Which Breville machines does it fit?

It fits 54mm three-ear groups, including the Barista Express, Barista Pro, Barista Touch, Bambino, Bambino Plus, Infuser and Duo Temp Pro, plus the listed Platinum 8 series models. It does not fit 58mm machines such as the Dual Boiler.

Why use a bottomless portafilter?

With no spouts, you see the whole extraction. Channeling, spurts and blonding show up immediately, which makes it easier to correct grind, dose and distribution.

Does it come with a basket?

The set includes the bottomless head, a filter basket and a grip. The basket is 54mm to match Breville groups.

Will my shots taste different?

The basket and head change how the puck is held, not the coffee itself. Taste improves only if you use what you see to fix puck prep and grind.

Can I change the handle?

Yes. The M10 thread lets you fit other handles, and the grip and head detach for cleaning.

Why does coffee spray out the bottom?

Spray comes from an uneven puck: poor distribution, too coarse a grind or a worn basket. A bottomless portafilter exposes the problem rather than causing it.
