12 g Filter Basket – Double Basket for La Marzocco 58 mm Portafilters
Twelve grams of ground coffee, evenly distributed, the water finding its way through a flat bed. The basket determines how much coffee sits in the portafilter and how the water flows through it.
This double basket for two cups is designed for around 12 g. It measures 70 mm at the rim and 19 mm in height, the size of La Marzocco 58 mm portafilters. As a replacement basket or as a second basket for smaller doses.
Basket choice changes the flavour profile. We brew by weight ratio, for us usually below 1:2, and adjust the grind size until it tastes right. Every shot remains unique. Our opinion is one of many.

Tip from the roastery: With 12 g in the basket, it quickly shows how much body a bean brings. For dense, chocolatey espresso we roast Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, for maximum body without acidity Very Nutty. That is our recommendation, one of many.
