@devalvyas123 - Hi there! The High Extraction Filter Basket is built-in & not removable, I wouldn't say it's those rough industrial welding, definitely with no bumps or lumps. Cleaning is a breeze.
@humphreybradley3060 - Hi there! The standard coffee-to-water ratio is 1:2 for espresso. You can experiment with a slightly different ratio according to your taste. Oh yes, iKape recommends 22g of coffee grounds for their 58mm Bottomless portafilter with a built-in High Extraction Filter Basket. In our opinion, 18g is fine. It's best to do your own experiment/test & decide from there. Cheers!
@wfntube - Hi there! The iKape portafilter is with a built-in (non-removable) high extraction filter basket. As such, it's not possible to remove & insert another HE basket. Cheers!
@mcgKW - Hi there! Thanks for your input & sharing. We have noticed that also but that doesn't bother us. Our iKape magnetic funnel sits nicely onto the portafilter with HE & during the dosing process, the funnel still sits nicely & did not fall off. Cheers!
Is the inner filter sieve welded to thr cup? Is it easy to clean thr welding marks..?

Hi, I normally use 18g of coffee with a ratio of 2:1, IKAPE recommend 22g of coffee, what ratio do you use?

Will this fit flair 58?
@bunyot - Hi there! The iKape Portafilter with High Extraction Filter Basket is incompatible with Flair 58. This is also confirmed by iKape. Cheers!
Can the portafilter fit a high extraction basket from Pesado?

Wow that sucks. Cool handle but the fact you can’t get your own filter basket is awful
What size is it? How many grams fit? 18gr? 19gr?
@Manuel-do3ng - Hi there! The E61 58mm bottomless portafilter is with a 22g High Extraction Filter Basket. Cheers!
I'm very interested in these items
@carrscoffee - Hi there! Pls do drop us an email to discuss & arrange. Cheers!
Got 1 to day. The downside for me is that I can't use my sworks design magnetic funnel on it properly 😅
Did you find an alternative?
@@maxb5947 no, I still use it. It's still attaches but the magnetic just not as strong compare to a VST basket.
