IKAPE Basket Filter

The Clockwork design features a unique internal structure that promotes multi-layer extraction. By utilizing 1109 precision laser-cut holes, it encourages more uniform water distribution through the coffee puck, which helps reduce channeling and increases your overall extraction rate.

This basket is available in both 54mm and 58mm sizes. The 54mm version is designed for Breville and Sage machines, while the 58mm version is compatible with E61 group heads, Gaggia, and Rancilio machines. Please verify your portafilter size before purchasing.

Yes, because this is a non-pressurized precision basket, it is more sensitive to grind size than standard stock baskets. You will likely need to dial in your grinder to a slightly finer setting to achieve the ideal flow rate and extraction time.

While it is a professional-grade tool, it is accessible to any home barista looking to improve their espresso quality. Because it is a non-pressurized basket, it requires a consistent grind and proper tamping technique to get the best results.

To keep the 1109 holes clear, rinse the basket with hot water after every use and perform a backflush with an espresso machine cleaning powder periodically. Avoid using abrasive brushes that could damage the precision-cut surface.
