Know before you buy
This portafilter is designed for machines with an E61 group head. While it is an OEM accessory for Rocket Espresso machines, it is compatible with most other standard E61-style group heads.
A bottomless portafilter exposes the underside of the filter basket, allowing you to watch the espresso flow in real-time. This is the most effective way to identify channeling or uneven extraction, helping you refine your grind and tamping technique.
Yes, it includes a 58mm triple shot basket with a 21-gram capacity. This larger basket is ideal for those who prefer higher-dose shots.
No, it is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing it with warm water and a mild detergent to preserve the chrome plating and the integrity of the handle.
Because there are no spouts, there is no surface area for the espresso to contact before hitting your cup, which can result in a slightly hotter shot and more crema. It also provides extra clearance, making it easier to fit taller cups or scales under the group head.
