Gemini Espresso Maker Spare Parts

Regular price $5.00

Over time, your Classic or Induction Gemini Espresso Maker may require replacement parts to keep it functioning at optimal performance. Extend the life of your Gemini with replacement parts to keep it running smoothly, ensuring a perfect brew every time.

Aluminum Funnel -  This sits in the lower chamber of the Classic Gemini, holding the ground coffee. As the water heats, it channels pressurized water up through the grounds to brew the espresso.

This aluminum funnel is only for the Classic Gemini—it is not suitable for the Induction version.

Reducer Filter -  Fits inside the aluminum funnel to reduce the capacity of the coffee basket, allowing you to brew a smaller serving.

Important:  The reducer sits under the ground coffee. It is not a tamper and should never be placed on top of the coffee grounds. 

Improper use may damage the Reducer Filter or your brewer. Boston General Store is not responsible for any damage resulting from misuse or use outside of its intended purpose.

Silicone Gasket -  Sits between the upper and lower halves of the Gemini, creating a tight seal. It prevents steam and water from leaking so proper pressure can build for brewing.

Silicone Gasket + Filter -  The silicone gasket sits between the two halves of the Gemini to create a tight, pressure-safe seal. The filter sits inside the funnel below it, holding the coffee grounds and controlling water flow for extraction.

The Italian-made Gemini espresso maker—often referred to as the “Gemini Express”—emerged in Milan in 1968 as a distinctive stovetop design that could brew and dispense espresso directly into two cups simultaneously. Its compact construction and dual-spout form made it a design icon of mid-century Italian coffee culture, reflecting the era’s focus on functional elegance and social coffee drinking.
