Portafilters
The portafilter (often referred to as an espresso handle) is an essential component of any espresso machine. It is used to hold the coffee grounds inside the portafilter basket and lock securely into the group head during extraction. Choosing the right portafilter directly impacts the quality of your extraction and the richness of the crema.
An espresso portafilter comes in various designs and sizes to fit different types of machines. This includes the bottomless portafilter (naked portafilter), which allows you to visually monitor the coffee flow and accurately diagnose extraction issues, such as channeling. Additionally, having an extra portafilter on hand significantly speeds up the workflow in a busy cafe and makes training new baristas much easier.
