Where can I find the Starbucks Barista Brew head cleaner tool?

I can't seem to find the round plastic cylinder tool that has a srew on it. This tool came with my machine but got lost. It is needed to remove the brew head on the Starbucks Barista for cleaning.

The part number you're looking for is 148000150; if you google that number you'll find several online retailers selling it. That said, you don't need a special tool to remove the brew head screen, any short phillips-head screwdriver will do the trick.

If you don't clean the grounds off of the brew head gasket on a regular basis I could see them drying and caking up to the point that they would need scraping off. With regular cleaning though a soft brush is usually enough.
