About

This is a reference site on Espresso portafilter baskets: pressurised and unpressurised types, sizes, dose and care, kept deliberately narrow.

Facts on these pages come from published sources, such as makers' documentation, official pages and reference works, and each page links to the ones it used. Every page shows when it was last checked.

There are no ads here, and nothing is for sale.

What you read here is general information. Your own equipment's manual comes first, and where safety or the law calls for a qualified tradesperson, use one.
