What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Flow Control Portafilter for significantly enhancing shot consistency and simplifying the espresso making process across Flair models like the PRO 2 and Classic. A key theme is its effectiveness in minimizing channeling, leading to more predictable and delicious extractions with reduced effort. Its forgiving nature accommodates a wider range of grind sizes and tamping techniques, which greatly benefits new manual espresso users by lowering the learning curve. While some advanced users miss the visual feedback of a naked portafilter, the consensus is that the consistent, high quality extractions are a major advantage. This accessory successfully streamlines the brewing art, making it a highly recommended upgrade for compatible Flair owners.
