What we liked

  • + Listing gives exact specs: 661 evenly spaced 0.30mm holes, 24mm height, 70mm edge, AISI 304 steel, food-safe certified
  • + Nano-quartz coating is described as non-stick and resistant to corrosion, which helps the puck release and the basket rinse clean
  • + 24mm height is stated to suit portafilters with a slightly shallower depth, so it should fit many spouted 58mm handles

Trade-offs

  • - Among the most expensive baskets in this guide, and it ships as a single basket with no puck screen or paper filters
  • - Ridgeless wall is held only by spring tension, so it can pull out of the portafilter when you knock the puck
