IMS Precision Ridgeless Triple Basket - 20/22g
Part of I.M.S.'s exclusive "E&B" (Espresso and Brewing) line, this ridgeless triple basket was engineered for Kees Van Der Westen portafilters and group heads, but its 58mm/58.4mm sizing and 28mm depth mean it drops into any standard 58mm portafilter deep enough to accept it.

PRO TIPS
- The flat, ridgeless bottom isn't just cosmetic — I.M.S. designed it to balance the puck's base-to-height ratio for the full capacity, which helps the puck dry and release cleanly on knockout instead of leaving a wet ring stuck to the basket wall.
- Before buying, measure your portafilter's internal depth — this basket needs a full 28mm to seat properly; in a shallower basket holder it will sit proud and prevent the portafilter from locking into the group correctly.
