Engineered with unmatched precision and consistency, these filter baskets are the choice of World Barista Champions and elite cafés worldwide — the official filter basket of the 2013–2021 World Barista Championship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDescription\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach VST Precision Filter Basket is micro-machined to perfection, individually scanned and measured for hole and extraction uniformity. VST remains the only company in the world to image every hole of every filter it produces. Every filter of a given size has an identical open area to every other filter of the same size — so every shot pulls exactly as you’d expect, and exactly like every shot pulled with another VST basket. Dial in a recipe once and it holds across baskets: your 100,000th pull will be exactly the same as your first. Other baskets change total open area as they age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsistent extraction performance over a wide range of concentration with reduced sediment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtracts properly as a ristretto, normale or lungo with minimal or no change in grind setting at a fixed dose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal open area matched within ±5% (typical baskets vary 50–200%)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnables precision use of volumetric-style espresso machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHole pattern centered to ±1.0 mm and oriented for uniform extraction through the entire puck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% of holes measured on every filter to a precision of typically ±20 µm; filters outside tolerance are recycled, never sold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWide outlet angle prevents clogging and allows fast cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from 20% thicker food-grade stainless steel; patented anti-wear design for uniform performance over the basket’s life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpent pucks release easily with a light tap on your knock box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIncluded\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter-specific QC report in every box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique serial number referencing QC reports and image data to guarantee authenticity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-year, zero-defect warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVST Filter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDose (g)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHeight (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOutside (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTamper (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20g Competition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e19–21\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e58.4 (+0, −0.05)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18g Double\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e17–19\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e58.4 (+0, −0.05)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to fit most 58mm portafilters (check the height spec against your portafilter depth)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20g and 18g fit most La Marzocco, Synesso, Nuova Simonelli, Faema, La Cimbali and Rancilio standard portafilters; some Faema, La Cimbali and Rancilio may require a bottomless portafilter for sizes above 18g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoes \u003cstrong\u003enot\u003c\/strong\u003e fit 49, 53 or 54mm portafilters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended tamper: 58.40 (+0.00, −0.05)mm flat-face\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eVST Precision Filters are protected by U.S. patents and certified for safety and compliance with RoHS, ECHA REACH, EU General (German, Italian, French) and U.S. FDA standards.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"VST","offers":[{"title":"18g Double","offer_id":47434117415074,"sku":"VST-58-18G-R","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20g Competition","offer_id":47434117447842,"sku":"VST-58-20G-R","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/7635\/2930\/files\/p-2044-vst_1.jpg?v=1784130120","url":"https:\/\/club36point0.com\/products\/vst-precision-filter-basket-ridged","provider":"Club 36.0","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
