Breville Craft Series the Naked Portafilter

A bottomless portafilter exposes the underside of the filter basket, allowing you to watch the espresso extraction in real time. This visual feedback makes it much easier to spot channeling or uneven extraction, helping you refine your grind size and tamping technique for better shots.

This portafilter is designed for Breville machines that use a 54mm group head. It is compatible with models like the Barista Express, Barista Pro, Barista Touch, Bambino, and Infuser, but you should always double-check your machine's specific portafilter size before purchasing.

Yes, because it is made of natural wood, you should avoid soaking it in water or putting it in the dishwasher. Simply wipe the handle down with a damp cloth after use and occasionally apply a food-safe wood oil to keep the walnut finish looking fresh and preventing it from drying out.

There is a slight learning curve, as a bottomless portafilter is less forgiving than a standard spouted one. If your puck preparation—specifically your grind distribution and tamping—is inconsistent, you may experience some spraying or splashing, but this is exactly what helps you identify and fix those issues.

No, this product is the portafilter handle assembly only. You will need to transfer the filter basket from your existing Breville portafilter or purchase a separate basket that fits the 54mm size.
