A bottomless (naked) portafilter removes the traditional spouts, allowing espresso to flow directly from the basket into your cup. This gives you instant visual feedback during extraction so you can dial in faster and more accurately.

Benefits include:

* Identify channeling immediately
* Improve distribution and tamping technique
* Achieve thicker crema and cleaner flavour
* Simplify cleaning and maintenance

It’s one of the most effective upgrades for improving espresso consistency.

How to use (quick guide)
1. Dose: 18–20g.
2. Distribute & tamp: Distribution tool → level → tamp evenly.
3. Pull the shot: Aim for a 1:2 ratio (e.g., 18g in → 36g out) in ~25–30 sec, adjusting grind as needed
