Bezzera Portafilter E61 Bottomless – Rosewood
The espresso wells up from the open bottom of the basket, unsplit and glossy, while the warm rosewood handle rests in your hand. A bottomless portafilter that shows the extraction and looks beautiful doing it.
What makes this portafilter special
This bottomless portafilter for the classic E61 group head is made from high-quality chrome-plated brass and carries a handle in Brazilian rosewood. Because the bottom is open, you see the shot unfiltered: an even, honey-like flow shows a clean extraction, while spritzing or uneven running points to channeling. That makes the portafilter the most honest teacher when you're dialling in.
The choice of filter basket noticeably changes the aroma profile – a precise basket brings more clarity to the cup. That's our observation, one of many.

From our roastery: a bottomless portafilter shows most beautifully how densely a shot flows. Full-bodied profiles like Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight build a nice, even crema, our recommendation for the vast majority. Anyone looking for fruit tries Wild Peach. That's our recommendation, one of many.
