Key Benefits & Features
-
Optimized Flat Bottom Shape: Designed specifically by IMS to create the perfect ratio between the base and height of the coffee puck. The flat-bottom cylindrical shape exploits the entire coffee puck, boosting extraction yield while facilitating dry pucks for easy knock-out.
-
Exclusive Patented Perforation: Features 715 precision-cut circular holes (0.30mm diameter) arranged in a hexagonal pattern. The conical cross-section of each hole prevents clogging and guarantees an even flow rate.
-
Competition-Grade Calibration: Every basket is relaminated and recalibrated to strict competition standards, ensuring zero variance between shots.
-
Sanitary Electropolished Finish: Undergoes wet vibrofinishing (tumbling with ceramic inserts) and electropolishing. This results in an incredibly smooth, non-contaminating surface that resists coffee oil buildup and is incredibly easy to clean.
-
Perfect Tamper Fit: The 60mm inner body diameter perfectly accommodates precision tampers sizing between 58mm and 58.4mm.
