This stainless steel naked portafilter is designed to fit most E61 groups and is an improvement on the traditional chrome-plated brass as the steel will remain the same even after years of use.
Chrome-plated brass may corrode, exposing the 3% lead found in traditional brass portafilters. Both the body and basket are made from stainless steel so your portafilter will always look immaculate.
Naked portafilters help you to extract the best shot possible. It helps to control and diagnose the extraction of espresso shots and assures a pure espresso with a great crema.
It's an amazing espresso accessory for training, as it exposes channeling. Channeling occurs when coffee grounds are not evenly distributed or properly compressed.

Hi, I see this portafilter has slightly different size compared to Lelit PLA58 Walnut Naked Portafilter generic sold on your site as well. What are the differences? Will both fit Lelit Elizabeth and which one would be a better fit/quality?

Hi Alex, The SS PF is an E61 type so 2mm thicker fins, it has a deeper 18/21g basket and the body is made from Stainless steel. Would not be a good for a new Lelit model as PF would sit at 5 o Clock.
