Product Description
Upgrade your Saeco or Starbucks espresso machine by swapping out your 53mm pressurized portafilter handle with this 53mm non-pressurized version made of chrome-plated brass. Using the same baskets that came originally with your espresso machine and a good grinder, you can easily brew traditional shots of espresso with a beautiful crema! This portafilter handle is compatible with the following espresso machines: Saeco Aroma Starbucks Barista Estro Profi Saeco Magic Cappuccino Saeco Gran Crema Saeco Via Veneto Saeco Via Venezia Saeco Classico Saeco Poemia How the Non-Pressurized Portafilter for the Saeco and Starbucks Espresso Machines Works Pop in either the single or double filter basket that was included with your machine. Fill the basket to the top with fresh, finely ground espresso that is as uniform in consistency as possible. Apply 30lbs of pressure when you tamp your coffee...not sure how much 30lbs is? Easily calibrate this by testing your tamp pressure on a bathroom scale. Insert the portafilter into the group head on your espresso machine. Place your cup or shot glasses underneath the spouts and activate the brew switch. It should take about 25 seconds to extract 2 ounces of espresso using the double basket. If the espresso is coming out too quickly, it's because either your grind is too coarse or your tamp too light; if it's coming out too slowly, your grind is too fine or your tamp too tight. Take a sip and enjoy your rich and delicious espresso!
