verybarista IMS Big Bang Precision Filter Basket for 58mm portafilters, 20-22g. double espresso (h25.5)

A very well made filter basket that is giving me consistent results. Fits my 58 mm portafiller perfectly and is ideal for my preferred 18.5 g dose.

This is a brilliant piece of kit, every serious coffee user should consider having this. Seems expensive but worth every penny for a constantly perfect cup of coffee.

It’s good but note it is a smooth basket so it may come off when you knock the puck out. It works well with my bottomless portafilter but not with my two cups portafilter.

A lot better than the one that came with my machine Fracino Pacino fits good in the 58mm porrafilter I use about 19gr coffee 2 small cups.

Although I have not been able to use these as yet, I think that they will do a great job. Unfortunatley, they don't quite fit into my portafilter. They won't push down far enough for me to be able to lock the portafilter into the group head. My options are to either spend more money and obtain a bottomless compatible portafilter and gamble if it will work with my machine, try to return them as they are not cheap to buy or keep them on the basis that my current espresso machine may not last a long as perhaps I would like it to (speaking from experience, 12 months seems to be the dead line literally). I know that if I were to purchase a good semi-professional or professional machine these filters will fit, but I might have to store them for some time before that prospect comes into fluition. The filters themselves are of very good quality from the feel and look of them, but I can't really review the outcome of using them as I can't use them at this point in time.

Good product but doesn't fit into breville 58mm group head as standard.

Great basket for medium to dark roast espresso.

Really easy to use, makes some of the beans I've had from my local roaster much easier and more forgiving to use. Especially when it's early in the morning and I don't want to faff around. Good value for money, seems really durable and works better than expected.
