Description
A precision espresso basket from VST, designed for consistent extraction across group heads.
Features
- VST precision filters provide consistent extraction across a wide range of concentrations with reduced sediment.
- Designed for ristretto, normale or lungo extraction with little or no grind adjustment at a fixed dose.
- Total open area is matched within ±5% for consistent performance; standard filters typically vary by 50–200% of nominal open area.
- Holes are made using a micro-machining and finishing process.
- Every hole is measured for minimum and maximum area and diameter to ±20 µm; an individual quality-control report is supplied with each filter.
- All holes are checked for circularity, position, open area and blockage.
- The hole pattern is centred within ±1.0 mm and arranged for even extraction throughout the puck.
- A wide outlet angle helps prevent clogging; the patented anti-wear design maintains performance over the product’s lifetime.
- Improved structural integrity.
