Common questions

What does a bottomless portafilter show me?
Because the basket is open underneath, you can see where water breaks through the puck. Streams that spurt from the sides point to uneven distribution or tamping.

How do I know it is the right size?
Look at your current basket: it should measure 58 mm. Then check the machine list for this portafilter.

Is it harder to use than a spouted portafilter?
Slightly. Spray from poor preparation lands on the counter, so use a clean cup or a scale beneath it while you practise distribution, and wear an apron.
