HUGH, by IMS 51 mm Precision Filter Basket Competition Series Coffee Filter Basket Stainless Steel Portafilter Basket, 16-22 grams compatible with Leverpresso H30

...for my Delonghi ECP 3630 portafilter, once I removed the plastic inside. The retainer spring inside the portafilter needed a very minor re-bending so that this basket was easier to remove and did not fall out accidentally.I paid the extra $5 because of the additional machining to the basket holes.This portafilter is a great addition to a low cost espresso maker. FYI; I removed the metal portion of the steam wand in order to expose the new, longer rubber nipple, then added a thin wire to secure the nipple in place. The wire keeps the nipple from flying off under steam pressure. This changed allows for latte art!

Great little basket. It DOES make a difference in the shot quality. I was skeptical, but now I'm a believer.I use it for both my PicoPresso and MiiCoffee EON.

I use a Delonghi Dedica espresso machine and have always been unsure about the best basket size. Until I tried this one, I found that the coffee brewed with it is truly excellent! This could be due to the larger number of holes, each of the same size. I can use between 17 and 19 grams of coffee depending on the roast level, making this the perfect size! Larger baskets (I also bought the IMS 20-26g basket) seem to force a coarser grind, while smaller sizes force a finer grind. This basket is just right! It is the best fit for the Delonghi Dedica!

This basket is amazing!!! I’m drinking real espresso for the first time ever from my cheap Deloghni. Two shots from this basket taste stronger than 4 from my old pressurized basket. I’ve stopped getting Starbucks because the taste is disappointing compared to home.I use this basket with my Deloghni EPC3630. I did not have to buy a new portafilter. I used a screw driver and removed the black plastic thing inside and the wire that sits under the Deloghni provided stainless steel pressurized basket.I cannot believe the quality of espresso I’m now getting from my cheapo espresso machine!

You can ditch the KLARSTEIN Passionata's pressurized basket and make some proper espresso with this basket. At first, locking it into the machine is a bit stiff but it seems to be breaking in after one use. Instantly makes a difference in your shot pull even if it's not dialed in yet.

Fits tight in casabrews CM5418, but the amount of flavor this basket puts out is insane! Must buy

So I previously had a 51mm 14g IMS precision basket with very good results. I’ve decided to go for a bigger just for brewing larger espressos. It had a learning curve more than I thought with channeling everywhere. I was in touch with HUGHINC IG page and recommend me to try different dose and grind size. After several shots and some research I found that the puck clearance or ‘overhead’ was affecting. I started with 18g and went all the way up to 22g and play with the grind size, at that point I managed to make good shots without any channeling. Shots are definitely sweeter and more complex in flavor. Fits amazingly my dedica 685

Amazon naively shipped the basket in a soft bubble wrap envelope as if they ship items for the very first time. They also listed the item "arriving today" for 3 extra days in a row. This gave ample time for the the merchandise to get crushed in transport by amazon or usps and cancel the benefit of their own transport service.Speaking about the filter itself, it is a quality product. I like the fact that it does not taper at the bottom which lets me vary the coffee amount in a wider range. Unf, the item I received was warped because of the negligent packaging and the extra transport treatment. It is returnable, but the whole endeavor was a waste of time which costs more than the filter itself.
