Quick Overview
The double basket (17g) will fit most 58mm portafilters, the triple basket (20g) will most likely require a bottomless portafilter, but please check manufacturer specifications on your machine to be sure.
Because of all the variables in coffee and espresso production, true consistency can be a lofty goal. As a leading manufacturer of commercial espresso machines, La Marzocco knows this better than anyone, as it recognizes that trying to minimize variance makes for happier coffee drinkers. This is the reason behind the La Marzocco Strada Portafilter Basket. Using laser precision, the Strada Portafilter Basket eliminates inconsistency in hole size as well as positioning.

How the La Marzocco Strada Portafilter Basket - 58mm Works
Fill it up just like you would a standard portafilter:
- Lightly fill the portafilter basket to the top.
- Use your finger to gently even out the grounds.
- Lightly press the tamper into the grounds and find a good center point.
- Evenly apply approximately 30 lbs. of pressure to the grounds.

Deep basket makes a difference
Review by RLB coffee lover -
Quality Value Price This is the highest quality filter basket I have seen. It comes along with data which confirms proper & consistent hole size of YOUR actual filter. I also love the deeper basket. It has a 17g capacity and its much easier to get a higher dose of coffee tamped just right without having to struggle to get it in the group head. I use it with my Rancilio and a Rancilio bottomless portafilter and it worked like a dream. I should caution it does require a bottomless or naked portafilter for my set up, but if you are considering this product you probably already have one. All and all I would strongly recommend this to the home enthusiast.
Pros:
Deep Basket, Great Taste, Highest Standards, Commercial Grade
Cons:
Need naked portafilter(Posted on 1/4/12)
