{"product_id":"naked-bottomless-portafilter-for-expobar","title":"Naked \/ Bottomless Portafilter for Expobar","description":"\u003cp\u003eBottomless or 'naked' portafilters were originally designed as a training tool. Without the obstruction of a spout, it becomes much easier to see what's happening as the water passes through the tamped coffee. This is particularly helpful for spotting channeling - a frequent culprit when it comes to suboptimal extractions. It also adds a beautiful aesthetic to the process of espresso extraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis bottomless portafilter is specifically designed to fit with \u003ca title=\"See our Expobar collection\" href=\"https:\/\/capecoffeebeans.co.za\/collections\/expobar\"\u003eExpobar\u003c\/a\u003e espresso machines with a 58mm EB-61 group head.

If your tamp and distribution aren't exactly right, not only can you get a wonky extraction, you may even experience some spray. That doesn't mean anything is wrong with your portafilter. It, unfortunately, means that there's something wrong with your puck preparation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThose good old spouts that your original portafilter came with mask those issues, for better or for worse, but now that you've upgraded, you're seeing the naked truth, and sometimes it ain't pretty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow do you fix it, you may be wondering? Well, it's all about even distribution and an even tamp. You can achieve this without any extra accessories, but we have some tools that might help with the distribution part at least. These will help you make your extraction Instagram-video-worthy and your espresso exceptionally tasty:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/capecoffeebeans.co.za\/products\/ncd-nucleus-coffee-distributor\" title=\"See the NCD here\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNucleus Coffee Distributor\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/capecoffeebeans.co.za\/products\/motta-coffee-leveling-distribution-tool\" title=\"See the Motta Distribution Tool here\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMotta Coffee Distribution Tool\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/capecoffeebeans.co.za\/products\/normcore-wdt-distribution-tool\" title=\"See the WDT from Normcore here\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNormcore Wire Distribution Tool\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor even tamping, there's nothing quite like a \u003ca title=\"See the Puqpress\" href=\"https:\/\/capecoffeebeans.co.za\/collections\/puqpress\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePuqpress\u003c\/a\u003e!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cape Coffee Beans","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45943935369402,"sku":"PH-1165192","price":999.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/5754\/1818\/files\/Expobar-Generic-Naked-Bottomless-Portafilter-Bottom-View.jpg?v=1780482592","url":"https:\/\/game-online.shop\/products\/naked-bottomless-portafilter-for-expobar","provider":"Game Online Shopping | We Beat Any Price","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
