51mm Espresso Bottomless Portafilter Care Instructions

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Does this portafilter include a filter basket?
Yes! Every portafilter comes pre-equipped with a food-grade stainless steel filter basket optimized for 51mm extractions.
Q: Why is espresso spraying out the sides when I pull a shot?
Spraying or “spurting” is a sign of channeling, not a defect in the portafilter. It usually means your coffee grounds are unevenly distributed or the grind size is slightly off. Try using a WDT (Weiss Distribution Technique) tool to break up clumps and ensure an even tamp.
Q: How do I care for the solid walnut handle?
Because natural walnut wood is sensitive to excess moisture and heat, always hand wash the portafilter head and avoid submerging the wooden handle in water. Periodically rubbing a few drops of food-grade mineral oil onto the handle will keep the natural wood grain looking pristine for years.
