Rocket Bottomless Portafilter incl. double basket – 58 mm naked portafilter
Dark, dense drops at the bottom of the basket that merge into a single stream: with the bottomless portafilter you see the extraction before you taste it.
The Rocket Espresso bottomless portafilter is designed for Rocket machines, has a 58 mm diameter and comes with a 21 g double basket. Without spouts, the stream shows whether the water runs evenly through the puck.
What you see is a hint, not a verdict. What counts is the taste in the cup and the brew ratio, with 1:2 as a starting point. Our opinion is one of many. Coffee Coaching Club is a Rocket partner in Switzerland.

Tip from the roastery: At the open basket you see how a coffee runs. We recommend Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight, full-bodied with chocolate and nut. If you want maximum body without acidity, take Very Nutty. For the curious: Wild Peach, fruity and lively. This is our recommendation, one of many.
