Know before you buy
The funnel is designed to fit most standard 58mm portafilter baskets. As long as your basket has a standard 58mm diameter, the six neodymium magnets will provide a secure, stable attachment.
Yes, the funnel is designed to sit on top of the basket during the dosing and WDT process to prevent spills. You will need to remove it before using your tamper to ensure a level, even puck.
Absolutely. The straight-walled design is specifically engineered to provide enough clearance for WDT tools, allowing you to stir and distribute your grounds thoroughly without them spilling over the sides of the basket.
Anodized aluminum is highly durable and resistant to the wear and tear of a daily coffee routine. While it is a robust material, it should be cleaned with a soft cloth to maintain its finish and prevent surface scratches over time.
The six neodymium magnets are quite strong and provide a reliable, snap-on connection. It stays firmly in place even when subjected to the vibrations of a grinder like the Lagom P64 or P100.
