51mm Bottomless Portafilter 3 ears Only Compatible with Delonghi Dedica EC680/EC685 | Filter Basket 0.3mm Pores

Great product, good quality. Works great w a separate smaller filter I got. Very good design. Delonghi dedica machine

It works perfectly with my DeLonghi Dedica Arte. Much much better in term of taste compared to the pressurized portafilter included with my coffee maker. But it needs some trial and error at the beginning.

Accurate machining, 3-leaf portafilter with prongs, measuring 5.5mm at the thick end and 4.0mm at the tapered end.Fits my Coffee Gator Espresso machine. Plastic handle feels light, and can be unscrewed from the metal basket holder. This portafilter has a standard basket retention spring, unlike some others in this size category.The included basket has a ring around the top inner circumference, rather than the smooth curved top surface you might see on other baskets, and the outer edge of the basket is a little rough. Also, there is an inner ridge near the bottom of the basket, which could potentially affect your flow. If these things are a concern for you (for example, if you use a self-leveling tamp), you may want to upgrade the basket. If you're an enthusiast, you probably already have a better basket in mind.Overall, fair quality naked portafilter. The free basket is nothing special.

Sturdy, stainless steel bottomless coffee filter that attaches well to the Delonghi 685 espresso machine. The strainers are solid enough and the holes are fine enough for long-term use making good expresso. I purchased mine with both the interchangeable 2-shot & 1-shot strainers available from the same seller. A bonus is that the one-shot strainer fits into the Delonghi coffee filter that came with the machine - no modification needed.One small negative is that there is no notch in the filter to facilitate removal of the strainers as there are on the OEM filter. Also be aware that the filter handle is black plastic - not wood. As the handle seems fairly heavy and well-made, that's not a negative for me. Had I wanted a more esthetic filter, I've have ordered one of the several more pricey brands.In the first couple of uses, the filter has produced rich tasting expresso. (And yes, the taste is fuller & richer than achieved with the pressurized strainer that comes with the Delonghi 685. There was no leaking from the edges of the filter or spraying from the base of the unit as some reviewers have noted with other brands of filter.Overall, this is a very satisfactory product and I'd recommend it.

Works with a Brim 15 bar machine. I got a little spray on the first shot. So I adjusted my grind one click coarser and increased my dose by 1 gram. Seems to have done the trick. So far, I'm very happy with this purchase.

While well made and fitting well, it leaves a mess and does not improve the look or taste of the espresso. I wanted to give it a shot (pun intended) despite some of the comments, but I have switched back to my old one. Even after adjusting grind and dosage, it still spatters espresso, doesn't leave proper crema, and is just disappointing. Additionally, it is deep which prevents the tamper from properly doing its job as it hangs up on the portafilter. Perhaps it is better on a higher end machine (Delonghi 680 series here), but I wish I had saved my money.

I bought this once for my Delonghi Dedica EC 685, it works well. My espresso is now amazing. Just a little bit of advice from my side. After trying different ways to solve the sprouting issue. Nothing worked; later, I also experienced portafilter dropping after pressure build up. Then I tried to use espresso press filters, and it solved the issue. Now there is no sprouting and brewing is very consistent

I returned this product. I needed it for a Delonghi Dedica machine. It didn’t fit.
