Know before you buy
This portafilter is designed for machines that use a standard 58mm group head, including most E61 group head models. We recommend verifying your machine's specific portafilter size before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.
A bottomless portafilter allows you to observe the espresso extraction in real-time. This visibility helps you identify issues like channeling or uneven distribution, allowing you to refine your grind and tamping technique for a better shot.
To maintain the wood's finish, avoid soaking the portafilter in water or running it through the dishwasher. Simply wipe the handle with a damp cloth after use and occasionally apply a food-safe wood oil to keep the walnut hydrated and prevent cracking.
The SUS304 stainless steel body is durable and provides excellent thermal stability. It effectively retains heat during the brewing process, helping to maintain a consistent temperature for your espresso.
Yes, it is an excellent tool for those looking to improve their barista skills. While it is less forgiving than a spouted portafilter, the visual feedback it provides is the fastest way to learn how to dial in your coffee and achieve a perfect extraction.
