Walnut 58mm E61 Bottomless Portafilter with 18g Basket
This 58mm bottomless portafilter lets you observe espresso flow at the basket, helping identify channeling and assess extraction. It has a walnut handle, a food-grade 304 stainless steel body and an included 18g double-shot basket. Channeling or spurting can occur when puck preparation needs adjustment and is not, by itself, evidence of a portafilter defect.
