit'. On the coating it states verbatim: 'Our Nanotech coating is FDA-certified and quartz-based.'

  - Official IMS Shower Code Guide, read firsthand 2026-08-10, which maps shower prefixes to brands: 'BV Breville/Sage, Solis'. Also carries IMS's own caveat verbatim: 'The most common products of each manufacturer are compatible as indicated, but there may be models that use different components which may not always fit some models of home espresso machines.'
