cadenceblur Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 Hi V12 The adjustable one sells for $110, so quite pricey, the naked one is $85. This obviously excludes shipping. I have made contact with them and await feedback. V12man 1

I have made contact with them and await feedback.Let me know - I can probably get it picked up and brought to SA from Atlanta early next month - the extra to have another portafilter is probably worth it - especially if it will fit a triple basket - and it will...
GBguy Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) I use a naked portafilter - wouldn't be without it. I don't think it changes the flavour (mine takes the same basket as the regular PF) but it instantly diagnoses channeling, and it's easier to spot the exact point where the shot starts blonding. So, overall, much more consistent pulls - and there's nothing sexier than watching that liquid tiger's eye oozing out. Well, almost nothing. And I haven't been squirted yet, V12. Edit: the other thing is that it's much quicker to clean. Edited July 24, 2014 by GBguy

alleyne Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 This is such an awesome thread, but quite a read to get through it all. Saw this and thought people may find it interesting (apologies if it has been up before). Original Story: http://www.boredpand...ur-josh-renouf/

Frosty Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 This last one is a bit MTN Business like, but still worthy of being somewhat informative.
