Coffee Machine Baskets

About

Coffee Machine Filter Baskets The filter basket is where your espresso begins, and a quality basket makes a real difference to how evenly your coffee extracts. Our range covers precision baskets, standard replacements, blind baskets for cleaning, and shower screens, from trusted names like VST, Lelit, De'Longhi and Pesado. Whether you're chasing more consistent extractions, replacing a worn basket, or picking up the parts you need to keep your machine clean, there's an option here to suit your setup. Precision & Standard Filter Baskets Filter baskets come in a range of sizes, measured by the dose they're designed to hold, commonly 15g, 18g, 20g and 22g . Matching your basket to your dose helps you get an even, well-distributed puck and a balanced shot. Precision baskets like the VST range are laser-measured for consistent hole size and spacing, which promotes more even water flow and repeatable results, a popular upgrade for anyone dialling in their espresso. Ridgeless versions make it easier to use a bottomless portafilter or fit a puck screen, while standard baskets are a reliable replacement for everyday brewing. Sizing also needs to match your portafilter, with 58mm the most common, so it's worth checking your machine if you're unsure. Blind Baskets & Shower Screens Beyond brewing, a couple of key parts keep your machine performing. A blind basket (a solid basket with no holes) is used to backflush machines with a solenoid valve, clearing coffee oils from the group head as part of regular cleaning. Shower screens like the Pesado high-diffusion range sit in the group head and spread water evenly across the puck, and keeping them clean or replacing a worn one helps maintain a consistent extraction. Together they're small parts that make a noticeable difference to both your coffee and the life of your machine.
