E&B Lab Super Fine Double Portafilter Basket - 18/20g

by E&B Lab
$33.00

The E&B Lab Super-Fine (SF) filter comes from the idea of creating a filter with a higher filtration power than the standard 250 to 350 μm.  The Super-Fine filter has a filtration capacity of 170-μm that is achieved by combining a 170 μm membrane with IMS holing technology.  The number and distribution of the holes are designed to support the filtering membrane and balance the flow.

1st Knock

The main reason I purchased this basket was because of the finishing design. My puck will pop out on the 1st knock most of the time. I find this to be true for most tapered baskets, but the E&B has much less break-up stuck to the basket meaning minimal clean up.The screen at the bottom of this basket does indeed help filter better. I have less sediment at the bottom of my cup. One thing that I noticed though is that the lip at the top of the basket is taller. My portafilter required more torque to seat in the grouphead. I had to replace my 8.5mm grouphead gasket with an 8mm so that my portafilter locks in the usual position. This wasn't a big deal as I was looking for one to replace on the next backflush, so that got push up on my scheduled maintenance. I'm sure had I bought the 8.5mm gasket then the E&B I would be more frustrated to have to buy another gasket right away. So this I think is something to be aware of. I also find that shots are slightlly less astringent. I have expiremented with a few baskets and so far the E&B Super Fine has produced the best shot extraction experience. I would have given this a 5 star had it not been for the portafilter seating problem.
