Crema bottomless portafilter 54 mm (Sandalwood) with fifteen degree tilt to the handle

This 54mm bottomless portafilter was designed to work with the Sage Barista Express, Barista Pro, Barista Touch, Bambino Plus, Infuser and Duo-Temp Pro. It is made from 304 stainless steel, and all natural walnut handles. This improved version of the Crema bottomless portafilter has a fifteen degree tilted handle which provides more grip and ergonomics. 

Bottomless (aka naked) portafilters are an essential tool for identifying and correcting extraction problems that cannot be seen with standard spouted portafilters. Issues such as under- or overdosing, inconsistent or incorrect grind size, uneven tamp pressure, or unevenly distributed grinds, can all cause improper extraction.

One of the most common visible signs that you're experiencing extraction issues is through channeling (or spurting), which cannot be seen with a standard spouted portafilter. Exposing the bottom of your portafilter basket will allow you to witness these extraction issues first hand, providing an opportunity to diagnose and improve the quality of your shots.

FILTER BASKET INCLUDED!

PLEASE NOTE: Channeling and spurting can be very messy, but are EXTREMELY common. This is not a defect of the portafilter itself, but instead is your coffee telling you that there's room for improvement in your preparation process (grind size, tamping, distribution, etc.).Crema Coffee Products and Blommers Coffee Roasters are not affiliated, associated, authorized, endorsed by, or in any way connected with Breville Pty Limited (Breville) or Sage Appliances GmbH (Sage), or any of its subsidiaries or its affiliates.
