“This is my new go to basket for my gaggia classic bottomless portafilter. Easily holds 17g for my needs. Being ridgeless its easy to remove without prying.”
“Perfect match for my Londinium R lever machine. Will accommodate doses sizes 14 to 20 grams. Seldom use VST’s.
I would also like to give your customer service rep “HEATHER” a huge thank you for handling a misplaced order so efficiently. It is extremely rare to find a service rep this knowledgeable, enthusiastic, focused on making a customer happy, professional and efficient. Thank you Heather!”
“Great basket at a great price. I'm making some of the best espresso I've ever had with this unpressurized basket. You can't go wrong with this company.”
“Seems like this basket is less sensitive to it not being super dry. The stock Gaggia Classic basket would throw off a shot if it wasn't bone dry before adding in coffee. You really had to take a few seconds to dry the inside with a towel before use. The slightest bit of condensation in the basket before adding coffee and the shot would go to slow. I obviously heat my portafilter on the machine before use and also do a quick blank shot to heat the basket. This new basket only requires a quick wipe with a towel without having to spend 10 seconds polishing it dry. More consistent shots for sure. It also takes 18 grams on the Gaggia, keeping a few millimeters between the group head and the puck, where the stock basket took 16. Long story short - more consistent, more forgiving, easier to use, more reliable. No-brainer for less than $5!”
