Know before you buy
These filters are specifically engineered for LELIT58 group machines. While they are 58mm in diameter, they are optimized for the specific basket geometry and locking mechanisms of Lelit portafilters.
The blind filter is a solid basket used for backflushing your espresso machine. It is an essential maintenance tool that allows you to clean the group head and internal valves using espresso machine detergent.
Non-pressurized filters rely on a precise grind size and proper tamping to create resistance for extraction. Pressurized filters are more forgiving, using a secondary valve to create pressure, which is helpful if you are using pre-ground coffee or a grinder that lacks fine-tuning.
Yes, changing the dose size often requires a slight adjustment to your grind setting to maintain consistent extraction time. You will likely need to dial in your grind slightly finer or coarser depending on which basket volume you choose.
The collaboration with IMS ensures high-precision manufacturing, specifically regarding the hole diameter and distribution. This consistency helps prevent channeling and promotes a more even, balanced extraction compared to standard stock baskets.
