Price range: See on Amazon
What we liked
- + 556-hole slow-flow layout is designed for oily dark roasts, which the listing says can clog ultra-fine precision baskets
- + Covers an 18 to 21g dose range in one basket with a standard 58mm straight, non-tapered wall
- + Ridgeless wall makes it easy to pop out for cleaning or to swap between baskets
Trade-offs
- - Listing says it rewards a slightly finer grind and takes 2 to 3 shots to dial in after switching from a stock basket
- - Tuned for darker roasts, so it is not the obvious choice if you mostly pull light roasts
