This 14 gram portafilter basket while not an original La Marzocco part, is quite popular amongst those who have realized it's benefits.
This is the infamous double basket without a retaining ridge. So what's the big deal and why is it so popular? Well let's just say that a little mistake was made, and the ridge was not placed in the basket. Well this was one of those advantageous mistakes that has been beneficial to those who enjoy the perfect espresso. The lack of a retaining ridge allows the use of a 58mm hand tamp and the the pattern and hole aperture of the basket proves to be beneficial to espresso preparation. Perfect for prosumer machines like the Rancilio Silvia and others. We requested another round of mistakes and here they are!
This 14 gram ridge-less double portafilter basket is listed as a La Marzocco part from our vendor, how ever La Marzocco does not produce this part. However if you are interested in wholesale quantities please do not bother our friends at La Marzocco International as they do not produce this part, and we would be happy to fulfill any requests you may have.
