Step down your basket diameter to get thicker pucks! This let's you grind coarser for more forgiving extractions and gives increased body.
A custom tamp-through dosing funnel is available as an option to greatly ease puck prep as they are profiled to match the basket's step. Funnels are made from anodized aluminum with orings to provide a compression fit
You can use any tamper with this (49.7mm for the 58/49 size for example). If using a leveling tamper, the outer diameter of the floating collar must be smaller than the inside diameter of the basket (machine side). See table below.

A common question I get asked when looking at this basket is what tamper should you use?
Any 49mm tamper work but I use a 58mm Force Tamper with 49mm base plate. By popular request, a small batch of these base plates will be made to pair with this basket.

Baskets ship by UPS whenever possible. If USPS is selected, a comparable UPS shipping service will be used instead.
